Very nice. Good job.

V ery nice pictures. thanks for posting.

My mistake, a 1965 not 1956. Didnt get a chance to fire it up yesterday, but will shoot a vid of it and post it. Was cleaning out the cab to see what kind of stuff is shoved underneath the seats. Checked the fluids in everything and added a gallon of antifreese to it. Pulled the batteries to clean the post connectors and put my batteries from my B61 in to roll her over. Think I will change out the steer tires before I play with it down the road. Pretty weathered. I think the future intent of this will be removing the ram and putting a 5th wheel. Brocky, maybe your idea of the flares with floats would be pretty cool and give it a tough look. The more I think about it, the more I like that.

Will do. Suppose to be in the 50's here today so I might get to fire her up later today. Going to clean her out first but a very solid cab. The flared front fenders got to go. The plan is if she fires up and runs fine, then I will start on this one first. Pull the cab and start restoring that.

Just picked up a 1956 B-53 tri axle. Original 273. Going to try to get her running today. Was running when parked 3 years ago. First thought about using her for parts, but it is too clean to cut up. Will just add it to the fleet of projects to start. Need a bigger pole shed.
