Rob Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Very nice truck. Wonder why the builder chose the newer style turn signals and cab marker lamps?Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

HeavyGunner Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Could you imagine tryin' to keep that mirror polish on that trailer?! No wonder he's getting rid of it, probably cant drive any longer since his fingers are worn to nubs from so much polishin'.

yarnall Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Great looking trailer and truck. I guess you won't tell us the reserve. I can buy 48' storage trailers for $1000, but they are not SS. What is the fire truck in the background?Mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/23432-b-model-sleeper-to-be-on-ebay/#findComment-103577 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local Guy Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yes it's mine and yes I'm selling the truck and trailer. The truck is a 1961 B61 with a 673 turbo and a triplex 15 speed. It has 24.5 tires all the way around. Tires and brakes are great. It also has a sliding 5th wheel.

Rob Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 If'n I see that one come up for sale, I may pursue it. There are not many finished trucks I would consider given my limited aptitude and abilities for such things. This one seems to missing the aluminum duct tape over rust holes to hold the Bondo I'm so fond of however........ And yessir, Kudos are deserved to the restorer on that one.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
