  12. Hell, yeah that’s some cool stuff. I thought you were just barely starting out looking for your first one.Bob
  13. No, they do not but things gorgeous. That was the next thing I was gonna say every time you do come across one seems it’s beat the hell. Bob
  14. same here, bud thanks for all your input. It worked for me too. Nothing else embarrassing. This thing has been sitting here. So long but then again, none of us are 20 years old well one of us is now but we all have to squeeze these things in between everything else. When we’re very young, we really don’t have anything to do but work and play with your car. You are still an amazing inspiration for all of us thank you…. Bob
  15. hey bud, welcome aboard pick your poison ha ha you’re looking at a lot of work no matter what you decide
  16. well thier all beefy trucks,,,,strait B models,are alot easier to find versus B75 or 73 L cab or an LTL good luck,,,bob
  17. If you have not moved the engine, be sure to pull out all the spark plugs and shoot a bunch of mystery oil into the cylinders before you do anything and leave it. Sit for a week or so I believe ignition parts are still available from what I hear, good luck.
  18. We all hate to see any of them sitting buried in trees like that. I’m sure there is at least a lot of parts on that thing somebody could use. but by now the floors are probably all done. Who knows
  19. My god that cab looks like it doesn’t need anything but primer and paint that’s 90% of your issues. Usually you got it whooped bud. A lot of us pretty much have to rebuild the bottom of any cab And doors wow
  20. Right on man that’s a great deal and that truck never gets tiring. Thank you so much for the photo…/ bob
  21. Also check your kingpins for grease and any play
  22. I was gonna mention the same thing you might find that it’s not very hard to steer at all. I’ve driven many big rigs, full-size manual, steering that weren’t very hard to steer at all. Mack’s whites As he says, it’s going to be a big headache to install one and you probably really don’t even need it
  23. Sure looks like a lot there to work with your shop looks huge
  24. not really necessary unless they are scored beyond turning or cracked
  25. That’s pretty much my plans get it mechanically sound do the body nose and interior….. undercarriage I will pick at slowly after that if I live long enough, I will be driving it around and enjoying it… bob
