Cleaning up my mess need to get rid of some stuff I'm never going to use.

B model square tank brackets tanks junk

673 intake, exhaust and water manifolds. couple of heads in unknown condition, push rods, valve covers.

Located 20 miles south of Boston

Make an offer

Just don't want to throw anything away until I know nobody wants it

Did anyone let the marketing genius that wrote this press release in on the fact that the "new" Chevy and GMC low cab forward trucks are NPRs with a different badge on the front just like they always were before the GM Isuzu hiatus? Mine says GMC on the front and on the horn button but it says Isuzu on every sticker and data plate on the truck. It seems from the article that they are suggesting it is a different truck competing with Isuzu. If you go for the gas motor you get a GM 6.0 and a GM transmission. I don't know about other areas but we have an Isuzu truck dealer within 20 miles in any direction. The best thing about this though is that while they were apart, GM dealers could get parts for the trucks but there were issues with warrantees (friend that works parts at local GMC/ Isuzu dealer told me this, I'm assuming he was right) so this should take care of that. It seems that they are saying that Chevy dealers wont work on your NPR unless you glue a bowtie to the front.

Amen. I walked by Trump tower yesterday.  Not one single protester (snowflake ) on site. It was about 10am so they might not have rolled their sorry asses out of bed yet or maybe the DNC and Soros checks didn't clear. 

They used the 57-59 A series cab for these with different front sheetmetal.

Same cab and interior as mine but steering wheel on the wrong side

Herbie and his family are some of the best people I've ever met.

Nice truck, 7.3 is the best way to go. 6.0 is the express lane to an empty wallet. Mechanic next door to me makes a good living doing egr coolers, head gaskets, injectors etc. on 6 liters.

I was thinking that too, but there isn't a cut out corner for the air filter tube on this one. I think this is a 70 series b cab because

it came with fenders that had the flat extension pieces from the rear of the fenders to the cowl. I couldn't figure out what it was for until I looked at Sandy Angus' B73 (hurstscrambler just posted a photo of it at the detailing shop) a few years ago and the light bulb over my head came on (dimly). I still may be wrong about this which wouldn't surprise me one bit.

West Springfield Ma transfer station

No glovebox stuff but I measured the hood and took these photos

I think I might. I have a hood that came off a b73 or b75.
Let me know the measurement front to back at the hinge and I'll measure the one I have.

Hubcaps for the ED and DE are tough to find and they are a different size and mounting style to the other E's.

yup they sure are hard to find

wonder why the ED used different headlights than the other E's ?  Wasn't there a hubcap available for the rear axle?

He's got other headlights for it that haven't gone on yet. The search for rear hubcaps is ongoing.

Original owner of my single axle Autocar told me he pulled a triaxle tank trailer with it.

Later on he added a pusher though

That cleaned up nice, been parked outside for a couple of years.

Yeah the satin black doesn't blow up everyone's skirt but I'm partial to the hot rod look. It's going to have a lot of red and white pinstriping

Well I got back at it and made some progress, Plumbed the A/C and heat, made a lexan fan shroud and mounted the electric fan, painted and mounted the shutters and started to get the wiring octopus under control.

Busybody do gooders getting themselves elected to city and town councils and writing restrictive sign  bylaws that make it impossible to get permits for these and also these are really expensive to build now.

I did a google search and found photos of them in their natural habitats

Finally got the last of 30 signs up. Saved the biggest for the last. 2 weeks from now we get to take them all down.

DC 75,that's a sharp autocar,is that grille guard a factory option? My cousin had an Astro similar to the one in the picture.

That's a stock Autocar grill guard. Seems like all of them in New England had one.
