Popular Post j hancock Posted January 21, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2020 1966 was the last year for the B models. Sort of fun to think you could have an "old" 1964 U model or a 1965 R model parked next to a new B! 3 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

It has the short hood and fender assembly with a flat back cab. A B-53 uses the same sheet metal as a B-61 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.
