That’s a great truck, they are hard to find not all rusted out. That would make a great horse hauler. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like the common thread the ties these all together is a tow cable pulling you out of what ever you got stuck in. 17 hours ago, 19richie66 said: Definitely a Nash Metropolitan.

Pullstart 62,902 #330 Posted August 8, 2019 So, when I first saw this truck last night, I knew that it needed to be shared. Then I looked underneath. When it’s built to tow, I wish someone would be more considerate of the frame than what they did here! I wouldn’t trust the welds personally, plus the top and bottom of the frame were left not welded. That pretty much killed the integrity of the frame! Also, there was this slick Silverado at the track. It’s not all too often you find one from the 99-02 body style that’s still clean and shined up here! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeacemakerJack 10,738 #331 Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) There are vintage trucks all over down here. We are in the little town of Landrum, SC just walking from shop to shop when I saw this beauty... And this one...

PeacemakerJack 10,738 #335 Posted August 13, 2019 Drove beside this “double Dodge delight” off and on for about 45 minutes today! Truck reminded me of a white version of Jim’s and that Dart—well... IT speaks for itself! 5 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,508 #338 Posted August 19, 2019 My son’s white truck graveyard. Bottom pic is what the regular cab looked like when he got it. Hopefully it’s about to make a comeback. He’s doing an LS swap in it. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,508 #340 Posted August 20, 2019 @ebinmaine that belongs to one of his friends. He had one just like it, but shortbed, that got hit in the front and totaled. He is cutting the frame and using the bed off that to make this one a shortbed to replace the one he lost. He has a crewcab, shortbed dually that my son welded the frame on that they body dropped. Haven’t seen it in a while though. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,534 #341 Posted August 20, 2019 @19richie66 Cool stuff. I've always had kind of a "thing" for crew cabs for some reason... Loooong before they became a standard as they are today. I once had a mid 80's GM with an 8' bed. I'd like another one someday... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,508 #343 Posted August 20, 2019 My great uncle bought it new in Opp, Alabama 1990. He had it up until my son turned 16 and my dad bought it for him. He wanted my Jeep cherokee at the time so I took the truck. The bottom picture is how it was when I had it before he got it. 😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're holding the steering wheel, that will be heated as well. So I'm going to say yes. They both work perfectly fine. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
