Yeah the 5.9 is pretty much bulletproof. I like that the closest thing to a computer on this truck is the radio. It's also a factory A/C which is pretty rare in a 97

 

 

 

5.9 cummins and a seven speed. Not a ton of power but it'll get the job done. Only has 134k on it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I had 2 B67s with driver side single tank and step on passenger side

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My old neighbor was a Toyota mechanic and was doing 3 trucks a week 9 years ago. 

 

 

I'm 6'6" 235lbs I used a b67 concave cab when I built my pickup. Once I figured out how to get in and out I was ok but I do look like Magilla gorilla in there.

 

If you don't want a transfer switch you can use a sliding interlock on the front of the panel that prevents the main and the 30amp generator breakers to be on at the same time. This way you choose what circuits you want to use. The manual transfer switches limit you to 6 or 8 predetermined circuits. Stopped in Harbor Freight today and they had predator generators non inverter types for 40 percent off clearance.  I grabbed a 3500 watt for $281 to have as a spare for work. Couldn't pass that up for that price.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Hobo Freight inverter generators are real quiet. I've got the 8750 watt which runs at 1800 rpm unless you put heavy load on then it kicks up. Even then it's a lot quieter than my old generator

The truth is there is no right thing to please everyone and at the end of the day as long as we are happy with what we have done that is all that matters

 

Oh and by the way, your Chevy B model came out pretty stylish and I  certainly would enjoy it as a daily driver

Thanks Paul

You could say that, or the reverse!! Here is a picture of the DT 931 COE badged a REO. In the 60's White Motor was building DT's, REO's and heavy duty special order White's all on the same line in the old REO plant in Lansing Mich. We had a long discussion of this a couple of years ago on the old ATHS What Am I? forum. There was definitely a lot of mix and match of parts going on. It was possible for three identical trucks to come down the line and then come out the door badged three different brands!!! We guess it was what ever brand the customer wanted or what White though might sell..

That building is still there. I go up and down that street all the time. If anyone is familiar with George's truck repair and heavy towing its about 50 feet to the left of the railroad tracks.

IT'S  SNOWING IN CT  RIGHT NOW !!!!! ''enough for ground to be white..  i really hate this state. was raking leaves yesterday. NO cooking out around here.

New England sucks weatherwise, if I had a time machine I would go back and slap my grandparents around for settling in the people's republic of Massachusetts instead of someplace like  the Carolinas
