  1. Jakebrake and Freightrain, those are both sharp-looking rigs. What if you converted the drive axle suspension to air ride light Freightrain did? Would that make it ride smooth enough?
  2. If you enlarge the photo from the Hank's website you can definitely make out the single-cylinder gas engine in that box. I wonder if you had to pull-start that motor when you wanted AC?!
  3. Here's a Brockway with an F model cab on eBay...looks pretty solid. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1969-Brockway-Cabover-Single-Axle-Truck-/220736436978?pt=Commercial_Trucks&hash=item3364eabaf2#v4-31
  4. I have an old Smith truck...it's a 59 H model. Pretty well rusted but I'll save the good parts off of it for my other projects.
  5. Amen on piping exhaust in to cut/weld a tank...I've done that on a gas tank and it worked (I'm still alive!).
  6. Great paint job...I like the color! What kind of paint and paint gun did you use?
  7. Howdy! I have a spin-on base with no bleeder line on it. Can I replace the canister-type filter on my '59 673 with this base? Or do I have to have to have the bleeder line? Thanks very much.
  8. I notice you call that extra line a "bleeder line"...is it necessary? I have a standard spin-on base; can I replace the canister type filter with this base?
  9. Howdy! Is there anything wrong with putting a spin-on fuel filter base on my 673? I notice there's a bypass line from the canister filter housing to the return line. Is this necessary if I install a spin-on? Thanks very much for your help!
  10. I've heard about the bleeding elsewhere...it makes sense. I was a mechanic years ago and we even bled the luberfiners on the newer trucks.
  11. It has the 500 luberfiner. Thanks for the help!
  12. Hello! Can someone tell me how much oil a '59 673 holds? Is it okay to run Rotella 15w-40 in this motor? It's only a play truck, I won't be pulling any loads with it. Thanks in advance!
  13. Yes, it's a nice truck. It does have the entire powertrain, although Ed says it doesn't run right.
  14. I got the truck hauled...a huge Thank You! to Jerry Howard at Howard Trucking in Fairborn Ohio. Those guys are top quality.
  15. Yes, I'm buying the truck from Ed P. I'm looking forward to seeing it...all of our H models in Ohio are too rusty.
  16. I'm trying to purchase a single-axle H67LT in Longmont CO, and I live in Johnstown OH...about 1,300 miles. The truck isn't driveable, but I believe it will roll. Can someone haul this or suggest a hauler for me? Please email me at chc@onemarconiplace.com. Thank you!
