Boy id love to have that Diamond T!🤠👍

@davidhickenbottom6574 Месяц назад

Unsafe for public roads, that truck is a must-have on the roads today. The roads are horrible, but their going to tell us what's safe,

@johnfeight2123 Месяц назад

I can appreciate all of these trucks they show I’ve seen a few up close and can remember them when they were new like the 454 chevy thanks for the memories.

@ljprep6250 Месяц назад

Chevy might have called it the Light Utility Vehicle, but everyone and their brother called it the Love (LUV) That Diamond T 2 10 is absolutely gorgeous...except in white sidewalls. Its proportions are perfect. I loved the old '90s Dodge Power Wagons, too.

@clintonsmith9931 Месяц назад

The crew cab trucks were bought by the hundreds by oil companies in West Texas. They drove them millions of miles and junked them. A company in Midland Texas totally rebuilt their pick ups till the mid 70s. Many crews drove hundreds of miles to drill sites, worked 24 hrs on and drove home for 24hrs off. Three crews worked 24 7. Work never stoped then nor now.

@sd31263 Месяц назад

A little research and you might have discovered GMC trucks from 1947 to 1955 were part of a series called "New Design." "Advance Design" is nomenclature unique to the Chevrolets of the same period.

@rayfridley6649 Месяц назад

During the 1950s, GMC pick-ups had the optional Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. These became quite popular

@DirkDiggler6903 Месяц назад

They also had Buick Straight-8's, due to fire at general motors engine plant.

@NormanSilv Месяц назад

Our Fire Department Shops had one of these gems. Ran parts, delivered supplies and generally an all around dependable and tough truck. It sold to a collector when surveyed due to the 25 year age.

@Stephen-ou4sy Месяц назад

What about the Hudson pickup ?

@WAL_DC-6B Месяц назад

Perhaps it was due to Hudson producing a little over six thousand pickup trucks in 1946-'47 alone.

@user-dw8ng4uc8p Месяц назад

They forgot the Pontiac of the 50s as well as the mercs. Would like to see those !

@donjensen785 Месяц назад

Rarity and desirability are not always the same thing.

@neilkratzer3182 Месяц назад

Another rare one was the GMC cyclone.

@xlerb2286 Месяц назад

Dad had a '46 Dodge pickup he used as a chore truck on the farm. They weren't rare, though the ones made in '46 weren't that common compared to the '47 and later models. I wish I had that pickup but it sold at a farm auction over a decade ago. If I remember it went for a pretty good price.

@Pete-from-Tn Месяц назад

Owned 2 of those trucks. But you should have added the 1941 Plymouth pickup. Only seen 3 of those in my lifetime.

@user-jl3dd6rf7d Месяц назад

Uncle Sam really screwed up turning his back on AMC....Some very talented people .And some extremely superior designs in the engineering..Some bullet proof stuff

@davidrichard3752 Месяц назад

I'd love to have a Diamond T or a Diamond Reo, classy to say the least (esp. with that low roofline) but with a grunt! I worked for a gentleman who had a construction company and during winter or snow season, he had four 70's J10 with the inline six and a Tremex 4-speed, these were work trucks through and through and used mainly to push snow and that they did! Put some weight in the bed and it was unstoppable. Later he made his own rear bumpers with a large pipe and filled it with cement, you weren't bending that but you did damage whatever you backed into...

@perkins9792 Месяц назад

love the kid steering during the burnout ............ @ 15:39

@timmccreery6597 Месяц назад

Helen Hunt's character drove a Jeep J-10 in Twister.

@user-is3bp6ii4n Месяц назад

Back in 1977 my neighbor had that chevy LUV/LOVE stepside but he had put a 283ci. V-8 in it! That thing was Awesome! I hadnt even noticed those until then and they where everywhere back then, but not like his lol!😂

@incognito8448 Месяц назад

stuck a 327 with a powerglide two speed in a Chevy Luv

@DiamondTTrucks Месяц назад

I see a few of my trucks in this video. Enjoyed watching, thanks for making it.

@caseyj.1332 Месяц назад

I had 3 LUVs years ago, a great little truck. Rugged and easy to repair with excellent gas mileage. The front suspension is a torsion bar type nearly identical to my ' 62 Chevy half ton suspension.

@theodoreolson8529 Месяц назад

My first car was a '70 Datsun 521 Pickup. My buddy had a LUV and we used to cruise around like we were a club or something.

