Superdog Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 A guy stopped by the house this afternoon,said he had an old B model dump that belonged to his dad,that he wanted rid of. I had sold parts to his dad a few years back,but had never seen the truck. We went to give it a look over and got it bought. Pretty solid old single axle B61T, 673 with a Duplex,dump bed was pretty straight. fenders and grille a little beat,an the whole thing was painted yellow several years ago,inside and out, chrome, wheels, bed , everything. It was parked in a dark building,so no pics yet. He was gonna drag it out and get it started for me to pick up tomorrow.

Popular Post Superdog Posted September 10, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 10, 2013 Grille,shutters and fenders have some character,interior needs a lot of loving,LR wheel seal leaking bad,and tires ain't that great,but it's been a long,long time since I bought a running B61 so reasonable. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32691-in-the-dump-truck-business/#findComment-205068 Share on other sites More sharing options...
