  1. Thanks this truck was for sale about 3 years ago and I missed it then and Id be damned if i was gonna let it slip past me this time
  2. I like the table idea..... Hmmmmmm
  3. I really like the original red white and blue paint scheme on the R and the lil B dump
  4. Theres some cool pieces of iron out there
  5. Great lookin tractor!!! Shutters give it mean look
  6. Ok when i get her home ill do some digging for the frame number
  7. Ok ill do that.... Where would the frame number be at?
  8. Ok have to start keeping my eyes peeled for 24.5's then. I like the big cab protector and the high sidded body too. I would just air her up and pull start her but its down in their back yard so ill have to either drive her out or tow it. It was starting fine and now the starter doesnt turn and the wiring is gonna need some help so im figureing to jump the starter over and go from there
  9. 10.00x22. I remember being told once but have forgot, what size can I replace the 22's with?
  10. Well i just shook on the deal on a 57 b61 single axle dump 673(?) quad box with 89kmiles doesnrt run it was but they say the starter wont spin in guessing something electrial. In the bed is 2 spare doors a set of b67 hoods and another set if hoods that i couldnt see if ut had any emblims. And there is a spare rearend housing. The cab is very good except for the windsheild posts have a few holes. Going to go monday and hopefully pick it up and ill post more pics then
  11. Agree rd is going to be way better for a dump in getting into rough places because of spring ride. My experence air ride cant equalize the weight evenly like the tronion can on uneven ground and you end up with one axle with more weight on it than the other and you start spinning. so as soon as you go off blacktop with air ride might as well hit the power divider
  12. These are all very good questions that you need to know the awnsers to esp in response to the weight limits, truck weight, and how your paid. Be ause if you can only haul for instance 30,000lbs legally because of limits and heavy steel body and rims and your paid by the ton i hope its a short haul.
  13. I have gotten lots of decent tire for my old trucks out of the junkyard. Some hauls or drives a truck in and chances are there is atleast one decent tire it and trailers getting scrapped alot of times will have decent tires. Not i wouldnt want to drive cross country for a living with 2nd hand junkyard tires but for a hobby truck or local run dump they do fine for me. And sence used tires are not worth anything to the scrapper alot of the time they will give them to you just to get rid of them
  14. Ya im looking for one too but im goin back and forth between a lund visor or what i call a austrailian type of drop visor
  15. Im with 2stack im leaning tword fire apparatius
  16. Most f's had rust problems on the back of the cab and floors. Where is the truck at? I can think of a bunch of uses for that lil thing
  17. Looks great!!!!! Just needs the long grover air horn and youll be in there. Thumbs up on the build!
  18. I agree with the general concenus of 2-3500 and i agree that while the contour cab is a lil rarer and kinda neat its got to be a pain to actually drive
  19. Purchased a mack parts manual. Book was in excellent condition just as described Shipping was fast and manual was well boxed Would not hesitate to buy from KCAM again

  20. Ok well after looking at it close i see that its not a trailer just the angle of the pic looks like a short trailer but its just the bed. Ok the cannonball was coe from the same era correct?
  21. WOW!!!! Where is this place at???? Im loving the old trailers esp the lil tandem flatbed behind the yellow tractor and whats the scoop onthe old gmc cannonball. Looks like a wrecker
  22. My dm has the same seat. Fairly comfy
  23. Id love to get ahold of a b81. But to many irons in the fire and im running out of places to keep them
