RoadwayR Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 It's definitely a White 3000. Could have a REO Gold Comet gas V-8 in it, a few 3000's were built with them. Maybe seller thinks it has a Dodge engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
41chevy Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 That's defiantly a Gold Comet V8, tell it is by their distinct exhaust manifolds and the ribbed rocker covers. An easy mistake because it looks close to the Chrysler's RB 350/ 361 truck V-8. Seller probably assumes it's Chryco. 1 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h67st Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 There doesn't appear to be much rust on it...that would be an excellent project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobert62 Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Not to offend anyone, but I think that thing is so ugly its kinda cool. I think it needs some blown big block so you could drive around and do wheelies with it. It looks like a wheelie waiting to happen just the way it sits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j hancock Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I always saw the 3000 in the opposite way from the wheelies. Nail the brakes and it would flip onto the front of the cab! Does look clean. 2 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobert62 Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 The tandem dump looks pretty good. Guess I'm not totally nuts about sticking big hp in one, since there's already a drag truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freightrain Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I don't recall seeing many growing up? I went to grade school next to the highway and living a few blocks away I could hear trucks pulling the grade all night with the windows open. The most memorable one was when I went to Syracuse National convention(2003). An orange one showed up pulling a couple coils.....basically in it's work clothes.

41chevy Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) On L.I.N.Y. a lot were used for gas station delivery, both A&P and Bohacks ran them and even a few heating oil companies used them for residential delivery. Seem to vaguely remember Boar's Head Meats using them also. A company ran a 4x4 version with a big diesel in it, the rad was actually mounted on the right rear of the cab. Yellow and Green colors and ran in the mountains in to Cali I think.

h67st Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 I remember seeing them on the road when I was growing up, of course not nearly as many as B models or some other trucks. This is one of my grandfather's trucks, I think he just had one 3000. The photo was taken sometime in the 50's but no date on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
