EnergizerBear said: Very cool, thanks for sharing. Vulcanuk said: Nice truck Liensailor said; Found this old one of a silver truck. When I started they were all red. But there's an old TowTimes magazine that did a story on Haddick's and on the cover of the magazine is a whole fleet of silver trucks. Danny Cassello said: Love that cab over!!!!! very nice thank you for sharing. Derek Gould said: The cabover looks to be identical to the one that Haddicks brought all the way to the Toronto Canada tow show in the mid 1970's. That was one very long ride to support the show (California to Ontario Canada). I have a number of photos of it in white. What is Haddicks doing today? Do they have a web site and where is that truck now? Derek RedPete said: I always liked their midsize GMC, I think it was a century with custom body... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
