Rob Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Seen that on ebay.

Superdog Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 Seen that on ebay. Sellers disposition appeared to be a bit "gruff".RobActually,he's a pretty good guy,a very straight shooter,but definately not tolerant of "tire kickers".He bought the truck to fix up and use,but his plans got changed.It's a really straight truck,originally a lowboy tractor with a winch and very heavy duty,ASF double oscilating 5th wheel.The winch was long gone,but I am getting the 5th wheel.My plans are to install the twin turbo ENDT864 I've got in it to make it back into a true R719.

His description was pretty accurate but the delivery surely turned off bidders as it ended with none that I seen. I certainly didn't need another one or the doghouse would be populated once again; and it's cold outside.Hope your plans go through well with it. I remember that engine in the barn.
