signguy2108 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Cool! Did it not have a collar on? Needs a beacon on top, these old cl's were tall
Badluck 13 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 I suppose it could make be a good reference source ... Any plans for it? Work or pleasure? ....Strictly for reference only ...... We got her for pleasure to go to shows, charities , etc.
Badluck 13 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 Cool! Did it not have a collar on? Needs a beacon on top, these old cl's were tall Nope noooooooooooo collar .....I know it looked like you were gonna get decapitated going under the over pass......
Fat Brian Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Man I love those CL's, I guess I'm going to have to save my pennies for a resin one.
Chuck Most Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Now all you need is a C-Series. You know- something nicely in the middle of both.
Badluck 13 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 Now all you need is a C-Series. You know- something nicely in the middle of both. They do have '86 C model which my fiancée just adored.....and the Crackerbox too.........
Chuck Most Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Hey, if the fiancee likes it, that makes your job that much easier....
tbill Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I've had a lot of stuff 'follow me home', but never anything that big, lol. that's just too cool!
Jim B Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I think SWMBO might kill me if something like that "followed me home". A motorcycle, maybe; but not that! Nice find, though.
cowboy rich Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Nice find, may have to try it followed me home with the wife, been watching a clean '84 ish 359 I want! You planning a full resto.? Side note every time I see a ford cabover first thing that comes to mind is Armed and dangerous
signguy2108 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I aqquired an old '64 Ford N600 about 4 months ago, still haven't gotten up the nerve to tell my wife yet, too cold to live in it right now! A friend of mine owned one of the Bud Moore-Motorcraft CL9000 nascar haulers years ago, red & white, beautiful truck, (google CL9000racehaulers) there's a pic of it.
Badluck 13 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Posted February 14, 2017 What are the specs on the CL? '81 CL9000,350 Cummins , 9spd , single axle day cab with just a tick over 688,000 miles,she was an ex Frito-Lay truck and when retired became a farm truck till the granddad pasted away. She needs a good cleaning and some tidying up.......
signguy2108 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Sounds nice, 350 is a lot of power for that type of truck, could be fun on the highwayJust dont hit the brakes real hard, may tip and scrape the windshield on the pavement!
