1948 Chevrolet 515 Holmes

1948Chevrolet

This is a 1948 COE Chevrolet Truck with a Holmes 515 bed mounted on the back. Peter Aspesi purchased this truck in 1996 from Gannon Chevrolet in Westboro, Massachusetts. It was the first Holmes 515 in the area and Peter did a complete restoration and finished the truck in 2000. Warren Roosevelt purchased the truck from Peter in 2005 after displaying the unit at an ATHS Truck show in Syracuse, New York. Just another great addition to our museum family!

THIS Is Why America Stopped Making Cab-over Trucks


In this video, we dive into the fascinating history of American cab-over trucks and explore why they disappeared from the market in the 60s and 70s, while the rest of the world still produces them. We cover the advantages and disadvantages of cab-overs versus long-nosed trucks and the reasons behind the switch. Join us as we explore the rules and regulations that led to the decline of the cab-over and the rise of the long-nose truck. We also discuss the possibility of the cab-over making a comeback in America and what that would mean for the industry. So, grab a seat and let's explore the world of cab-over trucks together!

Auto insurance catch: Why they may deny your repair estimate


If you are in a car accident, your insurer is supposed to make sure the car is repaired, assuming you carry collision coverage. The law in most states says you can go to any repair shop you choose.

How A Big Rig Works - The Peterbilt 579 UltraLoft



The Peterbilt 579 UltraLoft is one of the most sophisticated semi trucks ever built. Semi-trucks carry BILLIONS of dollars worth of goods, being driven across BILLIONS of miles of highways. Close to 70% of goods being delivered to your door were at one point being pulled by a semi. That’s a lot of money and a lot of responsibility on the truck AND the driver. But this show isn’t called H2B (hat 2 boots), so sorry Dale, we can’t teach the kids about your Steston and your Tony Lamas. But what we can do is dive into one of the biggest, smartest, most tech heavy semi trucks ever to hit the road - the Peterbilt 579 UltraLoft. Some of our best videos ever are coming out soon, stay tuned so you won't miss a thing! ►Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1JQ3qvO

Customer Review: Jayco Greyhawk Class C RV steering repair at North Bay Truck Center


(North Bay Truck Center)

 



Recently purchase a 2018 Jayco Greyhawk Class C RV. The steering was a little loose making it difficult to keep the RV driving straight. North Bay Truck Center was recommended by a local RV repair place in Benicia because they could had they are full truck repair location with truck lifts that could handle my 32 foot RV and even bigger. Joe was the technician that worked on my RV. He was very knowledgeable, contacted my several times to go over options and was alway upfront about options and costs. The repairs he did have made the steering so much better. I would highly recommend North Bay Truck Center for anyone that needs RV repairs.
