1949 Diamond T pickup, Cliff was able to persuade all of his family that he would give granddad's Diamond T truck a great home
I'm astonished... I have never heard of a Diamond T pickup til now... it's great to still discover new vehicles I've never heard of
Cool crank front windows, only one gauge replaced, and they all work. I've never seen Diamond T gauges before, the Diamond T semi's I've come across all had Stewart Warner gauges I think
Cliff's granddad owned a lumber mill, and had these running boards helped out, plus the wood on the bed of the truck
Nice black stripe across the doors, makes the truck look great
The spare matches the tires on the truck, and they may be originals, or they may be a 1960's replacement set... pure speculation... but notice the spare still has the inventory paint mark on the top
These hub caps, I've never seen them before... and they are so rare, that when traveling cross country a cousin of Cliffs spotted one on a wall decorating a roadside restaurant, and called the granddad who told him to buy it at all costs!
If anyone knows where Cliff can find a fule tank for this truck, please send me an email jbohjkl@yahoo.com and I'll pass the info along to Cliffbarely holding on, but still a work truck getting the job done in Argentina
the passenger side tires are barely hanging in there, the front seems to be tied down to the rim with twine, and the rear recaps are parting from the tire carcass
Kiev subway construction railcars... that's a new variation I've never come across
Makes sense that the easiest way to get concrete into the subway where you need it is with a mixer truck... but I'd never thought about it..
Ice road truckers... big deal. These drivers drive right into the running river, how they make it across without getting washed away I can't believe
Truck photos that cause me to say "What the hell?"
Imagine how catastrophic the landing is going to be, and in an era before airbags, and without hollywood suspension... how much damage is the body of that driver going to sustain
Now how did the driver of the construction dumptruck do that? 
The tractor is pretty cool, espcially the roof windows, but the trailer is unusual
Is the above a hearse conversion?
the above is about butt ugly, it's a '58 GMC (Chevrolet parent company if you didn't know)
