I think it's the same old cab that gave these trucks their bold new look

Impressive looking Dodge.

Probably Detroit powered.

Too bad they didn't make more of them.

Forgot if I ever posted this here, I don't think I did.... There's one of those Big Horns that ends up at shows around here. This was at the Lancaster Truck Show in Bolton MA.

Re: Trucks Are Beautiful

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.
