Plymouthy Adams Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 what is impressive is not that the Dodge is transporting them but the manner they were stacked..stayed in place while some poor slob lashed the chains with the binders...secondly who was the poor soul tasked with the release of these binders.....

Plymouthy Adams Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 (edited) are those shadow of brush and bramble or a disguised safety chain attached to the chassis.....🤣 a certain other company today would depict this image by backing up to the edge of the precipice. (but I still think they use photoshop on the safety cable there also) yeah, just not that trusting in the actual event or portrayal thereof Edited May 5 by Plymouthy Adams Quote

RobertKB Posted May 9 Report Posted May 9 Never before seen pictures of Dodge Skyscrapers and did not know they existed. What is the purpose of the two levels of windows? Both levels have wipers. Where would the driver sit? Also assuming it had the super big six, totally different flathead than in regular cars and trucks. Dodgeb4ya would likely know. Quote

I had to study that profile view for awhile, and my best guess is that with a car loaded just over the rear axles, the nose of the car would be under the driver position. The lower glass would be about where the floorboards would be so the driver could see traffic or other obstructions over his feet. The sky high cabs were done back in the era of semi-truck overall length restrictions that were phased out by the 1980s, making cabover semi-trucks a rarity today compared to conventional cabs. Quote
