I feel like I won the lottery, found the Old Pacific that was sold to Capostink Timber in Clearwater B.C. is still alive and in great shape for its age. There is a new picture 1959 or 1960, then one from summer of 1961, and then the ones from May 11/2011. Truck was used by the local dirt race track until 4 years ago and is just parked for now. New at Pacific factory.

Summer 1961


May 2011





Man I used to see that truck all the time at the races. Haven't seen it in about 5 years though as its not parked in the usual spot. Next time I'm out that way I'm gonna go and search for it.

I tried for a couple of years to get it and didn't get very far.It has gone to a good home and if it looks half as good as his HD Hayes it will be a very nice truck

That Pacific is well looked after and will go a major rebuilt and should end up as new in a year or so
