j hancock Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'm not sure if the engine is an EN401 or 402. It has a couple of stuck valves and the previous owner pulled the head. Where is a good source for a head gasket?Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkMaybe these folks could help if you get in a bind.http://www.olsonsgaskets.com Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

flynlow8740 Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 How do most of you have insurance on your trucks? I'm sure no one wants to pay commercial rates for a hobby truck. Do you have them insured as RV's or farm vehicles?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34645-looking-to-buy-b-42/page/2/#findComment-234407 Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarnall Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Here is a link to a previous discussion about insurance. If you search "antique insurance" you will find others.

Joe Ditchkus Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I have AntiqueTrucks insured with J.C.Taylor and Gulfway is from Bayonette Point,Florida. Gulfway will insure a trailer you could pull with your old truck no commercial work with either company. You can haul your own antiques with Gulfway. J.C.Taylor does not allow trailers as far as I know.Joe D.

flynlow8740 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Well, the truck was delivered to my house today. I guess it's time to go to work on it. My wife is gracious enough to let it sit in the front yard for right now. Ha ha. Here are a few pics.

flynlow8740 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 I can only find a couple of dents and some very minor rust. I think it's a clean project truck. Were all of these trucks red from the factory?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34645-looking-to-buy-b-42/page/2/#findComment-234695 Share on other sites More sharing options...
