That Big Horn is the same cab as the yellow 800 you looked at. They only made a few Big Horns for a couple of years trying to take a share of the long hood business from KW and Pete. I had a D-800 with a 238 with a 13 speed. Only transmission for the 238 if your going to load the wagon. I pretty much stayed around 90,000#. I had a Dodge LN-1000 with a 230 Cummins and 10-speed. They also made an LNT-1000. It was a full screw. I had that little cab over on a dedicated run to FL hauling window A/C units to a big wholesale Distributor. I love them Dodge COE's but I couldn't climb up in one now. Great video my friend. Keep up the good work.
That Bighorn has one of the most unique side profiles for a tractor I've ever seen. That big wraparound windshield set fairly far back gives it a look like nothing else.
Both those trucks share the same cab if you look at the cab the LCF and Big Horn share the same cab those Cabs were started to be used in the 1950's and used in the US till 1975 and south America had them till late 70's
Not that you'd ever want to come to my neck of the woods but I just picked up (literally yesterday) a 1964 Fargo LCF 1000 with the Cummins in it. I'd never heard of one, never seen one and can't find any pictures of one but now I have one!!
Those Dodge's are a rare ride. I never drove the big ones. But my first pickup truck was a 1970 D100 long bed Dodge DUDE. wish I still had it. But I was a dumb 16 yr old with lead footitist. Ha. I was truly a rare ride I found out. 1 of 250 maroon and White C striped with the logo in the back. of a production run of 1500.
I was at Chryslers at Carlisle a few years ago and there was a L1000 dodge cabover. It was chrysler corporate blue and white. Still had chrysler corporation on the doors.
@@DaneScottsTRUCKERSLOUNGE My Dad was a chrysler dealer for 40 years. During the 70's M&G Convoy delivered the new cars and they used yellow Dodge tractors like the one in the video.
I’m on a search for those model trucks since my grandfather used to drive one around hauling trailers and took me with him whenever I’d be on vacation with them. I’d really love to restore one to its former glory. Thanks for reading this comment god bless.
1 of the 3 on my "When I win the Lottery" wish list. 1. a Big Horn, 2. IH "Emeryville" 3. Freightliner "Powerliner" Champaign Tastes on a Cheap Beer Budget. LOL
O-H-I-O Porter greetings 🇺🇸 My brother had a Dodge toter truck back in the day. It had a gas engine & was one sweet running truck. I got to see the swing open fenders it had & the roomy cab. I was quite impressed with it. He didn’t own that truck very long. I’ve only seen a few of those trucks over the years. The Bighorns are quite rare. I bet JP found that truck at the same auction that I was unable to attend at the last minute. I loved those trucks & appreciate their flare & beauty! I wish Dodge still made big rigs like that! Good stuff! 🥰🤩✌️
Jp lafollette is my good friend, and I love your show and I subscribed to your channel and hope you have plenty of more shows, I'll catch ya on the next one
I drive semi truck for Sharp transportation right now great company and I have been driving truck since 2010 smokey and the bandit and convoy and black dog and white lightning and bj and the bear and moving on are the reason I like trucks
The single axel 800 was my dad's truck we owned D&G pools in `North Lima ohio it pulled a 3500 gal pup tanker and our low boy before us it was the city of Youngstown low boy tractor cool video thanks!
Enjoy your videos. Back in the early 70s Mrs Ormsby bought 2 c900s 250 cummins 10 spds 34 Tandem on hendrixson suspention for her 2 sons to haul wood chips from Elliott Hardwood new saw mil in Tupper Lake,ny to Cornwall Ontario. Burdick was the dealer in Plattsburh,ny. Dodge included a free 2wd pickup with the purchase of a class 8 truck.
Ok, as a Dodge semi nerd, i feel it is my duty to explain them to you. C=Low Cab Forward (60-76) CN=LCF diesel CNT=LCF diesel tandem (All Big Horns (73-76) are longnose CNTs) LN=Cabover, all heavy duty Ls were diesels (65-76) LV=Cabover, V-style diesel, e.g. 8v71, 555 LNT/LVT= Cabover diesel with tandem axles There's more knowledge in my Mopar infested head, but, beg pardon, I do not feel like typing it all out lol. Sorry for the long comment.
That's a LCF truck I love those things the fenders swing open and you can get right in there and it makes working on the engine really easy. I'm a big fan of those things my grandfather has a LCF 500 grain truck it has a gas engine in it I think it's a 318 poly or a 361 I forget but it's a cool truck
Wow I remember as a young airman stationed at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas Nevada and we used to refuel our F-4D Phantom jets from those Dodges they started replacing them with Mack’s in 1979-1981
Get to Lisbon at Tucker Equipment that I did two videos on. He's got lots of great vintage iron for sale. And can probably find you what you want. Thanks for watching!
One of my favorite Diesel Trucks. The Big Horn. Sad times during the gas shortage. Killed lots of things including the american sedan and the boogie van and the muscle car.
The 1973 gas crisis didn't kill the muscle car. The Clean Air Act of 1970 lowered octane and mandated smog compliance which became more stringent year over year. The top Chevelle SS 454 went from 450 hp in 1970 to 270hp in 1972 a whole year and a half before the gas crisis and was down to 245hp in late 1972 ('73 model year). In addition insurance premiums went up significantly for performance cars in 1970. US interest in muscle cars had waned a year or more before the gas crisis started.
