Well it really doesn’t look like it’s been beat to death I don’t remember ever seeing a day cab

[tjc transport]

yea,, looks clean. and the long frame with no 5th wheel tells me it was either a flatbed support vehicle, or a drill rig seeing as they are a drilling company

I went by the shift knob lol. I don't see a picture of the trans. Maybe it's an ENDT673C

There's a range valve on it. That little auxilury that's sorta flat with one cylinder pretty much makes it a 9 or 10 back in that era. IDK, looks like a 237 from what I can see.  Truck is pretty clean and straight.

237 as built shouldn't have anything but a 5 or 6

Lots can happen to a truck over 40+ years.  Hell.....look what happened to me over 40 years

[Joseph Cummings]

And I thought I felt old then

I was looking again. It looks like a 2 valve with a chassis mounted charge air cooler.  Might be a 300+ or 350 ???   Some form of Econodyne

[Geoff Weeks]

Its got Trico air wipers, those are getting hard to find parts for.

ESI Plus with 3 filters and the big pan. All the blue, as kinda like a Pedigree

Cool picture.  Is that a knuckle head, what year...?  My oldest Harley is my '99 Sportster.  I have 3 total.

I've got a buddy that is heavy into Flatheads if you are into old and fast. He held the world record at Bonneville for a bunch of years. I think last time was 180 MPH. He's looking much older too. His shop is about half an hour from here next to Bills Custom Cycles

Bill's collection takes up 55,000 SQ feet. For his birthday he had a barrel rider there
