Howdy all!

Up for sale is 'Mater. With gracious help from members here we have identified this wonderful dump truck as a 1964 B-61 SX. It has a tandem axle and is a diesel. The "S" indicates the tandem axle and "X" indicates the extreme load capacity. The frame is in excellent condition as is the ceiling in the cab. There's a 2' oak piece in the frame that is also in excellent condition.

Mater runs beautifully, he fires right up and is ready for a new home. I bought him as a work/yard truck and don't envision any more projects with him. Please, please do not buy him for scrap!

This is not an 'on-road' truck at the moment but is worth restoring if that's your intended goal. (and I kind of hope it is). The serial number is 48339, I do not have a title. The body is in generally good shape, I believe someone started restoring him before I picked him up. I've had fluids changed and the piston rebuilt by a local heavy equipment mechanic but the piston does still leak. The drivers seat is in terrible condition (I use a sheet so the coils don't poke my butt!)

Selling for $3,000.00. We are located in Chesterfield, Massachusetts. You can reach me at 413-six95-nine667. My name is Barb.

Sorry for the re-post; the original buyer fell through. We'd like to move 'Mater before the snow really starts flying.
