Where is everyone #5

Just like J Ray I been busy doing busy stuff . Loaded a big 9K coil this evening to kick off in the AM in Brookfield, OH, run to other side of the building and reload coming right back with scrap material. Gotta love doing what ya love!

 

@wore out , had a long discussion with my bride this evening. Anymore I have to give a lot of thought to things, if I sleep on it a few days and the interest is still there... then I know it's right. Gonna try to get my ducks lined up in the next week or so, if all lines out the way I feel it's going to I may try to catch up with ya on the way back through from Arizona, take a moment to say howdy and eyeball your new ride! Be safe out there.

 

You made the deal?

 

Very nice truck. Double Eagle bunk?

 

Working on it now actually.

 

Yes Sir, 70" mounted on a 1984 359 extended hood. Truck came factory as a day cab with a Cat A model backed by a 5x4 twin sticks. Some where along the way it was switched to a Big Cam with a 6x4 which the owner now removed, and will replace with a newer 10 speed. He's leaving the auxiliary mounts in the truck, and the jackshaft will be included on the sale. Owner is another @wore out lol.... loves 359's and his everyday truck is total eye candy with twin sticks and Cat power. Even has an older A model KW with a 8V71 and twin sticks for play. Owner did the history and seems this truck was bought and sent straight to Diuble Eagle to get the sleeper installed, told me it had more than 1 paint code still in the glove box if memory is correct, indicating it had stripes or.....??? Frame is factory length another plus in my books.

 

Can’t wait to see your pics once you get that rig rolling. Something about it.... it’s just got that look.

 

Can one of you Pete guys tell me if a 389 sleeper can be transplanted to an older 379? How much work is a fella lookin at?

 

Don't hold me too it but if they are both unibilt cabs ain't nothing to it but ta do it

 

Sitting at the house in no hurry today. Got a load going to Wilmington, IL, and right back to the house. 120 mi round trip....hope I can get it done without an HOS violation LOL ! Don’t feel right pulling a container and speaking English....
