I looked at those screws and kinda knew that was gonna happen before it even touched them.

doubleclutchinweasel Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Not so much for the veterans, but hopefully helpful for some of the newer members… The 607 implies what the standard engine was…maybe the n/a END-673P. But, as shown in those brochures, there were optional engines available. Could have been a couple of different engines factory-installed. The “S” shows that it was originally a “six wheel” (tandem) truck The lack of a “T” says it was not originally built as a tractor, but rather as a straight truck. Pretty common on DMs, since the primary market was “Dumper and Mixer”. 1 Quote "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."

mowerman Posted August 18, 2023 Author Share Posted August 18, 2023 OK thanks for that.

You can see examples of that on the brochures I posted. Most of those 673's had a HP rating on a tag somewhere on the engine. Can't remember if it is on the engine or the pump, though. I'm betting 211 HP, as I think that was the rating on the ones with no other letters after the engine model number. Quote "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."

mrsmackpaul Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Do these bolts go thru with nuts on the other side ? Or was this different in the U.S. ?

Hes lucky they didnt twist out of the hood causing holes..

DavCut Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Glad to hear that you had a great trip @mowerman! I managed to make a brief visit to the museum back in 2021, but haven’t made it back yet. Someday I hope to make it up for the show weekend. Hope that you’ve found smooth roads back a work. 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/12/#findComment-537331 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing Joey maybe after I get the part off I can spray the hell out of the studs and keep tapping them around. I might be able to save them just take my time you know what I mean also so I thought the same thing about replacing with pop rivets I have a gun I don’t think I’ve used it in 40 years Sears and roebucks craftsman when they were going strong and we bought everything from them bought it around 1973 now I’m starting to wonder if I know where it is.

mowerman Posted August 19, 2023 Author Share Posted August 19, 2023 I haven’t been out there. I just barely woke up drinking coffee. I was even thinking, maybe the screws were mainly rusted to the catch piece is the reason they all broke Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/12/#findComment-537364 Share on other sites More sharing options...
