The Low Cab Forward (LCF) is a '56 Chevrolet 9200 Series with the 322 Buick V8, Powermatic (Allison) 6 Speed Automatic, Power Steering and Air Over Hydraulic Brakes. This will be my next "frame-off" restoration project and will be a Road Tractor when done. I have a vintage 30' Fruehauf Grain trailer I want to pull.
Here is a picture of the Tow Truck which is a '56 Chevrolet 8400 with a Holmes 525 Twin Boom 24,000# Wrecker Body, 350 V8, 4 speed trans and a 2 speed rear. All of these trucks were nick named by the original owners. The original owner gave this truck the nickname "Maude."
The Fire Truck is a '57 Chevrolet 10500 Series with a John Bean 500 GPM Main Pump and a 850 psi Fog Pump, it is powered by a 322 Buick V8 with a 5 Speed Trans and a 2 Speed Rear. It has 13,800 original miles. The original owner gave this truck the nickname "Hurdy-Gurty."
