I wanted to put that info on my display - ThanksDon't know if this of any help to you,but when my grandad bought the B-61T that i started in, it still had a copy of the dealer delivery receipt in the glove box,it showed the truck as purchased was $17,464.88 including options and delivery charges. The only options listed were a bostrom "T bar" drivers seat,and a recording tachograph. Ours was number 3 of a fleet order of 20 to amerada hess inc. woodbridge,NJ Oct.7,1963. So i'm sure this was the "fleet" price,but might give you some idea what it was new, yours is real close in looks to the one we had.......Mark Quote Mack Truck literate. Computer illiterate.

jaysm35a2 Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 Thats a good ball park , between 12-17K with options. My build sheet says that mine was deliverd with no mirriors. Guess it was cost saving. But looks like it has some things on the build sheet that cost extra or more.
