Built a model of this style truck when I was a kid. The missing emblem on top of the hood was a short, square bison emblem. Really awesome looking old truck!
A Bison head, I have 2 of them
WOW! You don’t see a lot of Chevy Bison trucks! That one’s in good condition! 😎👍🏾👌🏾
I have a 1977 Chevrolet Bison quad axle grain truck, Detroit 8V71 13 speed, black and chrome!
What a great looking old truck. Thanks for sharing that.
GM needs to make these again. But the GMC Version of this. Also the Astro, Brigadiers, and Topkicks!
Bison/Generals are some of the best looking trucks! 🛻. All GM trucks of that era looked great! I love a CAT BTW!
Neighbor still has a Chevrolet Bison semi tractor that he uses to pull a Bellydump trailer hauling sand and gravel and Asphalt on Highway projects.
I remember a 1693..... 1674 is something new to me.... as is the Bison.... that I have never seen before and I started driving legally in 63. I remember a general and this cab seems quite similar. Well preserved... not many dump trucks of this age are anywhere near this condition. thanks for sharing
GMC General and the Chevrolet Bison are the same truck. All Bisons are 5 star Generals but not all Generals are 5 stars
Don’t see too many Bison trucks anymore. Few Brigadiers still around though. Cool!
Chevy's version of the GMC Brigadier was the Bruin, and they're even more rare than the Bison.
Especially with a CAT. I assumed it would be a Detroit.
@@claytonbrown7100 I had the same thought.
This is my husband Dan absolutely favorite truck he is going to druel when he sees this beautiful classic
Yay
Trying to save a 1986 General crane truck another rare beauty. Very few of these left in good shape anywhere!
Those gmc generals weren’t in good shape when they were new. I drove them, junk. There’s a good reason why GM got out of the class 8 truck business, and then entirely out of the commercial truck business so many years ago.
Wowww..sure is awesome to see the old school trucks are still out there and on the road working...sooo cool looking 😎👍🏻
This is so cool. Interior
Looks like a pick up on steroids.
Thanks for sharing
That is one cool old thanks for showing it👍🇺🇸
Very nice rig. Thanks for sharing it👍
Back in 1980 family friends bought a new five star GMC logging truck I remember driving it around the farm, I was 10 the GMC’s had a good chassis and steering much better than some KW’s I drove, but then this was new and not wore out.
Big BISON Was The Hood Emblem ! Loved Runnin' 1 a these back in the day Detroit Power ! ATB T God Bless
What a sweet looking truck!!
That's one nice truck looks good
My dad had to of those on our farm when I was just a kid but our had 8v71t Detroit in them I sure wish we had them today.
That is an amazing truck, my good friend and I almost bought a dump like this ,. I am a farmer ,the friend work at a factory , our idea was he was going to work for hire with the truck on his days off. Had it all planned out but didn't go through with the idea,. The truck we were going to buy was a 1980 Chevy Bison, a twin to this video truck.
Great video
My uncle used to keep his units looking like it came right of the dealer floor every Monday morning.
It really doesn’t take much to keep them looking like this.
Really sweet old find, love to hear the unique whine of a Cat...thanks for posting....
Its been awhile since y'all have done a video I've been watching out to see if y'all have been putting videos out I'm glad to see y'all still doing videos and I'll keep on watching them
I remember seeing these brigadier and bison ads in the "Overdrive" magazine when I was a kid back in the seventies. A great looking truck in good condition. Cheers from Australia.
Old truck is looking good 👍
Awesome truck, Thanks for getting it on a video.
That’s a beautiful truck
she s super rare, and clean nice unit
That big Jimmy looks good
Great video thanks for sharing nice truck
The engine under the hood is a 3406 going by the badge on the front fenders.
Very nice ,drove a general very similar
That is a nice old piece. Well cared for.
This is how a truck should be treated!
Nice truck.🛻
Nice rig!
Those 1674s were one of the best sounding CATs ever built haha wish I could have this thing for myself
I love those short wheelbase tandem axle dump trucks, that bison is beautiful.
Excellent, thank you.
Good looking truck!!!!!!!!!!
That a real truck
Nice truck
Great Truck!, I drove a GMC General, but a Bison is Very Rare..in 73 I drove my Dad's Brand New Chevy Titian 90,... Thought I was Big Time,....Hyd Power Steering! 👍
Beautiful truck that is super nice
Very cool!
