You need to come to Australia or NewZealand Still heaps of cabovers, Kenworth still sell them new https://www.kenworth.com.au/trucks/k200/ Paul

I feel the ratio would be good for shifting weight Maybe not high speed highway work in the U.S. Would be okay out here were we go a little slower but run a bit heavier Paul

And if the milage is accurate it is probably a really good deal Bucket loads of power, 44 ass end, 18 speed, super singles on the steer I best be careful or I'll talk myself into it 😉 Paul

Yeah the price is up there, even by Australian standards but it is a very neat truck Paul

That's looking really good, I wished I had of flipped my R model cab on it's back to clean it up properly underneath but as with most things, time was against me Paul

I nothing about this brand, but a quick few seconds on Google https://affordable-fuel-injection.com/product/intl-harvester-complete-tbi-system/ Holley and other companies make a similar thing Turns something with a carby and points that you have adjust and fiddle with into like modern car type of motor Paul

Looks good to me, that style of hitch is pretty common in Australia, most medium American size trucks that I see, and bigger have a big flat plat that hangs right done with all the lights They look strong and all, this is more of what I might expect to see in Australia Looks really neat Geoff Paul

Well I have been mulling this over Ethanol fuel is what it is, Im as tight as a fishes ass so I buy the cheapest fuel I can and never have any issues And it is E10 Aluminium fuel tanks Im pretty sure used on light planes, drag cars and so on As such I think it will be fine with petrol So Im thinking if you want reliability that just starts and runs and gives the best economy Electronic throttle body fuel injection, holly and the like make complete systems that include a new electronic dizzy Doing this should make it as reliable as a modern car and I think the cost wont be huge Apart from that, carry on, it is interesting learning Paul

That looks sharp, it has come up well Paul

I was speaking to my brother today and asked him about the tank Top tank is cast but the name badge etc screws to a sheet that bolts to the top tank Dunno if its cast iron or cast aluminium We never got that far into talking about it Paul

Well he's never gunna sit behind the wheel in anything I own Paul

There was a bloke in Australia that tested all the winching theories and proved what was what A few surprises, you'll to adjust your viewing to appreciate the Aussies humor https://www.facebook.com/share/v/wEUbicuiyo6b38MQ/?mibextid=NnVzG8 Let me know if the link doesn't work, it really is interesting to watch Paul

I would be thinking that is the case Vlad The world has changed a lot in the last 20 years and idiots are everywhere these days Terrorist attacks and the like I guess Funny how the world has changed so much, the Australian government was selling complete Centurion tanks not that long ago Guessing guns were made in operable, anyway no one cared Some people make a good living selling rides on the tanks thru off road courses, took my Dad on one for his birthday 10 years ago Paul

This how the armored ones are sold from the defense forces They cut the cabs and all the hoses cables and wires Paul

That I think would have to be the most detailed thread on here to follow on this type of thing Paul
