    OH YES,, That’s the Sound i grew up on! Great Work!

    I think it looks Great! I would pick that over the Original! Nice work. That’s going to be one sharp H Model!

    That’s the light Brown we matched with the photo gun at the DuPont store, from inside the glove compartment door and under the front brake control metal indicator, which was original paint,, it’s hard to tell with that photo I posted,, the sun was very bright. Thank you , I enjoy all replies, keeps me motivated.

    Very nice,, looking forward to hearing the backdrop with a stack,, it’s going to be different that’s for sure!

    I may have set the cab on with no rubber mounts, thinking if it clears without, it should be even better with mounts,, but I still think the frame mounts are higher on the B73 , I’ve never compared a LT , but looking at the pictures I think they are higher also. I’ve found a lot of changes over the years in what I thought would be the same on L Cabs .

    A little progress today, now for a lot of taping.

    Yes it looks 3 or 4 inch’s higher then my LJ , But I think the wrap is a good idea anyway because it’s still closer to the floor then the routing of a center drop . A lot to hook up, but a Lot behind you also !
  8. 1961H67
    Yes I think the L cab on the B73 is probably a few inches Higher then on a LJ . Perfect!

    My goodness that’s nice! It also looks like the Backdrop has enough clearance, from what I can see? Beautiful,,, Congratulations on a Milestone! Thanks for sharing the great pictures.

    A little more progress today, got all the dash and interior ready for some light brown ( except for door panels, not ready yet) .

    Yes, good point. Most of the piping is pretty much measure and cut after you get your stacks mounted.
  13. 1961H67
    The R is going to be the same as a Superliner, and most Superliners had twin stacks, if you found a parts truck you could get all your stack mounts, the Y pipe can be bought new, most all pipe sizes are 5 inch ( if it’s 4 off the turbo I would step it up to 5 before the Y ) . We have 5 Superliners so if you need any measurements let me know,, also what engine is your R ?

    It’s going to be Absolutely Beautiful! Looks like smooth sailing with the right equipment! Will be waiting on Sunday evening pictures!

    Yes that forklift attachment is very handy, we use it often, The pool Noddles saved the day! Thank you, starting to make progress.

    Great looking Superliner , V8 ?

    I finally got a few hours to work on the cab on a nice day, I painted the bottom of the cab and the firewall red ( same as the frame) because when Coca Cola Painted it there colors in 1951 all this and under the hood and fenders were still the factory red, I’m going to get it as close to how it was as possible.

    Looking Great, very detailed! Exhaust will work just fine !
  19. 1961H67
    Yes, Waynesville is much closer for me also,, and a great show. It will probably come down to my Grandson’s decision, since I already told him about the Trains . Hoping for good weather at both shows.

    Truck Show at the North Carolina Transportation Museum coming up this Saturday, if anyone is near central NC drop by , it’s always nice!

    Looking really good, I think you will be good on clearance, I looks like the same angle I had mine when I set the cab to make sure it would clear. I haven’t worked on mine in about 2 weeks. Hopefully I can get some time this week. I Can’t wait to hear the Backdrop in a pull , it’s been a long since I have heard one.
  22. 1961H67
    Yes! That is a Great Look!
  23. 1961H67
    O yes!
  24. 1961H67
    Looking Great! I’m in the same situation, I tore the LJ apart in 1996 . Hopefully you will have good weather for running your air & hyd lines, It’s coming together!
  25. 1961H67
    Thank You! It looks pretty dang close to what I have already painted my fuel tank, we waxed some of the Yellow under the emblems , then used the code picture to come up with the color, The next time I go to the paint store I’ll give them the number on your chart , just to see if it will crossover. Thanks Again!
