At my dad and grand-dad's IH dealership, up thru the 1960's they used a 1944 K-5 with a 16-foot flatbed. The truck had loading ramps/boards that were made as Harold described...boards were almost as long as the bed, and had a "H"-frame of 1" steel bolted to the board with hooks that hooked into a lip at the rear of the bed. Of course, our truck also had a 20-ton PTO-driven Tulsa winch to load the dead ones. Loading one with the boards in the rain was a matter of taking your life in your own hands, but it sometimes had to be done. And of course, if we could access a bank or a loading dock, the job suddenly got a LOT easier.
