tyrant Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Hello all, have been lurking for a couple days and want to say hello.Just picked up a 1980 RD686 with a 4,000 gal Vacuum tank on back. She has some miles on her but I'm going to try to put her to work.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120735144107&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT#ht_500wt_975http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/140527975933?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fmotors.shop.ebay.com%3A80%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dm570.l2736%26_nkw%3D140527975933%2B%26_fvi%3D1&_rdc=1#ht_500wt_975She found me on Ebay, hopefully one of the links above work so you all can see her.Thanks to this forum I was able to find a ops manual. Thanks Barry for sharing that wonderfully awesome PDF file.We are flooding in ND and I'm going to use the truck for clean up and basement water removal.I will be picking the truck up on the 30th and have been surfin hard trying to figure out specs...My google- foo is weak as I cannot get the actual engine or tranny.... I know the tranny is a twin stick, previous owner wasn't a big fan. But untill I clean off some numbers on the actual truck I'm left guessing.Probably will be asking allot of questions to you guys, Thanks in advance.Norm in North Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhasler Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Welcome, looks like a pretty solid truck. Are my eyes deceiving me or does it have fender skirts? Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrant Posted June 18, 2011 Author Share Posted June 18, 2011 Yep the bed imitates a fuel truck. I haven't touched the truck yet, just going off what I was told by the seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
