I respect the stacking, and the bravado. No one does cool stuff like this anymore. Joe just told me why, it's because this was at the 1964 Worlds Fair! No one does those anymore either!

4 years ago I ran across the GMC tower of power for the 1st time, and then found some of the other stacked manufactures photos, and posted them. You might have seen it, GMC was put to shame by TUI, a New Zealand company that doesn't take challenges lightly https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/03/yesterday-i-psoted-stack-of-gmc-trucks.html
Can't believe they painted the entire bottom of them white even the van.
ReplyDeleteJoe just told me that this was at the 1964 Worlds Fair, so, that makes sense that they would paint them to look nice, as a million or more people would be coming by to look at it
DeleteMy father, Lyle Gately, was the manager of shows & exhibits for GMC Truck & Bus and created this display. I was at the 1964 fair to see it.
ReplyDeleteWow! That must have been fantastic!
