Pictures of the Ward and Diamond T 969A

Post by 42 chevy »

All;
I have posted a few pictures of my trucks at the Aberdeen show, we were "playing" with Paul Rhea's CCKW, winching it with the Diamond T and also lifting his generator out of his Ben Hur. I suspended my sons toy jeep from the hook on the Ward. I also provided a link to additional pictures.
