Repstock Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 If so, could you guide me to pictures? Thank you!
NOBLNG Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) I know absolutely nothing about Big Rigs…but I found this. I don’t know if this is the truck you are wondering about, but it lists a single exhaust. Edit: and a youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=-bKcFhj1so8 Good luck. https://content.wisconsinhistory.org/digital/collection/ihc/id/36718/ Edited November 15, 2023 by NOBLNG
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) LMGTFY Hmmmmm...There doesn't seem to be any shortage of images and other info. https://www.justtrucks.com.au/trucks-for-sale/1973-international-transtar-4070-8v71/JTW3234877 Or videos. This is also apparently an 8V71-powered CO 4070 Edited November 15, 2023 by Ace-Garageguy

I had a chance to buy a rough pair of COE tractors...Freightliners I think...back in the mid '80s, one barely running, one for parts...CHEAP. But my shop doors weren't tall enough to get 'em inside. Pretty sure they went for scrap not much later. Still makes me sad to think about them. Edited November 16, 2023 by Ace-Garageguy
Oldriginal86 Posted November 16, 2023 Posted November 16, 2023 Once the truck reaches a certain age they are no longer considered reliable. No company wants to hire on an owner-operator with unreliable equipment. Your right it’s sad to have trucks with more miles to go to be put out to pasture.
