Hey Freightrain

Found you a backup rig for your ole B-model.

Yup, saw that come up last week. Look'n kinda used up, but don't most? Could be a lost sister to my truck with the matching paint scheme


Personally I want a long nose KW if I ever get the chance. My lil B gets the job done...but me wants a big motor the next time around.. (and maybe AIR RIDE too )

MMMMMMMMMMMM.......towtruck
One thing I can say....it didn't get used and abused too badly. bumper is still straight and the fenders look pretty straight and rustfree too.

 

[Freightrain]

Yup, that is where mine had lived for 25+ yrs previous to my owning it. Not alot of use, fenders were straight, not butchered up at all. Just a good running ol truck.

Mine too had one of those MONSTER 2 ton push bumpers on it when I brought it home. The owner says...that MAKES a tow truck....a REAL bumper :draw

I like my B....
I just want MORE power..............Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

 

[PackRat]

Here's another one that ought to get both of you sweaty.

if it wasn't for dealing with CA DOT, I'd be bidding on that.
My '54 has a gross of 6900lbs...CA DOT can go shove it on that truck

 

[Freightrain]

Ya, saw that one. I'll take the powerplant! 300 hp....Arh, Arh, Arh....!!!

 

[PackRat]

Here's another one for ya, ole buddy. This one is only about 80 miles from my house.

Click and scroll down to the 2nd from the bottom.

Ya, pretty cool. They list it as a 200+ hp motor. Not by the looks under the hood. No turbo means 170 hp!! Looks like a plain ol 673, just like mine.

Now, the KW below it looks like a pretty cool truck. Big motor, twin stick too!! Just down my alley.

I wonder if Chuck might want that B-61...it would go nicely with the 1979 International S1700 and the 1972 F-800 rollback.

here's another "B" up for sale.....
(poke here) for more pics and a fleabay linky

 

[Freightrain]

Yup, saw that the other day. Looks pretty decent. "Can't drive it cause it needs king pins". Great! That's a very simple job on these trucks(been there). I woulda fix'd that before selling?
