    Sorry for a lot of confusion , When I remember clocking the GMC tractor's with the Chevrolet big block motors was during the 70's . I worked in Tarrytown on Main St. A building which I still own and from the front you could see them coming up the very steep grade of Central Ave . At the top of the hill they met Broadway which was flat , at this point they had to keep going out onto Broadway rt.9 in creeper gear weather their was traffic or not onto Broadway or the loaded trailer would get stuck on the degree change . You could see the road was very scraped up where they would bottom out . Their was always another loaded trailer coming in three min. behind him .
