Have you asked around on the G741 site? A few years back there was a gal out east restoring one of these. It seems like she had a couple more for parts. I will see what I can dig up.
Just a friendly bump for some fresh weekend eyes. Anybody know where some rims off a 8x8 are laying? Andrew has some ideas using Dayton rims so we shall see.
There used to a be a person on here that owned one of them but that has been a few years ago. There has been two that I have seen auctioned off on GL.. Very unique truck has a different transmission also if I recall correct.
Do you have any close up pictures of the rims/wheels for your truck Bjorn? What's the availability of them? Hens teeth? I am wondering if they could be modified to work on Andrews truck. A few of his are in real bad shape.
No need to be sorry...lol.. I just recall allot of the early trucks from when they switched from gassers to diesel were the 427 and never looked at the tag. The inside of cranetrucks drums are interesting. I wonder whats inside yours?

I am looking for some prices to haul a M146 from Homosassa Springs , Fl to Boyne City, Mi. Trailer is in good shape and tires are decent. A small tractor would be all that is needed. Also have a trailer dolly at location so a truck like a Kodiak without fifth wheel plate could do it also but...
I was unsure where to post this, so mods ? Feel free to move to appropriate spot. It looks kind of pinzy or maybe early Volvo? Has a flip down prop in the back??
If someone could produce a non swelling replacement float for all these engines at a decent price they could sell a boatload of them !! I have the pumps, gensets, tent heaters, compressors, you name it!! All have the same problem sooner or later. Drain the gas does not work, like someone else...
