Yes, it is.

That's one well recognized B-model.

Do you know how she's doing at the moment?

BTW never knew about BMT calendars.

I sold it to a man in Kentucky, he posted a video of it on YouTube a few years ago. He has taken the mixer drum off of it, and that's all I know about it's current status. 

Here's the last picture I saw of it-

Seems it was a different color… Bob

Well, it was a little bit different when I got it. It was solid red and the mixer drum was all gray. I had the fenders painted black, and I painted the drum and the wheels myself- in the yard with a roller and brushes. I used farm implement paint from Tractor Supply.

Here's a picture when it was all red, but I had painted the wheels a little. I know I had a picture that was taken shortly after I got it when it was still parked at H.H. Moore Trucking, but it must be in a photo album and they're all in Spout Spring.

Here's one taken at the old Stonewall Antique Power Show, that they no longer have.

well, that's how it usually works. I found a scan of the picture I wanted, this is before I even drove it home.

I had started doing a little work on it then, there was paint on the wheels, I put the Car Quest mud flaps in front of the tires and the mud flaps and hangers on the rear. The rear hangers was a big piece of angle iron that went all the way across the frame. I probably accumulated it from around the shop somewhere. I had to get two steer tires before I could drive it home, all these tires were good for was keeping the front axle off the ground.

It looks good as it is now but remove of the mixer unit seems as a shame. Would be cool looking tractor or a flat bed but mixer was its especiality on my mind.

Mine was a dump truck i was supposed to swap for a flatbed deal never went through completely kind of a long story. The guy help me take it off with a payloader, but we never finish the transaction. I am kind of kicking myself. Lots of years later I should’ve left it alone…. Bob

Oh by the way Tom, thanks for all your updates. … on mixer and thanks for the post. You probably wish you didn’t get rid of it. I’ve thought of selling mine many times only reason I still have it is because nobody else wanted it I couldn’t get rid of it. Bob

I think if I still had it now I could get three times as much as I sold it for. I see a lot of B models in way worse condition going for a whole lot more nowadays.
