    Along with a few things I needed for my own W900, I stumbled across a V6 2 stroke Detroit in an old Brigadier..... And yes I paid him for it lol, only because I know @"semi" retired loves them so much, and will enjoy knowing it is saved. :rolleyes::D

    Not sure to be honest. It is 100% complete from what I can tell. Cummins 855 power, 13spd, and 2 speed differentials. Built in September 1975. I can't help but enjoy looking at them and thinking back, some of us started out in these gems..... Remember :).
    And the door for checking oil, instead of lifting the hood.
