Just a Photo

[DavidGB]

Hello all,
On Friday I had my truck out and before taking it to a cruise in in Belfast, Me I took it up to Mt. Battie for some pictures. Since I always love looking at pictures of other folk's trucks, I didn't think anyone would think too badly of me for posting one here of mine. Not much of a photographer, but it was a beautiful day and a great view. (That's a bit of Camden's harbor in the background.) The truck lives near the SW base of the mountain. You are looking south.

Truck looks great! Drivetrain all original?

[DavidGB]

Thank you,
The truck is unrestored, but has had things done to it over the course of it's 69 year life. The engine is a reman and the bed is a second series. Various mirrors have come and gone and some paint has been done but not all.

What tires and rims? Great pic! Looks like a fun place to drive. Thanks for posting.

Just a photo and another.

Hi,
Tires are michelin XML's and rims I had made by Marsh Racing Wheels in Arkansas. They are bead locks. The whole area is quite beautiful, but I love going to the top of this mountain because of the great views which you don't get a lot of here on the east coast.

Hello,
Yes indeed (5.83's) but when I am in that truck I am not in a hurry! One of the most common questions I get asked is, how fast will the truck go? What I should say is that it goes as fast as I want it to, and leave it at that instead of trying to explain what it could, would, or should do.

No need to hurry, enjoy the ride to the top. Beautiful view and equally impressive truck. Thank you!
