I am curious why you are idling your engine for this length of time in the winter? I was under the impression that the data plate says run the truck engine for 5 mins before running engine at higher RPM's.
More engine wear occurs during start up and in cold engines. Why not idle the truck at...
Nice one DR.
I saw a HUMMER stretch limo the other day, that was jacked up into a monster truck HUMMER stretch limo. It had a front nearside tyre blowout and was on the side of the motorway. It was leaning SO bad, it looked like a sinking ship. The people looked real sick, as they were going to...
wallew,
Your truck rocks man. I have to be honest though, I do like the look with the duels and not the singles. Each to his own though. I really need to get a truck this year. I'm just hoping that Beltring has plenty there. Then I will spend the whole day going round asking if the owners want...
Wallew,
Ok, if you buy a truck from a dealer that is VAT registered, then you have to pay VAT at 17.5% on top of the asking price. As this is a private sale the truck is sold at this price.
As regards the truck in question, I spoke with the guy yesterday on the phone for an hour, and there are...
Hello mate,
Glad to see someone else from England on here. Welcome.
I haven't bought it yet. For £6500 the truck needs to be mint and 100% complete. I have to call the guy about the bits that are missing and ask him if it will be all there when he sells. He said it will be 100% complete when...
Here are some more pictures of the truck I promised. Please give me as much feed back as you guys can, it's a lot of money. I'd like to know if you guys notice anything of interest. By the way, it has a rebuild plate in the cab from a place I presume is in Germany. Any further info on this?
I...
Interesting mix of tyres on the same side and wheel station. One looks like a Firestone Super All Terrain and the other a Good Year Hi-Miler Extra Grip (in 7.50x16 tyre size).
That is strictly illegal over here.
Kenny and Brent, thanks for your replys.
$750 for a new Turbo. WOW. I will have to get one sent over from the States. Even with shipping it will still be cheaper than here.
I have also noticed that the bonnet handle that bolts on the end of the hood is missing. But, as the truck has still to...
Thanks LTR,
I notice on your front grill, in the bottom left and right hand corners, there are some vertical braces (2 in Number I think). On this truck for sale there isn't. Does this mean anything, IE is it an earlier grill, are there different types etc? I've also noticed it hasn't got any...
This truck is being advertised for sale in England for a price of £6,500 ($12,250). The guy said it's had a three year body off restoration, complete sandblast and re-paint. I have noticed some things that don't look right about it though.
1) There seems to be a big gap between the hood and the...
Result, got a Deuce Operators Manual off Ebay for £1.50. Came from a USAF base in England. Dated 1976.
I am now in the process of reading it cover to cover. Better than loading up my CD-ROM on computer.
All I need now is the truck to go with it!! :)
