    The man Driving the Chevy in the towing commercials name is Floyd Veech. He drove a logging truck in Montana and was in the Guinness world book of records in the 70s. He carried this load with a Mack Diesel both up and down the mountain logging trail. You could Circle the front of the rig and touch the bumper of the last set of logs. On the first attempt they ripped the back axel out of the Chevy so they added the overload kit. So Chevy made a deal and put him in the commercial. I still have original 8 by 10 photos. I'm his nephew. He's dead and I'm old now but he was a good man. Glad you like the commercial. I still get a kick out of it.

It had a rust hole through the floor right under the drivers heel so all the slush would get up in your boots. Even though the body was shit the engine was still a work horse and never let me down.

    Today the commercial would tell you about its wifi, it's I pod/pad docking capabilities, it's road side satellite tracking of your every location, it's surround sound speaker system , video entertainment for passengers and kids, extra cup holder and lap top recharging, climate control and data management system which makes one wonder if there talking about a truck or server closet for a corporate day care center. If you want to know about fuel range and handling capability under maximum load on a dirt fire road during a cloudburst forget it. Yet these are the real world conditions encountered once beyond soccer mom suburban limits. They use to boast of massive girder beam front suspension. What does it have today? A arm? Torsion bar? Can you get it with rugged stamped steel wheels or those idiotic gangsta aluminum rims with racing tires that buckle under the first pothole.

      What does price have to do with capability?
      Modern trucks are:
      Safer
      Faster
      Stronger framed
      Have better weather proofing
      Have electronics that help you
      More economical
      More comfortable
      Are rated to tow or carry more
      Dont leak like every pickup from the mid nineties and earlier.
      Oh, and modern trucks are more powerful as standard now too. There are even some smaller trucks that kick dirt all over older trucks in every aspect.
      So yes. Modern trucks ARE three times more capable. Price is another matter entirely.

The buyer was very private but allowed me to sit in it after he was done restoring it. Thing was immaculate. He had bought it for his wife.

  • @JW...-oj5iw

    It wasn't nearly the load in the ad, but I used my 75 K20 with the 350 & granny 4spd to clear an intersection of a C65 flatbed, loaded with sand and cement in bags, pulling a trailer carrying a tractor with a scoop in front and a backhoe. No telling how heavy it all was, but it wasn't light. When I hooked up and started to pull, the pickup started bouncing. The cop figured it wouldn't work, but I popped the transfer case into low range and put the transmission in granny low and away we went. I pulled the kit and kaboodle through a big intersection and into the parking lot of the bank on the corner. That pickup was the best truck I've ever had, bar none. After I wore out the engine, I rebuilt it and turned it into a working hot rod. Sure wish I still had it. BTW, the truck in the ad is either a 73 or 74. Automatic with the abominable full time 4WD. It appears that the driver pulled the shifter to low and likely the transfer case would be in low lock position.

We have a much smaller commercial vehicle like these that we call utes- some were rated as much as 1 tonne back in those days, from something around 65% - 75% of the size of this truck. Good ol' Holden 1 "tunna"... 😊 Would love to own one these days. It'd be a turbo BBC before it even knew what was happening it to. The full chassis is begging for some upgrades and it'd be perfect to handle big amounts of hp. You can weld the cage straight to the chassis. Makes it every easy to tub the rear end!

    This "outsourcing to Mexico" started with CEO Roger Bonham Smith (1981-1990). How do we reward the men and women of GM who build high quality cars and trucks? Outsource. Bring it home to Detroit! Start making your own parts again, rebuild the city that you bankrupted. I will never deride Detroit. It isn't the city's fault that CEOs are greedy toilet scum.

      It is a 454/400, you can see the little red 454 badge on the lower right hand corner of the grille. The narrator didn't say this truck HAD a 350, he said they came standard with a 350. He then says "this truck is equipped with options that you can order through any Chevrolet dealer" (as in the 454/400 combo).

      Diesel engines wish they had the power of a big block, they can't pull a greasy string out of a cats ass without a turbocharger and putting the same amount of boost through a 454 will net bigger gains than any diesel could hope for.

    • @Wildstar40
      @Wildstar40 7 років тому +2

      +ImpactJunky ... Diesel engines make more power with less revolutions and with less fuel than a gasoline engine. Why diss the turbo ? If you take two 454's, one with a turbo and one without a turbo, the turbo engine will make more power and get better mileage. A turbo on any engine is a plus.

    • @Impactjunky
      @Impactjunky 7 років тому +4

      @LincolnTek Sorry dude but my 73 Mopar 400 big block gets way better gas mileage than any diesel truck. And I never said anything negative about a turbo, but a roots two four barrel supercharger is undeniably better for torque and towing. Not to mention the fact that a blown big block looks and sounds 10x cooler without making all that stupid smoke. Just watch a few trucks pulling sleds at an event, the coal rollers can't hold a candle to a supercharged gas V8.

    Gotta love old trucks (accept the Ford's of course, they were never good)
    That's an old Chevy gaser, that gallons per mile, but you can clearly see it is being pushed, the rear wheels on the pickup aren't even moveing, though my first gen dodge diesl has hauled a semi trailer of hay (pulled with a semi 5th wheel dolly)
    And we've hauled 3500 gallons of water with the durimax, i just took a while, but one day I hooked a powerstroke up to the same trailer, this was considered a suped up powerstroke, and it could not move...
