Old iron

I doubt that. Starting a conversation with Heavy is kinda like one of those old walking beam pumps you see in the oil fields...it just goes on and on and on and...

 

I get a warm heart to see an older truck still working.. I’ve seen a couple of 359s in Arizona

 

I actually didn't mind X1-Heavy. He had some good stories and when he got long winded I'd just skim what he had to say and move on.
But I got to admit I couldn't help but picturing him getting on a roll using ASL and I keep thinking he'd have forearms like Popeye from all the working out he'd get done. Sure as heck wouldn't want him hitting you either.

 

Hey does the 359 comes with 29in fuel tanks?

here’s my measurement I desperately need a replacement tank, because I’ve taken off mines .left it at my house before the hurricane. And it’s stolen from me. Probably was scrapped..

Tank size never was a standard thing back then. They could be ordered in any dia. I think it is more about length with same standard dia. these days but back then when wb’s were shorter diam. made the difference for the capacity. You just didn’t have the frame space then.

 

29's in good shape are hard to find..especially if your wanting authentic Peterbilt tanks
I've got some 26" peterbilt tanks & saddles I might be willing to part with

 

The 90 gals. on my ‘67 are 26”. They use the pn# 11-600 A saddle. Some may have an A after the number for aluminum or S for steel. The straps for the 29” will need to be shortened.

The 90 gals on my ‘73 352 coe are 29”s with the same saddles.

 

hey I might be interested in them where are you located

 

South central Iowa... on a clear day I can see the NB scale house on I-35 at the 30 mm
