"You all need to get some good shots of the working Bolts. Especially the Big Bolts. I'd really really REALLY love to have a calendar in 2007 of those."
That sounds like a good project for those of us who waste too much time not workin' on our Big Bolts.
Most of the other 'Bolters just drive around an' play, right?
Well, here's yer chance to show 'em what trucks were made for and what they can really do!

What were you looking for in the pics? - pretty, show quality bolts
- bolts in work clothes
- slightly rough bolts
Would you want pics of the trucks posed or working (dirty)? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 90 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 90 | Maybe some before and after pictures also. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 332 Big Bolt Shop Curmudgeon | | Big Bolt Shop Curmudgeon Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 332 | Keep the juices flowing, fellers.
Big bolts look good from any angle.
If the truck is clean, then it must be the driver that is getting dirty.
Personally, I like to see an old truck that is a little dusty, got a little mud on the fender wells, remnants of bales of hay in the bed, rock dust and dirt on the outer walls of the dump bed, shiny-bright taillights and headlights peeping through the dust on the hood, fenders, and rear frame.....well, you get the idea.
