That T cab is a great picture. Guys would kill for that trailer now, too. How about the modern apartments with wind units?

Cool Re: GM Semis
Ugh this Brigadier really loves to tease me lol. Parts must me a lil harder to get for these old girls. She's been parked and moved around the repair shops lot for at least the past month. The more a see it, the more I want one, even if I gotta buy one with a cat or cummins just to do a 6v92 engine sawp.

Willing to wager that's an ex-Yellow Freight Brig. with an L10 Cummins. Good little tractor.

I'd like to get a tractor like that and keep it useful for an assortment of trailers.

I found this picture the other day

Re: GM Semis
Cool picture, but I would not have liked the "Hydramatic" transmissions.

Wonder how they held up through the years?

Some tow truck, can't tell if it's a Marmon-Herrington or Coleman 4X4 conversion. Looks like it has a 'diesel' emblem, probably has a 4-71 in it.

Re: GM Semis
I always known them to have 6V-53's for Diesels.

Is the 6V-71 correct?

Yes, a few had 6V-71's. PMT's tandem auto haulers had 6V-71's.
Most did have 6V-53's though.
