I think it has an EN464 in it. i agree with Vlad. It would be great if you left the truck intact. There are very few B model mixers in existence. It would be a shame to take this one apart. There are dozens of B61 tractors for sale. Sell this and buy one of them or keep this and buy another. Your truck, but it would be a real shame to take it apart. Mike. My 63 B46S has a EN402,it was originally a mixer chassis. They must have been available with different engines Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/68782-my-first-b-model-1965-b462/page/2/#findComment-483347 Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleclutchinweasel Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 As nice as this one is, it SHOULD be worth a pretty penny. Lots of logic to the school of thought of selling it for high bucks and using that money to buy a tractor closer to what you want. But, it MAY be difficult to find one as nice as what you have. So... But, like the man said, it is YOUR truck. Do what makes you the happiest in the long run. Quote "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."

Maddog13407 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 (edited) modern (after 1963 ) power for a B42 was a en438 overhead valve which i believe this had. the model then became the B422 in a truck/tractor. the en464 was available in the heavier chassis , B60 and B62. the 'baby quad' wouldnt bolt up to a en464. i agree, leave this one alone and find a more suitable candidate.

I was suggesting you had so many trucks you can't get them all inside! I had a friend once who bought a metal building that used to be a machine shop. He finished one corner (2-3 rooms) and left the rest of it as a shop. I always thought that was the ultimate dwelling. I suggested this to my wife...but she did not share my enthusiasm for the idea. I'd love to see more pics of that one in your avatar. Looks nice from what I can see there.

doubleclutchinweasel Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Well, looks like the links won't open from here. Oh well, we tried. By the way, I have had the best luck here pasting photos directly, not using the "choose files" function. This one was copied and pasted. 1 Quote "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."

Save your pictures there and they give links to use to paste a picture any place you want. You can use the "add files" in the bottom of your post and download the picture directly to the post. Not sure if there is still a limit on how many pictures you can download to BMT? I know that was an issue before. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

By the way, I could not get the postimage thumbnail or hotlink kind of things to work here. But, I noticed that the "link" worked fine.

Brocky Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I use Postimage also and use the "direct link" option to post a picture on here. When Just Old Trucks picture program was down I had to use the "thumbnail for forums" option, But on BMT all it gives you is a lot of words and no picture.

Glad it wasn't just me! The "link" option won't put the picture here, just the link, and that MIGHT work for Mike if he can't use the other options.
