cfesting Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I've been looking at this CL posting...http://hickory.craigslist.org/hvo/4065113266.htmlIs that really a maxidyne, or a typo?I'd rather have a six wheeler instead of three axles, though. Don't know if I want to get involved with swapping a tandem out with a single axle. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33004-b61-that-has-my-interest/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigdogtrucker Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 looks like a 711 to me.Didn't some 673P's have this style intake? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33004-b61-that-has-my-interest/#findComment-209641 Share on other sites More sharing options...
countryboy5487 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Ya id say 711 too by looking at that water neck. And i agree wit ya ditch the body keep the wet line and get a fifth wheel and have a nice set up tractor. Hey if you change your mind on it id like to take a shot at grabbing it!!!

Maddog13407 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 still looks like a 711 to me, could be a 673P but those weren't as plentiful as 711's. that truck is worth 3500 in scrap and parts actually. depends where the frame is cracked. youll have you work cut out for you makin a tandem double frame a single axle. lots of rivets to cut out of the trunion. either way its still not a Maxidyne Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33004-b61-that-has-my-interest/#findComment-209654 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freightrain Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Not bad looking for the money. Wonder about the motor. Looks kinda like my 673p as it does not have oil cooler either. Water neck is odd though. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

Maddog13407 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 it has an oil cooler Larry, has the bigger barrel air cleaner I have seen on 711's to but could be a 673p. hard to tell without the number.

cfesting Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 Please do! I'm really not looking for a tandem, so I think I'll let this one go by... It does look like a decent value on paper, though.
