1984 International 9670

Used to drive one like that when I started out. It can be an adventure lol.

 

You got that right nightgunner....

 

Well, I guess the OP sold his friends truck....

Here is my 1984 International CO9670 Not for sale.... I hope the OP doesn't mind me taking over this thread but, it just made sense. I am hoping this can be used to inform, educate and help me and others in finding parts.

 

Finding parts for this ole boy isn't easy but, has been ok. Have to do some searching and wait a couple days for parts sometimes but, haven't run into a problem actually finding parts, so far. Right now I need an exhaust turbo pipe, air filter and alternator. I have found the pipe and filter but may have to wait a couple business days to get them. The alternator I will be taking off today and than hopefully tomorrow I can get a replacement tomorrow at Freightliner....

 

Problem as I see it for OTR would be liveabilty. As far as making money fule mpg.

 

I just like old iron. Very dependable, has a lil character, and no emissions lol

 

Not to mention, if your able, you can work on old iron yourself. Very easy to fix and get back on the road and easy to diagnose the problem. Not so cheap though and parts can be difficult to find sometimes, or at least get in a hurry.

 

Considering it's almost a 4 year old post...... I doubt he'll mind

 

Yeah I can get a crate BC Cummins in Raleigh for about 10k. Do the work in my backyard. 10k won't even touch a modern inframe

 

Dang nice rig my friend...
