My truck buddy JD Smith found a White 5000 15 plus years ago. I have ended up with it through his estate. It is quite a piece to say the least. We did a quick PIE red paint job on it one year and he took off to Brooks Oregon for the show. Ken Goudy came over and took a good look and a few hours came back with PIE stickers for it. As soon as they were put on it the crowd started to gather around it. JD always said that Ken putting those PIE stickers on it made a truck out of it! It takes 7 fan belts to run the fan. When the cab is tilted the radiator goes with the cab and the fan sits by itself. In Australia they had 2 of them and they did not hold up. A driver down under told me after his first trip through the outback the floor board and air seat was sitting on the tire when he rolled in...............they called them a Tupperware tilt cab.
