ya,,,thats all i got is shitty memories,,,of that thing,,,couldnt wait to get rid of it,,,when i got the 350,,,i was about pissing myself,pulling them same 10 mph hills,,,at like 38 mph instead,,on the same run,,,,oh ya baby,,,this is more like it.lol,,,couldnt even run with my pals,,back then,,,soon as i hit a little hill,,,they would blow my doors off,,,and never see them again,,,couldnt even stop for coffee,,had to keep on rolling,,or i would be late,,plus..only had it for one year,,and had to do an inframe,,,fuel pump,,blown fuel line,,and a water pump,,,so as far as realiability i didnt have that either,,,so thats why i have such a sour attitude,,,that thing just cost me allotta grief,money and time.lol.bob

ah god love ya,,,have a ball...ive been out there 40 years and lookin forward to retirement.but i do remember,,training on a U model mack,,,and couldnt wait to get out therelol.bob

sorry to hear that hand,,,but i would give my left nut,,for a stock knuckle,,,thier as rare as hens teeth,,and people usuall want a fortune for them...bob

ya,,,im with you man,,,good luck to him,,,but he,ll probably have to knock a couple G,s off,,,id like to have the short nose,,,with the 300,,,but im strickly in this for pleasure ,,not work,,as far as this old stuff go,s...bob

didnt care for the 6 speed either,,,but as i said,,,best of luck with it,,and hope you can deal with lotsa 4 way flashers.lol.bob

hehehe,,,you flatlanders all think alike,,,try it on a good grade,,with 70 thousand,10 miles an hour,,you will be ready to get out and beat it to death with a sledge hammer...bob

both very cool,,,thanks for sharing,,,they both seem alittle pricey,,,but non entirely for the mileage,,,they both got lotsa life left...but they both look to be 66-67,,with the light green,,and those older horn caps...bob

excellant,looks good,,thanks for sharing,,,keep us updated in progress,,,i think most of us have a time problem,,,we got plenty of time for work,,,no time for anything else...bob

best of luck to ya,,,hope it all works out,,,least you picked a cool truck,,,to drag your feet in.lol.bob

best wishes man,,,and have a swingin time.bob

clever,,tom looks good,,,i tryed to post a picture of mine..and it wont take for some reason,,,but your idea was better...bob

looks like my old one,,,sold it in 1990...bob

ya,,,back when you could buy a cool car for around 100 bucks,,and gas was 29 cents a gallon,,,and dug right here.lol.bob

hey man,,,best wishes,,,and have a swingin time....bob

always liked those KW cabovers myself,,,only drove 1 for a week rental with armstrong steering,,,and man was that wheel hard to turn,,at slow speeds lol.also like like the chick...and welcome home....bob

   well i also ran a 180 naturally asperated,,,and i didnt think the 237 was much better,,,even had it dynoed,,,and the mechanic told me its doing what its supposed to,,,but i had mine in the 80,s when guys with 350,and 400 cummins,,were blowing my doors off,even on flat ground,,with a strong headwind,,,it would pull me down to like 55,,i suppose in like 1967 they seemed pretty healthy.lol.bob

hey,,best wishes,,,and have a swingin time...lol.bob

sound like i hurt somebodys feelings.lol...i used to pull loaded doubles up the grapevine,,at around 12 miles an hour,,,with that all mighty 237,,that some of these guys like to rage about,,,then with the 350 thermodyne,,would pull the same hill at around 40.and to boot the mileage was higher in the bigger engine..lol....bob

hey man,,welcome aboard,,and enjoy...bob

looks good,,,have a ball...bob

ya,,,the 237 is a boat ancher,,,i used to run one,,,if you got hills,,,forget it,,,its strickly a flatland motor,,,price dont seem too far off,,,but you wont be happy with the power...and yes you need atleast a 300 plus...bob
