Did the dump trailer on the ford toward the end pull the 5th wheel off the frame?

RTFO! I was driving a few of the trucks in that vid! Put a few miles on the ol brown S liner with the orange stripes....... the box was nice and low.... and so was the plant..... alot of trucks couldn't fit under.... see the shot of the burgundy International getting a loader bucket full of asphalt...... that's 'cause it wouldn't fit under the plant. They'd drop a few batches in the ol Michigan's bucket first, then drop it in the truck. It took 25minutes on a hot day to get a 15ton load out of that plant!

Here is another batch ;D Snow removal The 70's And here is a model I built! It was a reefer van, I kitbashed in the tandem rear axles, and scratchbuilt the box from plastic card and a radio antenna. It's that truck above, before it got painted. Enjoy!

Here's a bunch more slideshows and vids my Dad uploaded.
Here's a long vid of Cape Breton Truckers Association hauling sand in for the Mountie's musical Ride to benefit sick children. I started watching this....then I was like..."Wait a second! I filmed this!" lol Yup, 1998 on a massive handheld camcorder.
Mick is driving the red 70's Chevy, grey box/bumper.
part 2
40 years of randoms
Mick's trucks over the years.....a lot of the pics are at the house we grew up in, in Sydney. They still live there.
Some right proper sticker placement in this one!
Ah, they are just old trucks, but it brings a tear to the eye to watch these vids.
Scot's and unusual
Old dumps to the tunes of HankIII
Stoked my Dad uses utube! I haven't seen some of this stuff in over 20 years!
