    Just out of curiosity when I went to work yesterday, I looked for a spot to put it and no but there is a square plate where it would fit one, but that’s where they mounted the ELD…. And yes they are definitely a touch of back home simplicity …. Did we ever figure out what the mystery switch is ? bob

    I heard most of these snipers are Democrats. I don’t know what’s up with that or how true was but that’s what I heard….. but back to this . I guess they’re afraid their rigged election will backfire and blow up in their face this time since everybody’s watching them. What is it? They say wait till we count all the dead people and their cartoon characters.

    I went and looked at one. I almost bought around 20 or so years ago. I want to say it was a 62 and I was sure it had a glass nose but it was a long time ago….. and like most of us.. my mind is slipping… bob

    Not much to say this time, I’m just disgusted with the entire mess Too many people with too much power sucking out all our money. And do absolutely nothing to improve this place.

    I would’ve guessed around 65 or 66 if I had to take a wild guess

    According to Google search, seems Kenworth had it early 60s right after the original needle nose butterfly hood somewhere in there… bob
  13. mowerman
    Not sure I know the older Kenworth had a glass nose as well right around the same time. I think they both came out with the nose fiberglass same year. Claras think about it. I think Kenworth actually was first.

    Well, might have to scratch the sanding three guys out back installing a fence running this loud machine digging holes. Dogs won’t start barking. Might have to put it off another week oh well two more weeks and I have all the freetime I could handle.

  19. mowerman
    I am not sure what you’re talking about but I’m sure other guys will chime in and yes, I don’t think you’re gonna have to need that device. Just an option as I said I bought everything at Home Depot right off the shelves…. Right now mine keeps losing prime so I have to blow it just about every time I start it so far I’ve only changed the oil lines. Haven’t done anything with any other others yet…. It was starting with a little ether now that’s not even doing it after one week. It’s already got air in it. And I usually start every Saturday.

    my god,,,,,what a good lookin SOB for the price,you could probably put it to work,and not have any trouble with it for quite a while,,, thanks for that,,,,,,that sucker would look right nice in my driveway,,,you hear me?????? lol bob
  21. mowerman
    and yes i also have a 66DM and i would swear all my lines were original,although i dont know if thats possible
  22. mowerman
    if its very stubborn and still wont catch i made this up got everything at home depot to blow air into the fuel tank only around 20 lbs,,,the chrome thing is a fence post cap drilled a hole and put in this air nipple works like a champ,,,bob

    The guys were disgusting cab similarities with the MB and the white 1500. I always thought the same thing about those old fire engines right there to me. The cab looks a lot like the white mustang cab. I never really paid that much attention but I don’t know how close they are, but they sure look alike. … bob
