umodelnut Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I like the green B753, 94K is way too much for that one B61. I dont care what anybody says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
41180 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 not sure why you would do a beautiful restoration job and then sell it. and 94000 dollars is a just a bit to high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Ok, question of the day. The steering column in the B753, it has the unique column(I suppose for a concave cab) even though it has std cab. What would it take to convert one? I have a column like that, wondered if I could cut/weld the shaft and retrofit it into my truck? Make some more room.Or, is it the fact the cab is forward and this moves the column up.

j hancock Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Hi Larry,I have casually looked at the steering column differences and never came to a complete conclusion.On my B75 with L cab , it has a "bent" column. On a friend's B75 with a standard cab, he has a bent column. On several B755 L cab with V8 engines that I have looked at, the column is straight. I haven't been able to check a V8 B755 with standard cab to see if it is also straight.Soooo....I don't know. Did the steering box stays the same between the two styles of column? Did they have to rotate sightly the bolt holes in the frame to line the shaft up?Probably something could be fabricated to suit your needs. Maybe try to make a template with cardboard or wire to see if the "bend" is going to gain enough to make it worth while for you.I am not aware of any B753 with a concave cab, pretty sure all were straight back cabs. The B75 was the stretched out setup with longer hood and filler panels.Jim Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
57 bcr Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I have seen a B-61 with an R model column (and P/S box) in it. Guess it works out pretty well for him.

Freightrain Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Yup, seen a R model conversion before. Just wondered if the steering box was mounted the same, as it looks like the angle is different, thus they needed the bend to adjust for it? Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

other dog Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 not sure why you would do a beautiful restoration job and then sell it. and 94000 dollars is a just a bit to high maybe to cover the very expensive brake drum paint- probably used Krylon instead of the dollar store paint, the cheap paint would be gone in no time if it were actually driven much.

mackdaddy Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I have wondered about the straight column in a few L cab B755's out there but the 3L cab B755's I have are with the bent column. The B cab in the 70 series also have the recessed floors in them. They were advertised as the Great Western series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tippi98custom Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I have a question about the floor in the b75, can i take a b 61 cab and just remove the floor and make new, recessed, floor pannels for the b61 cab so that it matches my b75 cab? or are the dimensions of the height and build of the cabs completely different?
