Great video of the Steam shovel.
Hope you can make the truck show in Port, it's early in September I think the 4th.

**** Construction????? Uh ya OK. Haha!

Seriously though those are really cool pictures. I'm guessing that those trucks are from the early fifties, before GM bought them out? Really cool, thanks very much!

They were a huge contracting company in Eastern Pennsylvania.
Hope you don't mind me flooding your post but I thought this article and pictures I found on another site I visit would fit your build. I'll pull them off your thread if you want me to.

I guess I may have a strange sense of humour but my mind went somewhere else when I read "**** Construction"... Sorry

Feel free to flood away! I haven't read the whole story but I will. Since we have a 1961 Euc, I find it interesting to learn more about their history as well as others surrounding them.

Thanks for the post.

What model do you think the truck in the last pic would be?
