I really like those old trucks, I think they have a cool shape. Maybe not yellow or with logs & teeth though.

I love old cars. Especially muscle cars.

Yeah, they were kinda unusual, (not really my style) that's why I took pix.
(I would not mind owning the Tan/Maroon 37 Olds though)

What is that in the 1st pic? Looks like a blower but there's no scoop. Tunnel ram?

That's 2 4 brl. carbs on top of 2 tunnel rams on top of a blower. The tires and suspension are probably under specs for the truck.

Umm..yeanope. No tunnel ram on that donk. Just two four barrel Holley squarebores on some riser plates on top of a B&M blower (supercharger). The 'scoop' is not mandatory for a supercharger, it's just an optional extra that can tie in two air cleaners etc.. That one just has individual paper cartridge type elements on top of the Holleys

That's why I asked. Those are like 2-3 inch risers.
