    Think I would have left that end piece on but maybe you know something I don't. I used Ospho Metal Treatment on my 84' International 9670 frame then painted the frame with a brush, using Rustoleum. Turned out better then I expected, that is for sure.

    James just my opinion but if Betty was my truck I would z cut the frame where the 5th wheel plate ended and add the new cutoff there…. Nothing like a stretched Marmon! My dad had one that was stretched I loved pulling that icebox up and down I95…. And the people who loved seeing her! Btw it was a 325 inch wheelbase road like a cloud

      @JamesPretty  3 месяца назад +1

      you're not wrong! if every single piece of the Hendrickson wasnt worn completely out and every part was available id maybe consider just repairing it, but after searching for months I was only able so source about 80% of the parts and the bill was well above 7k dollars. I have the 8bag. I like the simplicity of the 8 bag im not set in stone on it yet.. I just want to get the frame blasted painted and the sleeper replaced and the new tanks on. and then put some drive train in it.
