1977vega Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Remember last year I did some "fence shopping"? Well what I though was a concave cabbed B61 is actually a 67. I have pics on my phone but I have a tough time posting them up if anyone wants to put them up for me, I'll email them to you. Did these city tractors have turbo motors in them? This one does and it looks complete, other than the tractor is rough Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34677-b67-powertrain/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
theakerstwo Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yes they came with turbo engines . Rob Swallows has one he has in a build project.

Superdog Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 If its factory turbo'd one it would be a B-673 and they only made 176 of them,so it would be a good one to get.I'm guessing there were several that had turbo's added later,also so you'd have to check the numbers.

fifth wheel Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 The BBC dimension is less on a B67 than a B61. I believe a B61 hood length truck with a concave cab is a B65 FW Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34677-b67-powertrain/#findComment-232519 Share on other sites More sharing options...
1977vega Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well I snuck into the yard, tagged as a B67. Popped the hood and there was a turbo on it Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34677-b67-powertrain/#findComment-232520 Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 A complete explanation of the various B cab designs and measurements and corresponding model numbers are in this wiki article.http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?/tutorials/article/11-b-model-cab-data/Many years ago there was a B673 tandem in VT. Pretty interesting combination. It went for auction, where abouts unknown. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

Superdog Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 A B65 was a truck of its own,shorter than a B61,longer than a B67. There were also B61's with the concave cab. Rob Thomas' has one,I have 3,it was an option. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34677-b67-powertrain/#findComment-232540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 the B65 was a whole different animal from a B67 or b61. a B61 with a concave cab was still a B61. a B67 had the shorter aluminum hood with only the one short stainless strip on the side. a B65 had all the same hood chrome as a B61 but it was all crammed in. I believe the hood was 3'' shorter on a B65. Red Star Express ran almost mostly B65's. they had the weird bigger square fuel tank like St Johnsbury truckin ran also. it was bigger around and almost dragged the ground. either way a B67 with a factory turbo is a rare one .

thomastractorsvc Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Early last winter found another B61(1957) that was factory tandem that was a contour cab, in real rough shape. I guess all the "skinny" driver trucks made it to the Midwest.BTW I did not borrow Superdogs camera to take the pictures 2 Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

Joe Ditchkus Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 My 1962 B-67T has a 673P engine with a TRD 670 Duplex on 22" rubber. Most of the B-67'S I ever saw were not speced heavy as they were made for highway use. There was a B-67 tandem dump for sale in my area a few years ago that had a Quadbox it must have been put in by owner as spec sheets I have do not list a quadbox as an option. I saw a b-67 on craigslist today in upstate NY or New England concave cab.Nice picture of tandem B-67 as most I ever saw were single axle. Joe D.
