I’d be happy to oblige, except we don’t have any. Our oldest one dates from 1997 at the moment, and is a generic Ford fleet rig (although it does have a utility bed). I wonder if Baker still has The General (1943 Army surplus Dodge Power Wagon)? Now *that* was a maintenance rig….
I have never seen an 80’s Doppelmayer lift with galvanized towers, only the fairly new ones. There might be some with galvanized tower heads on painted tubes.

Wish they wouldn’t paint the sheaves and sheavetrains. Wish they would leave the towers galvanized steel color too, or forest green.
