Brian L Blaylock Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 No I looked at it in Madisonville Ky right after the man who built it had passed away and his widow had it for sale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian L Blaylock Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 I was there in about 2001 maybe I saw a different truck but a lot of things are similar including the V8 the lift axle and the interior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark T Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 The one I saw was often on Route 322 in Pennsylvania. If I remember it was pulling a hopper. This was only a couple years ago. It was a working truck. A friend who was familiar with it told me it was an E9 and mentioned the Kenworth. This Kenworth was an extended hood W900 and I was told it had a 5EK Cat in it. That truck I often saw pulling a dump trailer. They were both painted the same (and looked fantastic) I used to have the Kenworth on my old phone as the wallpaper.... only cause I never saw the Mack sitting still. I'm certain if it wasn't wrecked 😳 it's around somewhere. They really are a classy looking truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 2,000 built and every year more re-appear, I wonder how many actually survived? Sacrilege that someone would have the balls to steal the fenders off it! A thought on that, I wonder if a pair of Peterbilt aluminum front fenders could be re-worked to fit, at least to get it back on the road. Someone was making fiberglass LT fenders a long time ago, but I don’t recall who. I thought of that too they really don’t look that different also I have never seen a speedometer that went up at a high but I have been driving freight trucks all my life Where are usually governed it 66 speedometer only goes to 80 … bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarnall Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 They are firetruck specific L model fenders after 1950. Not a whole lot of people looking for them, but if you need them there they are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
