M1008 in the netherlands

[rjager]

Hi all,

I am following this forum some time now, lots of good info. Because I am dutch I dont always understand the technical terms but hee I learn

I have a M1008 for several years now. Currently I am restoring it, the climate here creates rust fast. I really like the truck.

I am thinking about several mods.
Thinking about adding a banks turbo( With the dollar<=>euro conversion they are rather cheap) and a dual tank setup.

Regarding the turbo. Cars over here have to be tested yearly. For a diesel one of the test is running it full throttle for 10 sec to measure emissions. Can the engine handle that with a turbo installed?
Milage is 30k

I also thought about a lift or bigger tires but that has to wait because i have about 1 inch left when parking the car inside.

medlog, is this real Dutch? Call me skeptical, but the first sentence doesn't look right, it looks bastardized, like this guys Swedish language:

Bork bork bork!

I'm not questioning him. I'm questioning his Dutch.

Nice looking M1008 by the way.

You can beg rjager to tell you what that means.

Welcome to the website. I don't know the answer to your question but I want to welcome you.

Where do you live? A long time ago I visited Arnhem, Overloon, Eindhoven and Nijmegen.

Provided the engine is in good shape it shouldn't have any trouble going at max throttle for 10 seconds.


Nice truck btw. I know the pains of a short garage door also.

Is het mogelijk om LINE-X uw vrachtwagen? Er is een bericht over dit onderwerp op deze website. Zijn er winkels in Eindhoven de verkoop van deze coating? Dat zou moeten helpen met de rust. Ik weet hoe een aantal van de restrictieve wetten in Europa kan worden. Ik woonde er al meer dan 3 jaar. Als je niet kan kopen van de coating, zal ik graag leveren als u betalen voor mijn vlucht en hebben een plaats voor mij om te verblijven voor een week of twee weken. (lacht luid)

Het wordt niet in eindhoven verkocht.
Ik verwijder de roest en gebruik dan Owatrol samen met een industrie lak er over heen. Wordt bij schepen en landbouw voertuigen gebruikt en werkt goed.

Een vriend heeft een stoomtractor uit 1880 op die manier opgeknapt 15 jaar geleden en nu nog steeds geen roest.

Any one else lost? LOL Welcome to the site! I personally miss being in europe. You have a beautiful country. Also the only one I was ever actually pulled over in, and it wasn't when I was driving the M1009. Which surprisingly managed to sqeeze through the streets and alleys of Amsterdamn a few times. I have a banks on the M1009 but I am not sure I have had it at full throttle since they don't have an rpm gauge in it. I have had my foot buried in it for more than ten seconds, and have had the needle buried a few times more than I would like. I kinda would look down and realize what speed I had it at. I will be happy to answer any questions I can, and depending on Medlog's Dutch he might be able to translate some if it.

If you don't mind...

Anyone else ever hear of Owatrol which is a rust proofing used in marine and the agriculture areas? Never heard of it.
We may have to import LINE-X to the Netherlands. Think I need to go do the intial set up.

We moeten foto's van de stoomtractor.

OK, to cut to the chase, where is the dude with the "THIS POST IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICTURES".

A guy in Rotterdam rebuild a www.dodgepowerwagonm880.com/Dodge M880 W200 Technical main index.htmland kept a log on the internet. He used Owatrol as base-coat with good paint on top.

Link to manufacturer of Owatrol www.owachem.nl/index-download.htm it is the download page. Commercial name is CIP.
Unfortunatly the site is completely dutch and they dont have an english site.
