'57 Chevrolet 3100


from Greg Phillips: "A peach of a truck. I tried to capture some of the design features that made this a great truck. How many can you find? All are long gone now resulting in the modern truck, in most cases, being no more than a street legal shopping cart. Last dispatch for a while from Florida's Forgotton Coast. This gem was in Eastpoint, FL, on Apalachicola Bay; your typical Florida fishing village with a Covid-19 problem."
AL: if you try 3100 in our search widget you'll see a bunch more Task Force-era trucks, including this 1958.  Searching for Apache turns up several more, like this one--where else--Saskatchewan.
