BillT is on a distinguished road
Default '64 GMC 5000 Road Tractor

On video. Has a Heavy Front Axle with the Wide Fenders and 10-Lug Wheels.

Air Brakes, of course. Must be a 401 as if it had a 478, it would have been a 6500.

Cool Truck:

When I watched the youtube video, a link to another cool GMC video showed up at the end. Looks like a '66 KV4000 model.

Might be a KV4000, but it has a Coleman front drive axle. I think the factory KV4000's had Rockwell front axles. Anyone know for sure?

According to one of the posts at this link http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=546837 both front and rear axles were Rockwell.
