What part of Maryland are you in? There's a very good fellow with taskforce trucks near hughesville and Stovebolt HQ is down on the western shore.and welcome to the stovebolt page | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 477 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2001 Posts: 477 | this thing made in the 70's? should be the same cab as the 9500 with a metal doghouse and metal side opening hoods. is that right? 9500 series were the big road tractors with diesels in them. one of my favorite big trucks, and fun to drive. used to drive a 9500 with a 238 and 5x4 trannies. the aux. box was an airshift, and i would wind out the engine and shift as fast as i could. helluva good old truck. not many left.
never heard of them referred to as "t" series though | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6 | Sorry I forgot to add the year of the truck. It is a 1966. It has a 478M gas engine, 5 speed / 2 speed rear. It is not a road tractor its not that big. A few parts books I have seen list the truck as a "T" model cab, however very few parts are even listed for this series of truck.
