1957 F800 Big Job

Just bought a 57 F800 ex'ladder truck. It has less than 7000 miles, and is now a car hauler. I am looking forward to hauling my cars to shows this the bohemoth!

thanks, I'm happy to have landed it, it will carry my 67 Beaumont to shows. I Know this isnt the forum for GM products, but I wouldnt trust this job to just any truck. I drove an F150 for 15 years.

Turn2stone, if you load your pictures on photobucket, they will assign an img code to each picture. copy and past the code into one of your posts and the picture will automatically apear in the post, even if you have less than 25 posts.
