    A guy stopped by the house this afternoon,said he had an old B model dump that belonged to his dad,that he wanted rid of. I had sold parts to his dad a few years back,but had never seen the truck. We went to give it a look over and got it bought. Pretty solid old single axle B61T, 673 with a Duplex,dump bed was pretty straight. fenders and grille a little beat,an the whole thing was painted yellow several years ago,inside and out, chrome, wheels, bed , everything. It was parked in a dark building,so no pics yet. He was gonna drag it out and get it started for me to pick up tomorrow.

    the 300+ was made for use with a 10 speed,and with the operating range,would not work well at all with a 5 or 6 speed.,but you could put any trans. you wanted behind a 675 or 676,I've seen 10 and 13 speed fullers,10 and 12 speed Macks,, them.about anything you can imagine behind .

    if it's a '53 it's almost gotta be an A model. If the ID tag is missing from the cab,look on the right side of the frame up near the rear spring hanger.hopefully you can still find the # there if the frame hasn't been chopped. Post pics ASAP.

    yes,the later ones were water cooled.

    675 and 676 were both Maxidynes,built to be used with 5 or 6 speeds.

    ETAZ673A was the 315 hp engine,known as 300+. The B in any of them just meant it was Dynatard equipped.

    I don't know what the Z is all about.

    you've had an engine swap. Someone has put in a 237 (675) and added the tip turbine setup to it. If your engine was original,it would be a ENDT676.

    I'd love to have an old pot like that. Grandpa's first one was a 1960 Wilson 40 footer similar to the 3 on the right. The left 3 appear to be Fruehauf's.

    Fair at best,it's had some older and not done real well repairs. A good body man could save it no doubt,but it's no cherry. The doors do shut nice,though.

    That's so they don't have to stop so often for fuel,less chance of being seen in public that way.

    Congrats.

    Use to haul hogs to Marshall,MO. Wilson had a packing house there,later owned by Excel.
  14. Superdog
    They were built from '59 to '62

    Sounds like you got a G model

    Unless someone has stolen them since I was last there,I have fuel tanks.Also have a budd wheel front axle.

    If the frame wasn't so bad,I'd agree,but it is really bad,rusted,heaved and split.

    I didn't have my camera at the auction,so no pics,but there where 2 other trucks,if I weren't so cash poor right now I would have bought all 3.There was a '64 CO1800 Cargostar IH,345 with 5 speed on the column,single axle with a cheater,didn't run,poor tires,but cab was rust free,box was rusty.It brought $700. The other was a '81 4070B short sleeper with a 20 ft. box,Big Cam 290 with a 10 speed,twin screw,good tires,floaters on the front,ready to go to work,it brought $2300.

    Bought this at a farm sale today.427,5x2,tag axle, air brakes. Been parked about 10 years, had rebuilt engine and new radiator a year before it was parked. Hardly any miles on the front tires,they still look good,no dry rot,bias ply 10:00x20's.4 really good 9:00x20 drive tires. I'm going to knock it in the head,if anybody needs any old Chevy parts,speak up fast.
  20. Superdog
    lots of older farm trucks had cheater axles that could be lifted and lowered manually
  21. Superdog
    That's Tom Bronge's still has the V8,low mile truck
  22. Superdog
    Looks like a pretty straight unmolested truck, but I'd sure lose that 9 speed and swap in a 2 stick 4x4. Then I'd glider kit it into a RL700.
  23. Superdog
    I don't think Diamond Reo did either, by the time REO and Diamond T merged, Diamond T was only using the Autocar "Driver's cab". DR did use the REO cab, which looked slightly similar.
  24. Superdog
    Cline,also.