They produced more GMC Generals then Chevrolet Bisons that is because GMC dealers could service the heavyduty customers Chevy dealers were not equipped or had the personnel to service the heavy class 7 threw 8 commercial customers the Chevy dealers that sold Bisons & Bruins & Kodiaks were always in rural areas mostly Farmers & small construction companies bought them they were built on the same assembly line as the General in Detroit Michigan at the 13th avenue truck plant I believe that I read somewhere I could be wrong there is not enough information on these trucks
These and all of the GMC and Chevrolet heavy duty truck line up were built at GMC Truck and Coach Plant in Pontiac, Michigan. They also built busses there at a separate facility. I had an uncle who worked there for many years and eventually retired from there. As a kid I visited that plant many times for their annual employee family day event (GMC Open House). They had all of their latest products on display and visitors got to climb in and out of the trucks. They also had a short plant tour, food and festivities. I remember seeing seemingly endless parking lots full of brand new GMC products. I recall Fleet Carrier Corporation Transporting the finished trucks piggy back style on low boy type trailers pulled by GMC Astros with sleeper cabs. GMC ran A top notch operation and the employees were proud of what they built.
There was a BISON on the hood!
The hood had a BISON emblem mounted on it.
Wow! Thanks for the great video! Never seen one of these. Awesome 😎
They were good trucks, alot of engine for a tandem. Fuller went back to the two separate selector switches for the 13 speed. The one button setup had it's problems
This Bison it looks like Mack!
Yeah they bear a resemblance to the Wonder Mutts for sure.
That's the first truck I drove 1980 Chevy bison tri-axle 290 big cam Cummings
There was also a 1676 V-8 with double overhead cams.
Love it
Very nice
Nice!
That's a beautiful thing.
I believe 1980 was the last year GM badged their class 8 trucks chevys, and was only gmc after that! Plus cats were a rare find in gm heavy trucks as well!
That's correct, Chevrolet withdrew from this market on November 1, 1980.
nice catch! extremely rare wow. I'd like to know the production numbers on this glider kit! The Bisons have always been my favorite over the GMCs.
The emblem on the top of grill was a head of a Bison in a chrome square
NICE!
Love cat power💪
I used to haul Chicken Manure with a Bragadeer like this one .. 335 HP Cummins 8 speed LL
Absolute mint.
What a Gem!!!!
To je Kraaasny Sklapač 👍👍👍💪💪💪❤️
hood ornament should've been a bison...
👍👍
That’s a badass truck I would love to have it and haul coal with it
I would say lots of parts would interchange with my FAthers 1967 Chevy C-70 .. Only My Fathers was way lighter with a GMC 410 CI V-6 and 5&4 Transmissions and 34,000 rears ..
There was a bow tie on the hood.
Now you need a brigadier general to sit next to it
You fellas going to Macungie? I'd like to see that in person, I got a 72 950 GMC w/ a 6V53 DD and a 10 speed.
Not sure what that is but this isn't our truck just fixed it for a guy.
@@weekendrestoration1498 The truck show in Macungie PA. It's huge, you'd love it if you're into trucks.
My dads old boss has about six GMC Generals kicking around, but never once in my life have I ever seen a Bison in person.
Only thing I would change is put in a heavy duty floormat and get rid of the carpet
That truck would happen to be owned by a guy in Pittsburgh, Pa
Sadly Chevrolet brought back the Bison... but it's a pickup truck.
Very rare to see a chevy Bison with Cat power 1674
i want the wheels
I think the hood ornament would have looked like the door emblems
Usually see 5 star generals and not many of them anymore either
Chevrolet Bison is ultra rare than the GMC General and it’s got a Caterpillar Diesel engine probably a 3206 3201 or 3208
3208 CAT is a small low HP engine that was used in medium duty trucks. The Chevrolet Bison was a class 8 semi tractor that would have used big power under the hood.
Never heard of that model. USA truck?
It was a twin to the GMC General
Chevrolet
I drove a 88 GMC Brigadeir was a great truck. Don't make em like that anymore
Where in Pennsylvania is it I want to buy it I’m from Allentown
What so rare about it
Not many around with the engine setup and the condition
Are the cabs steel or aluminum on these? That top part of the grill looks like it might be from a GMC since it has lots of extra holes on the front for the letters.
I believe that would have been a bowtie hood ornament that's missing from the top of the hood.
