That truck is refurbished, originally a 50s model. My buddy had one just like it, it was originally a '54 refurbished by Oshkosh in '78 and retagged as a '78 model. 3306 is a Cat engine, not Cummins as stated and it doesn't look like any Cummins I've ever seen, I believe it is a Cat.

It would still be a nice truck, but loud as hell to operate.

Looks like a W model. Huge truck to try to manuver, great for airports, sucks on the roads. Put a couple blades on that and any Prius within 100 yards is bound to get run over.

And yes, their all loud, I can vouch for that.:eek:

I liked the idea of the grader blade. On a truck? Like it can't decide if it's a truck or a bulldozer. I'd be happy to park it in the back and just look at it sometimes.

Simple pleasures!
