Maddog13407 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 nah, gots a few tandems in the pasture to but im not about to cut someone on parts. i was second in line if you didnt want them tho. rudy is a good guy to deal with. the triplex is a double overdrive 13 speed and with those 4.17 gears that old B must have flew enough to scare you.

Freightrain Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 That black wrecker is Superdogs(Mike Harbison). It's got a shiny 290 in it and it's geared really, really fast.My truck is geared for about 85, and I've had it north of 75 a couple times. The speedo drops down (due to OD in brownie), so I don't know the actual speed. I ran outta road(flat ground) so I couldn't stretch it any further. She's smooth as glass at the speed.........just ahum'm along. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................
