  1. I was thinking it’s probably a good chance. That’s what he has.
  2. I’m still not sure about my 66 from what I’ve seen in literature. It’s either a 205 or 211 hp
  3. I had a 62F model where the non-turbo it was a 180 so I’m sure it’s somewhere in there… bob
  4. Oh, I forgot to add the bud wheels will be a big plus lots of guys want to get rid of the spokes, both front and rear again good luck.. bob
  5. Yes, you’ve got lots of people’s attention . Good luck most.Fellas looking for that stuff. Do not really want to pay a whole lot. Regular guys with restoration projects. And lower gears are not going to move everybody wants tall gears … plus shipping is a fortune.. gotta be pretty much within driving distance good luck to you. Yes they will be lots of interest for sure for all of it…. Bob
  6. I think mine was a six speed two sticks I do remember you could shift gears in reverse.. Bob
  7. Do you know it was a good idea. I didn’t care for them at all especially running one of a lot of upgrades. They’re probably a lot more fun on flat ground haha bob
  8. I owned a five speed 237 years ago, that thing drove me crazy
  9. And yes vlad I am still spraying and banging those bolts every time I thing of it one came out out of 5 I was concerned about… Bob
  10. OK fellas thanks for that. I am fixing on buying of 10 at the same time and as I always say I hope I live long enough to put a few miles on them lol Bob
  11. Interesting thanks for that… bob
  12. God love them for sticking with it… bob
  13. Right?????lol Bob
  14. I’m not even allowed to stop at yard sales ha ha old lady says I don’t think so fat man
  15. Got more more parts ordered Saturday from watts and more sanding… I’m sticking to the 2 the great advice I got … keep it in front of you .. hadda spend most of weekend traveling to California for nephews baby girls first birthday hadda blast lotsa family.. bob
  16. All of ours do a pretty good job. There’s only a couple of things I don’t like about them couple of maneuvers you’re better off to use the manual position if you don’t have enough patience to wait for over transmission to decide the gears I ordinarily downshift them manually on a long grade because they drag all the way down to just under 10 and at that point engine isn’t pulling anymore
  17. Took me a while to figure out what you were talking about. I got it …ha ha that thing was absolutely gorgeous .. I originally wasn’t going to take any pictures of it and then I got to looking at it a little closer and I mean it was immaculate hundred percent restoration. There was no flaws on that thing at all every detail covered it actually looked a lot better than the photograph shows.
  18. Thanks for that Tom love that Chevrolet stake body or at least that’s what it looks like possibly grain box amongst many others … bob
  19. Thankfully, they got me in another 579 three axle . Older one ,,,ordinarily, where yours is down they give you something different every day. That’s sucks big time.
  20. I guess I probably better throw. In the fact they don’t want to pay union people to put this stuff together they would rather have it keep failing and save money seems like that would blow up in our face, and they had to keep replacing the junk for free over????????? Lol bob
  21. Do you know I’m not a Volvo fan at all butt company tryed a bunch of them a few years ago and they were nothing but problems but when I think back, it was all computer malfunctions everything else seem to stay together seems these newer ones all have the same issue electric garbage shipped in a can. Produce by sweatshops
  22. Are older T 800 or definitely more reliable, especially right out the gate
  23. You know, I really didn’t think I was going to like them first day in one I was already sold Holy cow after a few hours. This is the way to go after 30 years of shifting them I didn’t think I was going to get used to it that fast… bob
  24. Plus, the fact these trucks are priced way out of control now days as Paul brought up 30 gees for an upgrade, you got to be shitting me!!!!!!!
  25. So the truck keeps going back for warranty work ha ha I don’t know how they could think this is saving anybody money
