    How "long" is a long time? Time it to see how long it takes to build.

    Check the volts at the battery with a handheld voltmeter and see where you are at. If it is over charging for too long, you will fry your batteries.

    This rig is located a little further north in Chatham, NY. I figured a good coat of wax and hit the road. Who needs a windshield or brakes or......

    Try Mark's Magneto Service (860) 537-0376. It is BMT Tim Maikshilo's brother. Haven't seen Tim on here in a while so he must be using his metal detector on the beaches of NZ, Auckland, Tasmania, Kangaroo Island or someplace???

    After brakes, wiring is a wise investment for an older vehicle.

    Short handles on the early cabs and long handles for the +3.
  11. j hancock
    Yes, there is an flat back cab roof and a +3 roof.

    Thinking about the original body line question, is that the +3 cab that you put the early metal dash into for the ex Mary Hitchings R-719? I remember you mentioned that there were a cazzillion spot welds that had to be cut. Do you recall the year of the donor +3 cab?

    Not ever doing any work on an Aussie truck, it may be possible to raise the engine to give some room without removing it? IDK for sure. The right side of the block and chassis is pretty busy. Years ago, there was a factory procedure on Brockway trucks to cut the frame to facilitate the removal of the steering box. Then there were special sections of frame rail bolted over the repair. MOT may not like that procedure today.....

    Double check all the connections and the cooler for leaks. Believe it is closer to 18-22 boost under load.

    On an Aussie Value-liner is the box inside or out?

    What is one more project? Yeah, I know the feeling.

    Nice Pat! A sure sign paving season is done. That first picture looks like it was taken from the driver's seat.... They let you plow the yard....? Oh, that's right. You own the place!
