Very cool indeed! A little busy under that hood for me though.

Very interesting......1 too many gauges for my liking, but would be a very cool project and also has a very hard to find set of 1960 apache trim, back cab trim and the deluxe vent knobs that are rarely seen!!

Looks like a WWII bomber cockpit, but very cool!

Normally, tractors and equipment. They made a lot of 3 cylinders also.

The more I look, the more details I see. I can definitely appreciate the time, work and commitment that it took to make that truck driveable again. The diesel emblems, routings of hoses, A/C... it's a lot of work. Hey what is the thing above the passenger side door? Is it a shade or a stick of some sort?

kerber63 · 04-03-2015, 03:13 AM

Gotta respect the effort that went into making it all work.

It looks like a home roll up window shade. What is the speaker or whatever behind the door? And in front of the door it looks like there is a fuel tank transfer or battery disconnect switch? I too am finding the more things I notice the cooler I think it is in an almost steampunk kind of way.

We have a perkins diesel in our combine lol

**Clyde65** · 04-03-2015, 08:17 AM

That is real cool! I am not a fan of the gauges but I very much can appreciate the work on the shoe-horned engine. Kind of like a pre 4bt swap huh?
