PM me some pics when you get a chance ranchhopper.

Thanks

Dealer still sell them? Never know with Volvo...

Anybody making them for a B?

Matt had the opportunity when it was for sale, we talked. Timing just wasn't right for him... Aint happening now, he likes V8 R models too and can negotiate on that one if he likes

Main reason I'm thinking of parting with the R is to put up a shelter for this truck.

Your right Matt, but it all worked out in the end.

I know, I'm really on the fence about this. I just don't have a lot of room right now. My B is definitely a keeper at this point and I really want to focus on that. If I can find the right person to be the caretaker for the R I will, if not no big deal.

Due to getting my B75 back, the R is on the market for now..."73 R795ST,i bought it from the ORIGINAL OWNERS!Truck is from New Jersey but was moved to South Carolina in the "80's.It was ordered new by them as a lowboy truck,pulling dump trailer on occasion.ENDT865 @325HP(engine brake) with a 6 speed low hole.44K rears,full double frame with NO spreading!Everything on this truck is straight and tight as it has low original miles/hours.Very dry as well,not full of leaks...Cab roof ...panel has some rust,but is repaiable.Comes with a N.O.S piece if you wanted to go that route,drip edge is nice.Has the nicer interior,bullet lights,AC,chrome grill,adjustable fifth wheel.Would be an easy truck to restore,or paint it and keep it mostly original as a nice survivor.It sit's tall and level,hood is nice,doors close like new,nice glass ect....Don't need to part with it(or sure if I want to),just seeing what's out there for trade???CLEAR TITLE.Located in the Commerce GA area off Interstate 85 exit's 147/149.PM me an email address for additional pics. Best offer, poss. partial trades for???

Just got her cranked up and went for a quick spin around the block. Soon as I hit the button she was idling, just like old times

Your right Mike, should have never sold it. Needed money at the time(don't we all...). May part with my R700, don't have enough room,time or money for a lot of trucks right now.

Yes, 1960 B75T.

Wow Wobblin that B is coming along great! Nothing like a nice quality "driver restoration" IMO

The old dog got hungry I guess

Now what shall I do with it???

Kind of too bad that one didn't pan out,hope the first true production R is out there somewhere...

Seems to be a market for these!

That is one sweet F!!!V8,perfect wheelbase,nice survivor...

Rust is a problem with anything made from steel

Looks great,good to see another one saved

Comin along great,keep it up

Saw that on Facebook.

Nothing like a nice "driver restoration"

I've asked many people down here "How much would you take?" after looking at something.Most times they look at me like I have three heads and say the price it's advertised is THE price

Not far from me,wish it was a tandem.People down here will let stuff sit for yeeeears without taking less money.Blows my mind...
