tkobes43 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 Well guys, Ive been emailing the guy back and forth. Im really thinking about this one. It needs quite a bit of work. But i get a Complete B61 integral sleeper in pieces, and a Complete b61 but cut behind the cab. Still had engine and trans. We came up with a price that i think isn't terrible. Cheaper then on CL. Is there anyone around that area that can take a peek at it for me? Im willing to pay for your fuel there and back and to take a few more pics of the truck and parts truck. Let me knowTom Quote "Nothing Breaks Wind Like A Bulldog" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/26464-damn-i-want-it/#findComment-130776 Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 There are some that would pay that price just for those long, straight, and unmolested frame rails. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/26464-damn-i-want-it/#findComment-132081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 the power steering box is original, its a Shephard, the pump is some aftermarket add on. that truck would have had the pump mounted to the back of the generator. the later ones they mounted to the back of the air compressor with a pulley and ran the hoses under the oil pan with brackets. i have a complete RH Shephard power steering set up i took out of my B613 that has that same box. uses the standard size steering wheel but with the smaller 1'' center hole to.

Maddog13407 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 looks like some good parts there. hows the sheetmetal and the other truck? someone must have changed the radiator in that truck as is has the later style big radiator. the one with the angled top. it goes all the way to the top of the horsecollar and all the way to the bottom and has a recess to go around the horsecollar bolts. usually this style radiator was only used on later trucks with a 711 or 673 turbo.
