68-f-model

details.  ?

Ah the blue one already has my initials on it.  

Nice looking trucks, good luck with the sale.

I am guessing the freightliner has a chopped  top.   How much was taken out?

Chain it up for the snow.

It went for a fairly high price considering the looks of it.  $3,691

If someone tried that with my F-model they had better hope I didn't catch them.

Voted and for once my choice succeeded.

yep,  only the finest  5"  pipe that was kicking around in the shop at the time and just had to have the flappers.   Good news though,  the mack is staying put .   Now happly holding down the back yard at the new house. Situations have turned for the better and now it can await  its well deserved new parts. Hopefully I can either get my cdl or figure out a way to use it without a cdl.  (any insight ??)

Nice looking R model. 

I am just putting some thought into things lately as I don't have a CDL and hate to see this just sitting in the back yard only to be driven in circles once or twice a week.

I have two more sets of the wide tires and rims  (385/65r22.5) if anyone could use them.

All I know is that as far out as 2020 there isn't any plans for anything but 12 volt systems on all standard cars and trucks at Ford.   Even the new  Ford Cargo semi in Europe is 12 volts as far as everything I have worked on goes.  

100db that is a bit on the loud side for road trips, ear plug time .

i must be getting old 

You would seriously have to work to roll something that low and on tracks over. 

Nice truck those old Willys are a habit that grow on you .  My 58 fc170 has led to many a purchase of jeep/Willys parts.

I have two pair of wide Dayton steer rims with old 385/65r22.5 tires on them  (still holding air with little/some tread).

One pair is a slightly different off set than the other.

$50 obo a pair

located in Constantine Michigan.  (near kalamazoo)

(I took the third set in the pictures (middle row in first picture)  and put them on my F-model.  They had the largest offset/ stick out  and make an additional "step" for getting in and out )

It is a work in progress.  I am hoping for a vintage air set up eventually when I get it all rust replaced and the glass put back in.

I am lucky enough to own one.  

1958 fc-170,  307 Chevy power to original 3 speed, hydraulic dump bed.

Soon  to have 1 ton axles and disk brakes all around.  I prefer to stop vs kinda stop.

Well the weather should be just about perfect for the install this weekend.

Not a fan of the new format either. 

Twin 671's on the tc-12 sounds like all kinds of fun.

On the pictures I just saved them off to my I-phone and then rotated, resaved, and reposted them.

I like that rear window. Anyone know if that was a factory option?
