That is an unusual scheme, no idea why they'd do that. -
Thank you! Yeah, I was actually surprised to find this shop...a couple of people I know recommended them. It's Purrformance Diesel in Fredericktown Ohio.
-
Thanks! It's Axalta 77968 which is their match for classic Mack 400 red. I like it too!

I meant to post these photos earlier...I had the pump and injectors rebuilt at a local shop, they charged $1,100 to rebuild the pump and $500 for the injectors. Looks like they paid a lot of attention to detail and the truck seems to run well (that is, without a load on it). I painted a bunch of parts. Some of those parts installed.

I think you're right about the marketing strategies--GMC advertises more of a "professional" angle, Chevy more like a personal truck. Pontiac aimed more toward comfort, Chevy the more basic cars. But as you say, same vehicle, different image.

I read online a while back that a guy drove a 673 duplex back in the day, he said you needed all 10 gears because a toothpick would pull the thing down! -
I looked at my parts trucks, one of them had a pulley with a lot less wear. The belts sit up in the top of the grooves and vibrate less now. The part number on it is 302GC2187A; they are still available from PAI.

What is this for?

Yes, that's right.

This is one of the ugliest trucks I've ever seen; sadly someone put a lot of time into building it. It's got a Toronado motor/trans setup with front wheel drive... it may need some TLC. https://www.ebay.com/itm/tow-truck/265109095644?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&autorefresh=true

The 42000 at the end of the ad is probably the asking price.
-
The belts sit down into the sheaves on the WP pulley, the pulley is definitely worn. Anybody know a part number or where I can get a new pulley? I will definitely try to get a matched pair of belts--I've seen those in the past.

Pretty dang nice looking truck; this photo is before bed was installed. I see it has a gold engine in it, and I like the sign on the left front tire in the ebay pictures. Asking $50,000 obo. https://www.ebay.com/itm/133711225856?ul_noapp=true&autorefresh=true

It actually does smoke but I had some round duct clamped to the exhaust pipe, carrying the smoke outside.

I primed it before starting...had to fill the fuel filter and pour fuel in the inlet line before the primer would pick it up. I'll have to check out the valves. I put new belts on but the WP pulley is pretty worn...that may be the issue.
