Just curious if anyone here has restored an old Tractor. Or currently owns a classic. Maybe an old Pete, but not like a 379, maybe an older oddball.
Maybe a K100 or even a W900A? Mack R or an old Autocar? Gmc General? Maybe even a Diamond Rio. Better yet, is anyone here currently running a classic?
I'd love to see some pics if y'all have the time!
Has anyone here restored an old Tractor?

You might like this ongoing thread started by truckdad. Lots of cool iron here, While mechanical parts are always around, finding certain parts for old trucks can be challenging. Hoods, body parts, some interior stuff ( try finding an original round dash water temp gauge for a 359), but it's a lot of fun, does the same thing as a modern truck, and you can thumb your nose at all the new reg's. I had an '82 Western Star, a '72 Pete 359( in avatar) and a '85 Pete 359 day cab. I'm retired, but wouldn't drive anything but an old truck today.
