This just popped up on local CL...
Does anyone know what it is? Thinking it would make a fun project! |
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
Id say by the look of that tow bar up front that its lived some of its life as a military dump truck

Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
I can't answer your question but I know exactly how you feel.... I just ended up with my first vintage truck for exactly the same reason.

Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
Seller said it was from a government agency sale in the ad. I reached out to him, but have not heard back yet.

It's a '70 or a little newer 7500 Model with All-Wheel Drive and a GVW of 34,000.
Would love to know what it has for an Engine and Trans. BTW, you want it because it's "Cool". |
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?

Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
I love how they had to add a step to get up to the running boards!

VIN says V6, too. Looks like a Coleman conversion. Let me know what happens with this. If you don't buy it let me have a crack at it. I could use that up on the farm. I tried to find it and gave up. Could you post a link?
The axle has to be were it is to work with the overall original drivetrain location, since it's an add-on. |

Wow! Talk about a beauty, but a total BEAST!!!

Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
It is posted on Altoona, PA Craigslist...
I've emailed the seller, but have not heard back. Will try again. http://altoona.craigslist.org/cto/5524942344.html |
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?

Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
7500 with a V-6, Coleman 4X4 conversion. Coleman used those large front hubs with de-mountable rims.

Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
Id bet it is the 478 v6 gas what a great engine platform. no mileage all torque
|
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
I really hope the seller contacts one of you interested members, it would be a shame for this truck to get sidelined to the scraper.
|
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
I've sent 2 emails and have not heard back. I am going to drive to the town and try and find it tomorrow...
|
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
Good idea, there's a street address posted too. I wish you luck
|
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
It's too easy to lose on a truck for stupid reasons
|
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
Sub'd, I'd like to see what happens here also. Cool truck.
|
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
Did a drive by... Did not see truck. Still have not heard back from seller.

In comparison, my '66 305 V-6 would get 15 1/2 Hi-way, after a super tune. I also had a straight-thru muffler on it to help. My 478 had Straight-Thru Duals, lol. |
Re: What is it, and why do I want to but it!?
Did anybody find out anything on this truck?