I use to drive them CF COE's like the one hanging up behind you at the beginning of this video. I was running teams for them when they went out of business. That was going to be my retirement job. It was a very sad day for a lot of Corn Flakes drivers.
thanks for this video. I so fondly Remember those "Big Horn Dodges" One thing I do remeber is that if you ordered one. One could get an option of a Custom MOLDED Drivers Air Ride Seat to fit the driver. Was an interesting idea However I never got one, as I was OIL FIELD Heavy and well into Autocar back in those years of the Seventies. I bought a total of Eight of those Autocars Oh th ememories and that is all it is now I'm getting OLD but thanks for this video.
You can go to the local zoning department if you can find a near by address. Find the owner that way. They will tell you who pays land taxes on it. I’ve bought several old trucks that way.
We had dodge trucks in Australia but never the bighorn sadly, my brother and I made our own flip hoods much like them but not nearly as tough looking sadly
In Middleburg,Pa on rt104 I use to see a L1000. I always wanted to stop and look at closer. I don't kno any details on it or who owns it,it's been a few years since Ive been in that area so it may be gone... Im a huge Dode n Mack fan. Love the content an keep the great vids coming Dean 👍
First truck I drove for a paycheque was a C 900. 250 Cummins, and a 10 speed direct. What a piece of junk. Widows where down in the doors. Boss said “ When it gets cold out, I’ll put the windows up for you. “. With sticks. Had no rubber boot on the gearshift lever because you had to reach down there with an old trailer S cam that was kept behind the seat and reach down and hit the air shift valve mounted on the side of the transmission to get it to pop up to high range. Truck did 55 mph, but a bit faster in Mexican. When I worked at Cummins I could have the fenders, and rad off one of those in under an hour. Rebuilt lots of 8V 210’s and V 185’s countless head gaskets, Proctor Cartage in Toronto had a 903 in one. Basically they’re just a pickup cab as far as room goes. Milk crate between the seats and you where king of the road. Not ! When I was hauling cars, one of the companies we where merged with had cabover that had fold out homemade plywood sleepers in western Canada. Try getting some sleep in that with an 8V 71 screaming under you to try and keep the heat up. You couldn’t unfold the “ sleeper “ if you had a pickup truck behind the cab. They also ran IH cabover s and Pete’s with homemade bunks. Think about that……
I'm only 15 and I really get into these older generation truck and some day wish I could have a fleet of these truck and I would like to find either a big horn or an older mack
one other thing you wanna talk dodge trucks the man to talk to is tony youngblood in augusta ga. he has a dodge short horn tractor the only one restored in the world! rare you bet
@@billemerick8782 Yes he was. Key Dodge. He left Dodge around 68 and went across the street to Ed Houser Chevrolet. He worked for several Chevy dealer in the Peoria area along with International. He moved to Rogers AR in 1990's, working for a Chevy dealer there and finally quit selling at age 82. Always trucks and fleet. He loved what he did.
Just saw on Facebook marketplace a Dodge L1000 for sale in Denver PA. Also came across and article by Brad Rice traveling wv: Dodge truck collection. The man has 5 bighorns.
I had a chance to buy a L series back in the 90's but I turned it down and have rejected the day I did ever since. My friends uncle had it and used it on runs to haul scrap anyway I want to get one of the L series medium duty trucks that look like the A100 trucks of the 60's since I know the big L's are like hen's teeth and expensive as hell anymore
I thought it was closer to 262, it's been a while since I looked it up, but it definitely was in the 200's. I remember seeing a Big Horn at the back of some truck yard at the north end of Saskatoon about 20 years ago.
Great video! All those old Dodges are so ugly they look good. I fell in love with Dodge trucks a while back and have wanted a Big Horn for a while now but with how rare they are and how young I am (the no money thing) I doubt I will ever get my mitts on one before they're all gone or cost a million bucks. Still great to see though!
I have heard over the years that Dodge quite building big trucks at about the same time International Harvester quite building pickups and Scouts. That there was some sort of mutual agreement between the two companies. Is that true?
As I was trying to say this guy had a Dodge 800 with the big floater tires on it hauling milk into AMPI in Rochester MN. It wasn't pretty but it was Awesome. Another gentleman had a big horn with a sleeper hauling moormans feeds out of Quincy IL. Very cool truck. Time period on these trucks was early 80s
There used to be a dodge cabover in a salvage yard two towns from me. Next time i go out that way I'll have to see if its still there and send you the info if you wanted it
As much as my love for trucks rings true since childhood old and new big reason I became a driver the Dodge coes in my opinion have to be some of the ugliest coes ever made but that's just me talking now on the other hand the Big Horns are actually pretty cool looking.
That Big Horn is the same cab as the yellow 800 you looked at. They only made a few Big Horns for a couple of years trying to take a share of the long hood business from KW and Pete.

