  • Work truck

    Sal was so impressed with the fact that the T cabs we bought were still being used daily as work trucks that he got a photo idea.

    Just need the 3/4 ton Stainless Hubcaps to finish it off.

    Could be a TW Cover Picture.

            I did not know they had a 3/4 ton hub cap. How did they clear the rear hub ?

                John, They "bubbled out" sufficiently to clear the rear hub.
                Unlike the 1/2 ton caps, the 3/4 ton caps stuck to "nubs" forged/stamped into the
                wheel.

                  Great photo JDP!

                  Unlike most folks, the wide, long bed is my favorite bed on Champs.

                  Considering its low-buck development, I think Champs look more contemporary today than other trucks built the same time do.

                      Of course they do.........in Canada! Next time you hear that, ask them [u]Where</u> in Canada. I'd really like to know.

                          D*AM! I should've jumped on those. Ah well..... Nice shot, Sal!

                              It'll be interesting to see what they bring. They were practically in my backyard and I'd see them from time to time, but I passed because I couldn't find any current references on value. As much as they had going for them, it's was just too tough to gauge the market and I wasn't feelin' risky. These two will certainly set the bar for fair market value and a couple of lucky owners are gonna end up with a couple of super solid work trucks!!!
