Popular Post tilynb61 Posted August 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2013 Thought I would add a couple of pics of my 1964 B755. There are some pics on the site of the truck when I bought it earlier this year under "B755 Whats it worth"I did some rust repair and paint, truck had sat in a field for over ten years so she was a bit rough. Trying to keep as much of the patina as possible while fixing up what needs it. Also cleaned interior up and reupolstered the pax seat.I work for Cummins, truck has a 262 Quadraplex with a 3 speed Aux box. Pulled the PT pump and rebuilt it, set the overhead, changed all fluids. Runs and drives great, Much faster than my 58 B61, will go a lot faster than I would go with the rubber on it now. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tilynb61 Posted August 28, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2013 Thanks for the comments . It would be cool to put an old sleeper on it. I've attached a pic of the interior with the three shifters. Gets lots of looks when people look inside 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryS Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Very unusual and super nice. Love to see the oldies get saved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmerrill0516 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Ok, I've got to ask. I finally understand the quadraplex set up reasonably well. What does the three speed aux buy you in addition to all that? Is there a video demonstrating a heavy pull up through the gears anywhere. I'd have to keep notes to keep track of it I think...Yikes. Very nice truck. Enjoy.ThanksGreg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilynb61 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 The way I use it is mainly for the overdrive in the aux. Get more top speed . Can also split the gears in the main, but bobtailing no need to. The way the truck is geared with aux in 1st, lo lo and first on the quad, truck barely moves. Top end not sure, chickened out at 80 because of the rubber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenlunberg Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Good looking truck! Where will you use this truck? Hope you could always maintain the looks of it. Quote Heavy Hauling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilynb61 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 V8 would be cool. Don't know that. I would be able to keep it running being I'm a Cummins guy. Heard the pumps on the Mack V8s could be troublesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilynb61 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 As for how I use the truck . Primarily for fun. Do pull a friends flatbed to some of the local threshing shows to keep her working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
