Where is everyone #5

85 359 standard hood

 

Story of my life!

 

@wore out what is needed to bring MAMMA back up to par?

 

Both frame rails (bent in 4 places different ways.) Hood radiator, CAC, right front sleeper corner, both step boxes, and steer axle, would be a good place to start. A friend of mine that has built wrecks for years says it would be best to take every huck bolt in it out then huck it back together. There is some twist in the cab but no bends or creases if that makes sense.

 

I was wondering after I remembered Ricky having this cab and matching standard hood.

 

Look into that if you would, I have my rails worked out but that's bout it so far

 

Hey, russ. Need to pick yer brain, trying to figure out this miss I have in my engine. Only does it after sitting overnight. Start it up and it will miss till warm. Did injector cutout test with et and also a manual cutout. Can't figure which one. Going to try a manual in the morning when it is cold. My jake started sounding different bout same time. The only thing I can figure is a sticky injector or a jake slave piston sticking or worse case a headgasket starting to fail. I can see blue smoke when it misses and smell raw fuel. Going to do an overhead after I do the test. If I can figure out which injector it is I'm going to switch it with another hole to see if it follows. Not pushing any coolant.

Not a problem neighbor, I have a 6V92T still setting there as well as a same as new set of 8-25:20 tires for my 1961 B160. I ask him about good while ago and he said.... Jim people don't build trucks like they use to, that's the only reason it's setting there. He had the matching 36" sleeper as well but finally just let it go. But I will holler at him, I'll be home next couple days anyway.

 

I got a couple ol Detroits you ought a pick up if you ever down my way. One is a 6v-71 in an old kenworth the other is a running 8v-92 in a little international. I can't see me ever using them. Rather see em used as just rot to scrap
