    Well since cabovers came up. I need your guys help. I just heard a rumor my Pop's 1974 K100 was still in the KY. It left Ohio in the early 90's. When it went it still had the same paint job I'm about to post. It was ruff and still would be. The NTA420 had be swapped with a 350BC.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    While we are at it. Looking for a 1984 FLC. I have zero idea were this truck went to. Was traded in at Midway truck center Monroville Ohio in about 1988.

    It don’t matter what condition one is in, every time I see a Marmon it turns my head.

    "Look, Joe, there goes one of them "MORMAN" trucks",,,15 years ago, I drove a Marmon just like that for a friend. It was blue, a tired horse, but still pretty cool. I hauled 2 loads with it. One, a load of french fries from Plover , Wis. to Dayton, Ohio, came back to Wis. empty. 2nd, a load of cheese from Marshfield, Wis. to somewhere in PA. When he said, he may have a backhaul out of NYC, I said, see ya', and came home and that was it. Got a lot of comments on the green stamp, even PUCO in Ohio took notice, but I think it was the straight pipes( PITA)with no heat guard is what they were looking at.:eek:

    I used to work on a guys Silver Sterling? I think it was called? Teal and polished up with a big bunk. Not a ford guy. But it was a hot cat and a 18 speed. Surprised the heck out of a bunch of people. He is long gone. But the man took care of his ride. I mean it, yours looks good Sir.