That Bighorn has one of the most unique side profiles for a tractor I've ever seen. That big wraparound windshield set fairly far back gives it a look like nothing else.
That’s why I love old school. Everything had unique style back then.
Both those trucks share the same cab if you look at the cab the LCF and Big Horn share the same cab those Cabs were started to be used in the 1950's and used in the US till 1975 and south America had them till late 70's

Not that you'd ever want to come to my neck of the woods but I just picked up (literally yesterday) a 1964 Fargo LCF 1000 with the Cummins in it. I'd never heard of one, never seen one and can't find any pictures of one but now I have one!!

On Dodge and Ford cabovers the fins on the front corners of the front fenders. Name what their use was.
They were used to direct air around into the door vents. White 7400 series cabover also used them.
I put thousands of miles on one back in the late 60's & early 70's but I have no idea what happened to it.

Another gentleman had a big horn with a sleeper hauling moormans feeds out of Quincy IL. Very cool truck. Time period on these trucks was early 80s
Sweet! Thanks for watching.
There used to be a dodge cabover in a salvage yard two towns from me. Next time i go out that way I'll have to see if its still there and send you the info if you wanted it
Sweet where at?
Burnerston auto wrecking in Burnerston Massachusetts
Would he sell the Tanker truck?
I believe it’s his neighbors that he’s fixing up for. You can find him though on Facebook, “Bob Parminder” Canfield Ohio.

Found it Thank you. Thanks for watching!
As much as my love for trucks rings true since childhood old and new big reason I became a driver the Dodge coes in my opinion have to be some of the ugliest coes ever made but that's just me talking now on the other hand the Big Horns are actually pretty cool looking.
Ugly makes unique lol. Thanks for watching!
