Chuck Most Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 I rescued a tattered old photo album from my childhood home not to long ago, and scanned a few of the photos. My great uncle owned a couple of businesses in the late '70's and early '80's- a general store and a stove/heating store, and operated a couple of trucks for each. Most of these photos are from 1979-1980.
Dr. Cranky Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Wow, those are a whole bunch of great vintage (polaroid vintage!) photographs. Very cool, Chuck.
Badluck 13 Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 Thanks Chuck for sharing,truly did enjoy seeing these.
mistermodel Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) Ford trucks and ford cars,sounds like my great uncle.Im sure if he was a trucker he would of had ford rigs. He had ford trucks,tractors,plows,lawnmowers,snow-blowers.I can remember only one non ford on the farm,a 70ish gmc.That had a ford carb on it to "make it run right". I have alot of blue blood also,but can live with a few models of other brands.Not ol'uncle Joe Edited April 23, 2012 by mistermodel
Chuck Most Posted April 23, 2012 Author Posted April 23, 2012 Yeah- the only non-Ford truck Frank had was the yellow GMC in the first post. The GMC letters off the front of the cab are still up on a pegboard panel somewhere.

Did bring back alot of great memories in these crummy times thx man.
