Canadian 5/4's hanging out

[charlietango]

For those of you who want to see something a little different, here's two models of the pre-CUCV 5/4s that Canada used. These are both 1976, gasoline 350 with the Chevrolet AWD transfer cases (Hi and Hi-Loc/ Low and Low-Loc). Front one is mine rear one is a friend of mine named Rob Love.

Enjoy!

Cool vehicles.

Since those just show up as links, I've attached your pictures (albeit slightly reduced size, since the site squinches them down)

Cheers

Thanks man! I hate this mobile app! Did the links provide good quality ones at least?

Hey Ed good to hear from you. I've known Rob for many years now and I agree he's an encyclopedia. But I wasn't looking into CMP's- must be thinking of someone else?

Yes, they are really good pictures, nice and clear. Actually came across pretty good here once the site "downsized" them too.

Cheers

Sweet! I love round eye square bodies!

I just completed a restoration on my 73 K10 and have been looking for a paint scheme. These Canadian trucks sure do look good!

If you want I can take the pictures from the manual of the paint scheme!

Yes, they are very sharp looking units.

They're a rare thing even in photos. Here's the ones I saw

If it's not too much of a hassle, that be great!

No hassle at all! Just have to wait until tomorrow as they're at my shop.

I attached a few bonuses too. I managed to get all the original service records for my truck while it was in the military. Have all the wiring schematics, service bulletins, service manual and user manual. I have all the auxiliary equipment too including the unstucker kit.

Nice trucks!!! The spare tire mounted on the box on the rear truck looks like a real bear to take down and put back up!!!
