On the way to shoot this PM, ran into this little oldie....

Now that's a real truck!

Those old timers are neat. I like old ones and I've driven a few..for a while. However, after sitting a few hours on a straight backed bench with my legs crammed up under me and having to yell over the engine noise with the windows rolled down on a 95F day, a soft seated, air conditioned, power steering equipped pickup starts to look pretty good. I guess I'm getting old enough to appreciate some of the new stuff.

I'd park that in my shop fo sho.

Awesome

That is a sweet truck... I've seen a few 12 valve cummins conversions on power wagons that got the wheels in my head turning.

These guys seem to be the power wagon folks, and I suspect that truck is on this page...

theres a guy near here that has about a dozen of the old power wagons restored to pristine condition and he shows them at the fall festivals, etc. he is as they say, a man of means.

Good looking truck. I saw one a couple years ago in Nevada on my way back from hunting. Customized crewcab. It had just been picked up from a shop in California and was on a trailer. I'm guessing it was well north of 150k but it was about the coolest thing on wheels.
