  1. Frankly, I don’t think it’s worth the effort to do all that for a very little gain, but it’s your decision. You can’t really do much more than you already did to get at everything. But then again, if you do not pull it apart, you will be laying awake Knight thinking about it or at least I would be….. As far as you’re going with that truck, why not just go for it I know an entire paragraph and I pretty much said nothing to help ha ha good luck bud. Great progress. Let’s keep it up.
  2. I would get in touch with Peoplenet ELD and ask them
  3. You know I can’t say for sure but I don’t see why not I may be wrong. i’m thinking all you really need is an electric speedometer for the ELD to read. Good luck
  4. I think I was pretty much gonna add the same thing by the time you get done investing, lots of time and money to get these things where you want them it’s a lot easier just to buy something a little newer and yes, R model is a pretty perfect choice you could find something ready to work a lot of times 20 to 30,000 ready to go and accomplish what you need without running around the world looking for parts that are a lot of times way over priced and add shipping to that. Good luck whatever you choose…. Bob
  5. I do remember that was a hell of an engine back on the day was a pulling SOB …: bob
  6. Sure sounds like somebody got a hell of a deal. They’re probably not telling us the engine is stuck ha ha

  9. Man, you said it!!!!!!!!!
  10. No, I do not remember the ad
  11. OK, that’s funny. Shit I didn’t even really notice that I was wondering what they were all doing crawling around on the ground.
  12. same here TJ i believe they can do some real damage,,,but in 49 years of truck driving ive only seen them fly around the wheel opening and then pieces of cap come out the back,,,alotta times tear off the mudflap and sometimes the bracket ,bob
  13. thers a picture of it on vlads new cruiseliner tread...bob

  17. Hell, yeah that’s some cool stuff. I thought you were just barely starting out looking for your first one.Bob
  18. No, they do not but things gorgeous. That was the next thing I was gonna say every time you do come across one seems it’s beat the hell. Bob
  19. same here, bud thanks for all your input. It worked for me too. Nothing else embarrassing. This thing has been sitting here. So long but then again, none of us are 20 years old well one of us is now but we all have to squeeze these things in between everything else. When we’re very young, we really don’t have anything to do but work and play with your car. You are still an amazing inspiration for all of us thank you…. Bob
  20. hey bud, welcome aboard pick your poison ha ha you’re looking at a lot of work no matter what you decide
  21. well thier all beefy trucks,,,,strait B models,are alot easier to find versus B75 or 73 L cab or an LTL good luck,,,bob
  22. If you have not moved the engine, be sure to pull out all the spark plugs and shoot a bunch of mystery oil into the cylinders before you do anything and leave it. Sit for a week or so I believe ignition parts are still available from what I hear, good luck.
  23. We all hate to see any of them sitting buried in trees like that. I’m sure there is at least a lot of parts on that thing somebody could use. but by now the floors are probably all done. Who knows
  24. My god that cab looks like it doesn’t need anything but primer and paint that’s 90% of your issues. Usually you got it whooped bud. A lot of us pretty much have to rebuild the bottom of any cab And doors wow
  25. Right on man that’s a great deal and that truck never gets tiring. Thank you so much for the photo…/ bob
