At least you sport a good lookin' ride there.

I'll bet that thing is a pain to wash. We have somebody come in on weekends and wash trucks and equipment, so it's on my mind.

That's a cool idea, 2 birds with 1 stone.

abebummy26 · 06-02-2014, 12:29 PM

It is I wouldn't mind having it since it has budd wheels and that 13 speed.

Dale99 · 06-17-2014, 04:06 PM

Spotted this one this weekend at a yearly swapmeet. Very clean!

C10 - C90 Bill · 06-17-2014, 04:18 PM

Nice looking truck.

Bill

I drove almost exclusively t 600s at truck driving school. I could run circles around the newer freight-shakers. One I drove had a super 10 and a Detroit the other had a 13 and a n14 cummins man I loved that cummins. I liked that 13 speed a lot better than than sloppy old super 10

abebummy26 · 06-24-2014, 05:29 PM

I like the needle nose kenworths a lot and the b model Mack's

1940 White heavy duty truck converted into a pickup. This thing is pretty sweet. The entire bed and rear fenders were fabricated.

**special-K** · 07-15-2014, 08:20 AM

I love that thing! I ran a cross it and saved a picture 10 years ago when I first started checking out the internet. I wonder what's up with it today. Do you know how old that picture is? I guess this is more of a heavy hauler downsized to a 4-wheeler...in more ways than one! I see lots of fabricated pickup boxes on the single rears at the old truck shows. I sold a pair of LWB Stepside bedsides to a guy with a Mack B who had a pickup job in mind

studda · 07-15-2014, 06:02 PM

I don't know what its story is today or how old that picture is. Here is a link from 2000 with some information on it though: http://www.fourwheeler.com/project-v...0-white-truck/

**special-K** · 07-16-2014, 12:25 AM

I got my picture later than 2000. I see it has more mirrors added since the article.

My 9' stepside box sides are fabricated from 12 guage sheet plus 2x4" box tubing for the top rail . For the floor, I have a 108" trailer door blank, etched stainles clad. In the past, I always kept the bed covered with mud flaps, as no tellin' what I'd haul.With the stainless, I'll have to show it off !

**special-K** · 07-31-2014, 09:34 AM

I want to coach you through the picture copying process. I know I'll be glad I did. We're missing out here

63 & 64 Bowties · 09-21-2014, 06:12 PM

Can't remember if I posted this here or not. I didn't want to go back through 500+ posts.
This was a towing company I worked for back in the early 80's. We called this truck the Centipede.
In it's day it was the 3rd largest towing company in the US.

The long-nose Peterbilt on the left here was my assigned truck....

C10 - C90 Bill · 09-21-2014, 07:40 PM

Nice looking fleet.

Bill

**special-K** · 02-07-2015, 07:48 AM

I dug these pictures up from way back in my Photobucket. This truck was parked, unattended, just off I-70. Never thought about it till now, but this is the exit just beyond the weigh station. I wonder if they pulled him and escorted him there because it wouldn't make the turn back to the lot. Anyway, here are some pictures:

I'll bet your correct, Tim. I've never pulled and RGN with anywhere near that many axles, but, you don't just go anywhere with one.
