  Quite an overload of eye candy there.
  Throwback Thursday always brings out interesting rigs.

  Great pics, Larry! Thank you for sharing. Those ALF 900 series chassis were always sharp. There were a few of those goofy shaped squad bodies up that way. Mount Prospect, Wood Dale and I think a few others had some off brand bodies on Ford and GMC chassis. Thanks again!
