The cabinets are in rough shape, but the electronics are good. $500." Link Run 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Ok, so I admit I didn't look at the ad.... when I saw the picture above, I thought the side grills, were made out of sheet metal. I couldn't fathom someone doing something so idiotic....but that's what it looked like (and we all know there are idiots in the world, I'm living proof!!)

iaRIVR Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I jumped on a pair of 'custom' speakers on CL, thinking if someone was going to all the trouble of building speakers they would know what they were doing. At the very least they would use quality drivers, no one would go to all that effort and put in junk drivers. I thought to myself. I thought wrong. They went to the dump on my next run and not making that mistake again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truck looks to be high, like it's a larger truck, like a 1 ton, and are those roof lights? Also, the grill and hood emblem matches the 59 3800 Series pretty close. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice looking old truck. Pastel pink from here. Collectable! Don't recall seeing running lights mounted that far back, but maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure of the year of the truck. It has the 4 headlights and the rear glass is the width of the cab and it rolls / bends forward towards the doors on the ends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Yes I learned some 12 y/o in the cab of a 60 International log truck. You carry your age well, lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
