Nice truck. I don't know how many B85f"s were delivered with Diesel but the first three went to Bermuda. A guy was on here about two years ago trying to restore one. Mike

Like Paul says, I have a hard time parting with anything, but you have way more trucks than I do and I'm sure you make sure they have found good homes before you part with them. I know your goal is protect them until they ring their next homes. Is this going to Jack Hess? I don't know him but have seen lots of things he has posted. Mike.

I'm surprised no one has bought this truck yet. Have you tried advertising in Double Clutch or Wheels of a Time? You get a Double Clutch add for free if you are a member. It is easy for me to say don't scrap it but still not buy it but please don't scrap it. Mike

It looks like you got a good truck there. The price seemed pretty good for both buyer and seller. Welcome to BMT. How about some pictures of your AB's and AC's. I saw Yarnell P Wastler's AC in a garage down near Coatsville. Is that one of yours? Mike

Oh shit. I don't have any room or any money but it would fit in well with the other 7 Boyertown fire trucks.

It was for sale on here a year or two ago. He posted somewhere else that he had sold it hilt not where it was going. It is an awesome truck. I would have loved to have it but out of my price range. He has a really nice restores Autocar for sale too. Michael.

It looks good. What is the thing on the right side where the batter box or fuel tank would have gone? I would have a hard time parting with it if it were mine. What are your other projects? Mike

I bought a 3 section wood extension ladder off a C125 because the truck was doing to scrap. It has some rotten rungs but it not complete junk. I would sell it if you are interested. It is in Boyertown, PA.

With a bum knee you won't be able to get in and out of a truck that tall. You should give me the guy's number. Seriously, hope you heal quickly and I don't need another truck. Mike.

couldn't have been many of them made.

Other dog, I had a dream last night that you had a cook-out at your place and a tractor parade, but instead of big, juicy steaks you made sushi. The person with the winning tractor was woman who didn't look like any of the women above. Her prize was a dozen duck eggs which she threw around your house. Maybe I'm spending too much time on BMT. Mike

Congratulations and welcome to the site. It is a neat truck. If is for fire. Someone else will have to answer the rest. Will you keep the rescue body on it? Mike.

Neat truck, but I am not up for a project like that. Have you posted it on the Brockway site?

Sorry if you already know this, but since your truck is a B67 it should have had a flush mounted bumper. It had the steps cut in the bumper because it did not stick out and could not be stepped on. It also would not have had the grill guard. I don't think it came with tow hooks, but I am not certain. If it did, I assume they were mounted behind the holes in the bumper. My father's. B66 is off getting worked on so I cannot look at that to compare. The goal of the B66/B67 was a shorter BBC (bumper to back of cab) so extended bumper did not make sense. But it wouldn't surprise me if you could order a B67 with it. You could have your truck built the way you wanted it and you can built your truck the way you want it. Nice truck by the way and good luck with it. Mike.

Steve, I'm looking for the same thing. My water bottle fell through he hole on the way to Macungie and rode on the transmission the rest of the way. Let me know if you figure something out. Michael

I have a visor but not sure it is a Lund. It has a scrape on it from when the truck was laid over on the Schuylkill. I'll try to get a picture of it tomorrow.

I drove to Arizona just after the blizzard of 1995. The snow that was on the roads in Virginia and Tennessee was still there when I drove home three weeks later. When I asked a gas station attendant why the snow was still on the highway she replied with much drama, "We got 3 inches of snow!!" We go 24 inches in PA and the roads where clear before I left my driveway. Glad you made it home safe.

Here is a 707 on eBay. Pretty pricey though. I paid $1200 for one. I thought that was ok. http://m.ebay.com/itm/Mack-Thermodyne-707-Six-Cylinder-Engine-Transmission-/161869635382 There was one in Texas on Craigslist a few months ago but I cannot find it now. I would have bought it if it were closer. Mike.

Where are they now? I'll take them.

That is a buddy's Auction company. I'm supposed to go to an Easter egg hunt with my son that morning but I might need to skip it.

HeavyGunner: You are the closest. You have to buy it. I would love an R model rescue, but now is not the time and it is too far away. It should do fine on a drive home though. Mike

How much for the radiator? Can you post pictures of that? Where are you in PA? Pittsburgh? Mike

That will be great. I agree. Definitely better to go wider than 10' on the doors if you can. I am yes, you will fill whatever size building you build. Keep us posted on the progress.
