JTFormula Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Need to hear the beast run now and take us for a ride. Did you really say 650 feet of cable? Did you check length or that's what you think it has? Seems like a lot on that spool.

Maddog13407 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 we have an air starter on one of our trucks in the yard. sweet as hell. need to find a B model air tank for it tho as this one is smashed bad and leaks. weird truck, came from Mass, i remember it in the junkyard years ago . they took it as probably cause it broke down, single axle 673 with 9 speed overgear, someone swapped a gas rear in it so it must have been REALLY fast back in the day. has the bar with the rod going to the rear for the E brake. also must have gotten in an accident one time and someone put a new rail on pass side. it has NO vin number stamped. wasnt a prob til someone bought the cab and sheetmetal along with the door tag to make a rat rod out of and we bought the drivetrain for $250 and put it together with spare parts we had. need an air tank someday and maybe a vin tag for a 65 BLT so we can register it haha. sorry to hijack the thread. lets hear that thing run with those flappers on it !

Superdog Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 nothing more fun to have than a wrecker,especially a B model wrecker.I don't know what you gave for that truck,but if those are all high test wrecker chain,you've got a small fortune in those and the snatch blocks.

Bigdogtrucker Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Nice truck,what are the plans for it? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29116-b61-wrecker-video/#findComment-154482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumperAndSon Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 Thanks guys! The plan for this truck is to leave it 100% original and get it tuned up for roadworthyness. We're getting the new brake cylinders and our wiring guy is checking out the spagehtti under the dashboard. It should be all ready to go for Macungie 2013. And I will get a video of it running and driving as soon as we get it out on the road Ben 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29116-b61-wrecker-video/#findComment-154483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
