is your truck body steel or plastic?

 

Been assigned to this one for 3 years

 

Not mine ... but I'm playing around with some new photo capture techniques and thought I'd throw this one up taken I-45 SE of Corsicana. The master capture is not as sharp as I'd like due to the nature of trying to freeze speeding trucks while capturing 'motion", and the jpg downgrade export compounds this issue for the purposes here, but I'm getting closer to developing a style and technique that allows me to successfully capture considerably more than I have to toss.

 

Pulled the box off this one today. I bought it early last year. Getting ready for some off season maintenance and maybe some paint. She's not a looker but runs strong. It changed hands lot of times. I can see faded marks from atleast 3 companies on the door. As far as I can tell it spent it's early life in Buffalo NY running fuel.




Another purchase last summer. This is after removing a ton of lettering. It's a little much for my taste, but as long as it runs good.

 

Still needs alot of work before I start to use her.

 

Here's my 1st truck. Kinda fell into the deal on a trade. It had a sleeper originally, but it was converted to a day cab at some point. '89 FLD 120. She's got a 3406B/13spd. Havent figured out the rear gears, but they seem pretty deep. I keep going back and forth on converting to a dump truck or keeping it a tractor and maybe trying to do some local/semi local hauling.

 

Look into pulling a hopper, end-dump or even chips. Looks great for an 89.
