This truck is so cool on so many levels. Super deep radiator with "V12 Bumper", dual Farr breathers (1 for each blower), extended hood AND extended cowl. 3 Quote "If it's all the sime to you...

fuzzy buzzard Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I always run I-81 down to I-70 to I-68 to I-79 to Rt 50 to Parkersburg. That's the shortest route with a tall speed limit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merc is a talented guy. Seems to me as big sorry of converting that glider into a truck. Plenty of trucks down the street but an untouched glider isn't a thing you see every day. Sure job and history are dfferent fields to play a game. H67st - thanks for the pictures. I was lucky observing the trucks in person one year back. This time I have to satisfy with screen images only. Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelman Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Yes, George Sprowl did the red "Baby" B model. I spoke with the folks that brought it to the show, and spoke to Mr. Sprowl just two days ago. Steelman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael. Cut up? or modified? It still is a "fire truck"-sort of😎? or maybe I'm thinking of the wrong truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
