Lopsided cab, funny looking, rollover truck.

Saw this truck down the road at the steel plant. It is their jocky truck. If anyone likes this kind of thing I can post some more pictures.

Awesome!!! Today is my lucky day I guess. I would love more pictures Mike, if you would. Also can you get me the serial number? And pictures? Thank You, Vinny. Also where is this located and what is the company?

Here is another picture of the ugly stepsister of the R model.

That driver's door sure does look funny.

The truck had belonged to Scout Trucking of Spring City, PA. Scout was an off-shoot of Jones Motors. Someone had posted a bunch of pictures of Jones Motors and Scout trucks last year sometime. It currently resides about 0.1 miles from my house at Stainless Corporation.

Wow, thank you Mike!! I knew it looked like a Scout truck. Ive also looked at them albums on here too. Since its prolly not the original serial number on the door you will prolly have to look on the frame right? Is the truck in rough shape?

[umodelnut]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Who in the frig painted FoRd with a smilie face on the hood where it should say Mack?

[yarnall]

Very good, young Vinny. Here is a picture of the serial number plate from the door.

Says its an F747.

Here is a picture of the sticker on the door frame.

I can't read the model number. Whatever ran down it ruined it. I can read U then T 5956. I could not find the serial number on the frame. I scraped around on it, but couldn't find anything.

Sorry.

[umodelnut]

Oooooo, an f model door plate. I would have thought R model or something. Thanks for looking for the serial number for me. What is the motor in it? If its a 237 it would be a U685T. Does it say 3956?

[yarnall]

Funny you should ask. I took some pictures. I had edited the post above. It says 5969.

Here is the last picture of it. Now I'm headed to bed. I hear there is a U model dump truck at the local truck repair shop. Maybe I'll get you some pictures of that.

And here is a picture of a Dodge pick-up. I know you like them too. It was driven to where it sits. I think that was just last year. The owner took his drivers test on it. He is probably 75 years old now.

That's a tip turbine so its either a U686 or a U612.

Yep, your right. But the 12's had a 285 or 300.

GOOD JOB VINNY!

I have proof now that you learn important stuff on here - like how to properly spell WHOA.

i thought in the Tip Turbine days 612 was the 300+ Thermodyne and the 686 was the 285 Maxidyne?

Awwwww, thank you Olive.

[JumperAndSon]

Another dumb question but, what's the difference between a regular Maxidyne and a "Tip Turbine"? I've heard of them, but what are they like?
