Hi guys, I grew up on a farm and we used to work our squares when they were shiny and new in the 70's. I never had a need to buy my own until 1990 when I needed a plow truck. Now I have 5 more. When I need a work truck I only think of a square body. I just can't picture the newer trucks doing any real work other than hauling a trailer down the highway. I have seen some of the newer stuff beaten mercilessly in mud bog racing and I guess they can take some abuse. I'll just keep fixing my squares and using them. They are so much easier to fix and work on.

Thanks for the welcome. My babies are rough work trucks. All but one is buried in snow right now. I have had two hard drives die in the last couple years so my pics are scattered everywhere. I'll see what I can dig up.

Found this video from last summer. The 76 K20
