    Description

    This photo is an excellent high quality 8” x 10” new photo COLOR reproduction of a 1959-1963 GMC DFR-9000 COE Diesel Tandem-Axle Tractor pulling a 4-Axle Semi-Trailer with a 3-Axle Full-Trailer … a 10-Axle ‘Michigan-Train Steel Hauler’. The operator of this GMC ‘Michigan Train’ was U.S. Truck Co. of Detroit
    ”SAMPLE” will not appear on the actual photo, it is only on the scanned image.
    DESCRIPTION:  The D Series GMC line was produced from 1959 to 1964, and perhaps until 1968 when it was replaced with the ASTRO 95.  The D Series cab was constructed of aluminum, and had a rather squared-off design, perhaps giving it the ‘Crackerbox’ slang name.  Many of these Crackerboxes were powered with the old standby Detroit Diesel 6-71 in various versions, with the V-6-71 and V-8-71 also being offered for heavier GVR ratings. You’ll notice that the lead axle on the semi-trailer has an air-lift to ease tire wear on turning.
    CONDITION: This outstanding color glossy photo is a newly reproduced photo from a vintage photo in my personal lifetime collection.  This photo has been printed on excellent quality HP PREMIUM PLUS GLOSSY PHOTO PAPER using HP 02 Vivera Inks, producing a professional quality photo that resists fading over 100 years ... the best money can buy.  This 8x10 photo has a white border around the photo.
    For your information, the description and documentation of this photo will be loosely taped to the back side of this photo. I try to ad some “added value” to my photos by researching each one, adding some history and information that you may not know. If I get something incorrect, please let me know … thanks!