@jackwaites3891 Месяц назад

Yes, only 17,000 454ss trucks were built, but only 2,200 came with a 5-speed manual transmission. I have one of these 5 speeds with a dealer option step side bed. 1991 454ss, and it runs and rides very nice.

@chrishultgren777 Месяц назад

people were as idiotic back then as they are today. Who would buy a detuned 454 SS & pair it with an automatic slushbox???? 🤔 (only some bean counter in accounting)

@harleyhawk7959 Месяц назад

the 4wd studebaker was never made for sale. it was only built for construction for the Panama canal build. Find a real original one. You have a golden treasure

@hellonwheelz3317 Месяц назад

You didn't mention anything about NAPCO 4x4 conversions, the Dodge pickup with the Viper engine, the supercharged Harley Davidson Edition of the F-150, the Dodge Little Red Express, or the Dodge Warlock, the Macho Power Wagon, the Ram 1500 Rumble Bee, or the Chevy SSR. There are many more.

@sailnekkid Месяц назад

My first "car" that ran was a 1956 Caddy hearse (near mint condition $400 fall of '66) when on board my first sub in New London-Groton, CT (USS DACE SSN607).... A 14 months later, transferred to the USS ALBACORE AGSS569 in Portsmouth, NH.... Sold Caddy and bought the former 1939 paddy wagon ('39 Chevy panel truck).... My Navy enlistment ran out in May '68....Drove my Portsmouth Police Dept paddy wagon to Ft Liquordale for a commercial diving school for several months, then back to California to my folk's place.....Had to sell, since I didn't have a job at that time and needed to eat.... That Diamond T looks a LOT like my old paddy wagon, but nicely restored to new .... memories ;o)

@kerrybrucem.8967 Месяц назад

For 40 years i called it a Chevy Luv. Come to find out its a L.U.V. . who would think it meant light utility vehicle.

@davidrichard3752 Месяц назад

Even when it was in a commercial back in the day, they called it a Chevy Luv, not L.U.V., let alone light utility vehicle. Not like other vehicles, the M.A.N. in Europe, doesn't appreciate when we Yanks call it Man, lol...

@kerrybrucem.8967 Месяц назад

@davidrichard3752 Lol. Cause that chevy was part of my childhood. I thought I knew it well. My brother had 2 before getting a c10 long bed

@worldtraveler930 Месяц назад

The present Postal Jeep is referred to as an LLV standing for Long Life Vehicle which it is more than excelled at it is built by Grumman and uses an S10 frame and 4 cylinder engine!!! 🤠👍

@martinbarnes6853 Месяц назад

On a quiet night you could hear the LUV rust...just like the International trucks. Poor steel quality.

@John-xk1ym Месяц назад

Friends brother had the Lil, Hustler. From Datsun. We would make fun of it. The little wastler

@user-jl3dd6rf7d Месяц назад

Damm ....haunting dreams is exactly right..Not even I imagined living to see what the prices would reach...And I had a built in crystal ball in my young years

@TInax-oo6mv Месяц назад

ONLY FEW KNOWS ABOUT ??? IS THAT EBONICS ?

@mescko Месяц назад

There was a Diamond T for sale at the Portland Swap Meet last weekend.

@mikeweizer3149 Месяц назад

Whatta bout 1955-58Chevrolet Cameo carriers and the same year GMC suburbans as well as 1957-59 Dodge sweptline pick ups or for that matter 1971 -1977 GMC Sprint pickups?.

@davesaylor5135 Месяц назад

Did anybody notice the small block v8 in the yellow one

@job38four10 Месяц назад

The only pickup I seen before in this video was the Studebaker and that was on YT. The Studebaker 4x4 was my favorite, Jeep was 2nd, Dodge was 3rd......

@KP-yx1fn Месяц назад

Greatly resembles my 1939 JCM Chevy PU.

@opera93 Месяц назад

Thanks, interestingly, Trucks & especially rarer builds (STUDEBAKERS, REO,GMCS) are “royalty” now..

@williamlavelle7786 Месяц назад

I used to see a Mercury pick up in the little town in Saskatchewan where I hunt waterfow. I would guess it was a late 50' or early 60's model. The old guy that owned it would drive it a little but mainly sat in his driveway. I don't think I ever saw a Mercury p/u in the states. Was this a Canada only model?

