Man I'm a sucker for a W900A Kenworth. We started on one a few years ago, then it got pushed outside.

The son in law and I were talking last week about pulling it back inside and getting started on it. I'll send him these pics. That will fire him up.

What kind of power was the topic last time we talked about it. He mentioned 3408 but I don't have any experience with them.

Dang it!
I new the Brooks show was coming up and yet I still missed it.
Thanks for posting all the pics. Was the chopped and lowered purple bluish Kenworth there? IIRC its a 1950's era conventional. The hood has been welded up and now tilts forward. Its only a 2 axle with a flatbed on back. I used to see it alot down here in So. OR. If you have any pics, I would love to see it again.

ATHS Bay State Chapter show at Worcester Sand and Gravel today. Unfortunately didn't get any pictures of the trucks but there was about 200+/-. Lots of Macks B's R's etc, cab-over Freighliners, Internationals etc... great weather and turnout.

Brought the '61 GMC and a couple tractors. And there was a cool (70's?) Autocar heavy hauler.
