  1. I think I could honestly say I have never seen a DM 800 with a sleeper excellent looking model. Thanks for sharing… bob
  2. No, I doubt it. I don’t think anything is anywhere near that high gear is all looked to be in pretty good shape. Frankly, I think you could just pull it all apart and clean everything up. Good luck.
  3. And yes, Tom, I like the booty
  4. I have only done one in frame I was living in the San Fernando Valley at the time and my driveway. It was 106° every day I was working on it and yes I can remember pulling automatic transmission out of a 55 Chevy wagon when I was just a teenager, it was only 17° out, ha ha now there is some talent. I wouldn’t do it now at 67.
  5. .Sorry I missed this sometimes I don’t get on here too much during the week. I wound up with another one . tractor bid situation. they did fix the transmission on the other one but now somebody else is driving it, so what I have now is absolutely fabulous I really like it and thanks for asking. This should be the last truck . I’m only going to the end of September.bob
  6. Probably doesn’t answer(YOUR) question , but I thought I’d throw this out there my Peterbilt with triple trailers flat ground it gets between six and seven pull a hill it goes right down to 2.6 ha ha at least that’s what the dashboard says if you’re looking for an average on the job, it’s usually between five and six… like these guys said, and all the depends on what you’re doing with it pretty much.

  7. Hell man I would jump on that good luck bob
  8. Noticed that a while back the wheels look too small for that heavy unit… bob
  9. Yes, that’s the way it works. Sometimes it was a hell of a deal for that price. especially if he is going to use it on site I’ll never have to do anything to it, except maybe change the oil…bob
  10. Doesn’t even look like it needs anything. Thanks for that…. Bob
  11. Excellent, thanks for that.. bob
  12. That sucks sorry paul
  13. It’s a 66 and the little muffler is going to go underneath
  14. Thanks for that
  15. Yes, I did not want it to be loud but the stock style underneath Muffler was a lot more expensive and it looked like it was more of a pain in the ass to set it up in there
  16. I’m sure Mike would have all the answers, but we hardly hear from him
  17. OK four days off I hardly did anything weather wasn’t so great around here. I finally went out there today and put the two big ones on then I got to the point where I was gonna have to get a little dirtier so I pulled the plug. Hopefully I can get her all done Saturday morning I’ll certainly do my damnedest
  18. Well, I’m sure we all remember back in the day. They were very loud. It was really hard to talk back-and-forth and the older iron I remember riding with my pop and the U models 68, 6970 they were very loud inside.
  19. I was unable to open these.. bob
  20. But for sure to me, it looks like that truck was stored indoors for quite a while And yes, for 8000 it would have to be in good running condition.
  21. Yes, I probably mentioned around here. Western star is selling a lot of them.
  22. I have heard of aftermarket overhaul parts, but haven’t heard anything solid on anything. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were the same overall parts but no I do not know. Fortunately, my engine runs well with great oil pressure and hopefully I don’t have to put anything in it that is impossible to find. I’ve had four days off and done almost nothing the entire time yesterday I didn’t even get dressed.
  23. It was probably the same deal one lane each direction. Cool story thanks for that. My mom only row with my pup. Once old Brockway around 1955. She said she did not care for it at all. It was too loud and very bouncy. Ha ha.. bob
  24. Well, your guess is good as mine as far as I remember E6 is a 676 Oh sure Joey would know good luck… bob
