It’s Monday morning. Time to get going .
I’ ll let somebody else ID the truck, but I’m pretty sure the airliner is either a Boeing 707 or 720, a Golden Falcon of Eastern Airlines photographed in 1963.

“For employee use only.” Yes, I’m sure all the pilots, FAs, and baggage handlers went home and played this while eating dinner.

IAM probably used it to keep strikers motivated on the picket lines...

Truck is a early 60s Dodge D series, I’m not sure what weight range it was meant for, but they’re pretty cool trucks.
My dad had a ‘67 Dodge D100 as a farm truck when I was a kid, a couple years ago he got it running and licensed and took it on a Gambler 500 run. T he seat was completely disintegrated and the brakes were more of an idea than a functional system (4 wheel non-power drums, possibly not all working), but it was an absolute blast and ran like a champ the whole time. He even drove it 3 hours to get to the gambler, then drove it 3 hours home.