@dennishayes65 Месяц назад

Yes, made in Canada.

@randallhaney7909 Месяц назад

what ? No "Hudson Terraplane Pickup" ? In your line up? C'mon Boss? Especially the 1937 Terraplane modal. Unique to say the least; and harder to find than "Hen's Teeth"

@hugoglenn9741 Месяц назад

Rarity. Any number of light duty pickups from the 1980s made with diesels, especially the 4WD versions. 1970s Dodge pickups made with Mitsubishi diesels or even Perkins. How about Scouts (weren’t there a pickup version) made with Nissan Diesels. Recent Dodge, Ford, Chevy light duty pickups with 6 cylinder diesels, also including Gladiator.

@martybgood62 Месяц назад

...'think a 228 cu in. inline 6 engine' he says as a well-dressed triple-carb small block v8 is shown! WTF?

@willhenderson3602 25 дней назад

I had one an i miss it.

@gcfifthgear Месяц назад

Diamond T built beautiful, sturdy trucks (some even called them the Rolls-Royce of heavy trucks), but the Ford-Chevy-Dodge trucks were available at lower cost, particularly right after World War II--so Diamond T light-duty trucks were indeed unicorns...Jeep Gladiator/J10 trucks and Studebaker trucks were popular at the beginning of their production runs, but considering Studebaker used the same basic chassis from 1949 through 1964 (yes, even the Champ used the same chassis) and that Jeeps used the same basic design from 1963 to 1991, familiarity not only bred contempt, but declining sales (the 1973 and 1983 Jeeps looked just like the 1963s except for the grille)

@simaspavao3231 Месяц назад

What about Mack pickup ? Very rare

@WAL_DC-6B Месяц назад

Indeed. I've met someone who owns one.

@marklammert5670 28 дней назад

In 1987 the St Louis mack dealer had a 86 dodge decked out with mack red white and blue striped decals with mack logos on dor and hood. Top off with mack hood ornament

@fredford7642 Месяц назад

The only real pickup truck of note was the Diamond T, obviously the narrator of this video, never heard of Ford or Dodge trucks. His cameras got stuck on GM vehicles. Ford trucks are well known, although rare, due to the fact that they rust out so quickly.

@rongiddings1126 Месяц назад

computer generated narrator, makes me nuts.

@amsterob Месяц назад

Only Few People Know Them, genius.

@pirateshack9315 Месяц назад

a front engine ??? where were they usually, in the bed ?

@johnasbury4997 Месяц назад

The Chevy luv rusted so so bad they crushed over a thousand of them that sat on a dock in California. You could count their lifespan in weeks look it up when the s10 came out they still had them on the docks .. they were far worse than the 73 vega

@robertredden4429 Месяц назад

Anny older truck is a jem last 20 years or so ( depending on manufacturer) they are built so high off the ground that they are usless to use for a pickup can't get in and out of them without steps of some kind and you can't see out of them in tight spaces

@mickvonbornemann3824 Месяц назад

Where’s the Ford Mainline Coupe Utility?

@Anthony-pq8dc Месяц назад

Some of your facts are grossly wrong

@daveogarf Месяц назад

...and your English is somewhat suspect, as well.

@richardsobieck9660 Месяц назад

Where do the Mercury trucks fit in here?

@jackwaites3891 Месяц назад

It could be for sale if the price is right.

@ciroloid Месяц назад

You can look at that truck and tell that it's hard to work on.

@PlaneManHehehe 18 дней назад

You can't say most rarest you can say most rare or rarest you can't put them together

@willhenderson3602 25 дней назад

Ps i called as said chevy luv

@richardwendt4612 Месяц назад

When I see so many errors describing trucks I know about, I doubt some of the other "facts."

@matthewq4b Месяц назад

None of these truck are rare... let alone super rare. Something like the Ford F1 Rangers are super rare, something NONE of these trucks are.

@craigpennington1251 Месяц назад

1st one shown is fantastic. I would buy one if they were made. Trucks have been so ugly the last 40 years, just puts me off buying. 70s oil crisis was a totally man made deal. There was NO REAL OIL SHORTAGE. A fake out that the US & the world went for.

@neilkratzer3182 Месяц назад

Your right on that. When we were farming we were worried about gas at that time. Called distributor for fuel and his comment was how much do you want. He explicitly said he can sell farmers all the fuel we want but he can't deliver any to stations
