Hey all, nice forum. I've been thinking about finding an old B-Model for a couple of years now. I collect old Farmall Cubs and Cub Cadets and it would be cool to have a truck to haul these to shows. I am thinking of an old B-61 with higher rears for cruising the Interstates and A/C (I don't need 110 degree cabs any more). My boss put me in a 57 B-61 Quad box tandem dump when I was 16 back in 1976, took me about a half a mile down the road and said "that's how you drive it". Two days later I pulled out of an old strip cut above the Yough river in PA and proceded to miss a gear, got it into a higher one, over reved the engine, bent a couple push rods and smoked the clutch. I got better quick! He had three B models, two tandem dumps and a tractor. the tractor was wore out pretty bad and had a chain through the dash to over ride the governor (made for some smoke too). 55 mph was about the top speed, downhill with a tailwind. I spent about 5 years in the B and a couple in a DM (that was a tough truck). drove a one of those French Mack city trucks a couple of times and an R-600 on the road. I see Watt's Mack here. I used to work road slides for PennDot (contracted out) in Westmoreland County, we used Watt's and New Stanton Mack for parts. I quit driving about 1990. I keep thinking I miss it then I think about how hot and dirty it was. Pull the throttle on a hill in low low open the door and stand on the fuel tank to stay cool (not really cool, just not as hot). Hydrualic seats trying to put your head through the roof and no power steering jamming your thumb in the wing vent window when you were off road. It's better now, right? I'll have to dig out the old pictures and see if my mom still has the old newspaper that shows my 57 comming up out of a cut with the front tires off the ground. Sorry about the long post but the old trucks are cool and it's nice to find a place like this.
