I could like to have a grain truck with a hoist. Just seems to make more sense than hauling gravity boxes on the road to the elevator. Something smaller and older because I really don't have need to haul more than 300 bushels at any given time and really cannot justify a road tractor. Been looking at the Chevy C60's and even C50's that are around from the mid 1970's. I can afford the price and it is close enough and similar enough to my Chevy PU from 1976 that I could work on it. I also have a need frequently to bring in a small load of sand or gravel...3-4 yards at most. I could save on the delivery. Anything wrong with the older Chevys? Are the old IH or Fords better? Seem to be a LOT of the old IH trucks around. Appreciate opinions.
