While the oil boys used the big Kenworth, we used this little fellow...

One word Eric........WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He sure is. I live 500miles from his store. He keeps stashes for me as I ask him for new items from time to time. He does research and finds the best stuff/deals whatever. When the time comes he packs everything up and sends it. I can't praise him enough.

Is that kit still in production? -
Philippe, C'est formidable. You have the "touch" with classic cars.

Probably a chassis from a Snap kit and a 12V71. Looks like there is enough room.

Thank you Bryan.Looked them up. I guess that would have to be scratchbuilt.

Back in '75 I worked on a project in the Sahara.We kept seeing those all the time. If I remember well they were badged Kenworth. They seem to have a veed grille. Would that be anything close to AITM's Kenwort C500 or are they something else altogether?

The Deluxe Phaeton Eric refers to looks like this: And Chicle Drab is some sort of brownish gray:

Installed engine,exhaust pipe, fuel lines, battery cables. Put body back on and cowl on top. Now the cowl won't sit right I assume due to my playing with the firewall. It is staying there. Once I recieve the winch, I'll post it under glass. -

Modified the firewall and the rad support. I should go in now. Had to file off the fuel pump so I made one out of what looks like a one pot master cylinder. Added an intake/discharge tube and turned it upside down. Looks like a fuel pump. Added goodies and color to the engine. -
Another dumb question

I suppose I'm going to lean to the East. -

Thank you Terry. -
I keep seeing references to "West coast style vs East coast stye" in the various threads. What is the diference?
-
It'll likely wind up pulling the KJ detachable gooseneck. Is there an addirional air line for that or is it hydraulic?
-
Beau travail Philippe. I love the finish and Ahhhhhh. those wheels. Any chance of giving us a tutorial? I think I'll try and find one and turn it into a 31 like this one I once owned.

I guess I'll never learn. I always finish too much before everything is fitted. Ah done it again!!!! I ended up having to take it half apart to test fit the engine which I had assumed would drop right in. What do they say again about assume???? The mods to the engine were the least. It just won't fit. Added motor mounts to the engine. Filed down the ones on the frame. Will need to trim the bottom center of the firewall and modify the rad support to mount it further forward. -
I have to install some of those along with a pogo stick on my GMC. Just to be sure, there are two air lines ans one electrical right? And, are all those colors I see a code or can one use anything? That video below stayed there from my last post I can't get rid of it.

The engine swap will require quite a bit of little mods. Removed the y-pipe from the exhaust system. Removed the A/C compressor from the drive belt arrangement. My Jeep didn't have it. Removed the auto trans from the six Removed the manual transmission and transfer case from the 304. Re-flanged the bell housing. Don't know why I separated the transfer case from the transmission. Lost the locating tabs in the process. Transferred it to the six. -
