  2. This could be a really nice truck--V8 motor and 10 speed. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/4039016026353103/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks
  3. I dug this kit out of my storage shed the other day, it belonged to my grandfather. If you can read the fusees, it says "Jan 1961" and this kit has obviously never been used. I'm going to clean it up and put it in my Mack since it's period correct (1959) but I'm going to dispose of the flares since they're flammable. I was in Fostoria Ohio in 1978 when the Railroad Fuse plant exploded; it lifted me off the floor even though I was a couple blocks away from the factory. It knocked houses off their foundations.
  4. I sure like those chrome daytons...you don't see those very often!
  5. Well, I can't help there...my trucks are H67 and they have a completely different mount than that. Is that the handle mounting? My handle mounts on the cab floor.
  6. I have TRD-67 and TRD-720 transmissions in mine, I may have a spare brake mount if you can post a photo of what your transmission looks like (where the brake mounts).
  7. Here's one for the E6, is that what you're working on? https://dieselpartscenter.com/products/primer-pump-genuine-pai-3586?variant=45154128167070&country=US&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21837293241&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIgvHK58CUjwMVWk1HAR02ZRV0EAQYAyABEgIpKPD_BwE
  8. That LJ sure shines under the lights, it turned out fantastic even though it went through the flood!
  9. One guy on here said to turn the wheels all the way left and grease it there, then all the way right and grease it there (with it jacked up as you say). Seems to make sense.
  10. In 1974 (when he had the truck), gas was $0.39/gallon.
  11. My dad had a White Mustang single axle tractor with a gas engine, he said it got 2 mpg. It was a former Coca-Cola truck.
  12. Here's a reproduction insert for an L model, if it doesn't look like yours you could ask the guy if he has an E model liner. https://www.ebay.com/itm/175115454458
  13. Here's a 4000.
  14. I know one problem they had with the turbines, they intake a huge amount of air and they couldn't figure out how to filter all the dirt before it went into the engine.
  15. When I was a kid, my dad got Commercial Carrier Journal magazine. I still have a floppy vinyl record that was stapled in there one month, called "Sounds of the turbine powered Peterbilt". Too bad the concept never worked out.
  16. Plus one on Brocky's comments, I spent $62k on mine and that was with me doing quite a bit of the work.

    Let me know what parts you need.
  18. Can you post a pic of what you need, or send me a PM with a photo?
  19. $450, sounds like a good price to me. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1789191051637066/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_general&referral_story_type=general&tracking={"qid"%3A"-8594903624923069138"%2C"mf_story_key"%3A"7633824589226961945"%2C"top_level_post_id"%3A"7633824589226961945"%2C"commerce_rank_obj"%3A"{\"target_id\"%3A7633824589226961945%2C\"target_type\"%3A6%2C\"primary_position\"%3A18%2C\"ranking_signature\"%3A9089173456472623631%2C\"commerce_channel\"%3A501%2C\"value\"%3A0.00010638413247458%2C\"upsell_type\"%3A129%2C\"candidate_retrieval_source_map\"%3A{\"8769780349813100\"%3A3011%2C\"24334033409530125\"%3A701%2C\"9758009477587437\"%3A3547}%2C\"grouping_info\"%3Anull}"%2C"lightning_feed_qid"%3A"-8594978323038559566"%2C"lightning_feed_ranking_signature"%3A"9089173456472623631"}
  20. Really sharp truck...I like those polished tube-type budds on the steer.
  21. What I've done in the past is cut a slot like he's already done, make sure the thing is soaked thoroughly with penetrant, then air chisel the slot in the removing direction. You can peel a lot of them off that way, and often the rattling and oil will loosen the thing up before you peel it off. If you're careful you won't damage the stud.
  22. Here's a video of a guy replacing broken torsion bars on an F model. He has 14 F models! He's got some really good videos on the tube of you.
  23. No charge!
  24. Early 60s? I was born in 63! I lived in farm country, northern Ohio in the 70s; we had a 4 person party line. One lady would give us a certain amount of time on a call, if she thought you should be done she'd pick up the receiver and ring a cowbell in the mouthpiece.
  25. My dad bought a lot of parts from Mack for his trucks, they gave him a phone receiver cover with a bulldog on it. I don't know if I still have it...remember back in the day almost all phones were the same?
