Popular Post thomastractorsvc Posted May 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2014 This is the new girl to the Pack, I bought her back in January and got her home yesterday around 8:00 a.m. She has not run since 1998, but by the end of the day she was back to life. 1970 W925, with 330K has Pete rears and air ride, Cummings 250 built out to 385 with added on turbo, was originally used to haul produce back and forth form Nebraska to KC. Bought by a Farmer in 1986 as a trade in and used to haul grain and a low boy. New brakes, clutch and rebuild within that last 8000 miles. Changed the fuel filter, added oil, topped of the radiator and checked it over real good, new battery's and cables, key switch and chased some wires and aired ups some tires. She is going to need some airlines, the fuel cross over line replaced as it is broken (had to pull the sending unit out of the left tank to add fuel as it does not have a filler just the vent in its place) before do to much yard driving and a couple tires, one is separated and ones leaks out the side wall. The are 11x 24.5 buds steel on back and aluminum in front. 10 Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

thomastractorsvc Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 No, besides there is guy here in town that owns a "Snowman Tribute Truck" it was on Fast and Loud early this year. I have not decided on any colors yet, my son thinks just leave it as is. I guess it depends on how much money it will take to make road worthy.

thomastractorsvc Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Changed the ignition switch out again, in the video I thought my son was having a hard time with the key but turned out that the switch had a dead spot in it. Just got some parts in the UPS and FedEx, new air leaf bushings and air bags, need to pick up some flat metal and make some air bag reinforcement mounts maybe get that done before the weekend. I bought a new old style 13 speed shifter, need to get that hooked up to. Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

Gmerrill0516 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Sounds darn good for sitting all that time. The little guy will ALWAYS remember starting that truck on that day. Good memories there.On another note, is that a nest of red squires attached to your chin or one hell of a goatee? Scared me for a minute. Sorry...couldn't resist.
