DRIPTROIT 71

Nice looking Ford!!! What engine are you going with?

Thanks Gator and Rick!! I was never happy with my first attempt at making a fuel tank. This is my second attempt. This one was made by wrapping tin around water pipe. Not totally happy, but this one is a keeper.

Very nice build!!

That will be cool!! It will definitely will not be under-powered.

I'm not sure about the Mack engines. I know that the 758 has a smaller hood than the ones that I listed. There is a Brockway website. On the website there is a 758 listed that has a 6v53 Detroit in it. There are also a couple listed with 230 Cummins in them. There is also one on govdeals.com that has a 6 cyl. Cummins in it of some kind. From what I've dug up, it looks like the Cummins engines were slanted on the 758.

This may be the best looking 377 that I've seen! Excellent Work!!

The 759's and the 761's offered NH230 Cummins, 6-71N Detroit, in single axle and NH 230 Cummins, VT-903 Cummins, 6-71N, 8v-71N Detroit in tandem trucks as well as plenty of other options. The 758 was probably about the same. The 1674 Cat was offered in the 761 tandem. There's a Brockway (not sure of the model) just up the road from me that has a Detroit (there's no doubt when you here it), but I'm not sure what size. I'm kind of partial, but you can't go wrong with a Detroit.

Looking great!!

Looks Great!! Nice work!

I haven't even opened the re-release, but I built an original about 17 years ago. I don't remember any problems, but then again, I don't remember a lot about 17 years ago. L.O.L.

Thanks Gino and Dennis!! I connected the intake and exhaust pipes. Things started getting crowded fast, but it all managed to fit.

I like the white walls!
