Some people might cringe when they see this pulling into their drive, but I think it's a beautiful sight. Thanks to my friend Darryl, this left Washington State today. Should be in Iowa on Tuesday. I'm like a kid waiting for Christmas.

If you're really interested in selling it, take a good, clear picture and advertise it in Hemmings Motor News or a magazine like Vintage Trucks.

Guys
I had to reply. That was a fun load. He was only 880 lbs overweight so he dumped fuel to make weight the rest of the trip. He could go 42500 on the rear spread and he was only 71220 back there. Heavy old trailer. That 25000 engine on the front is still for sale, now at Terry place. That old Oliver weighted right at 20,000 full of fluid and weights. I could load trucks everyday. Love trying to put a set together and make it work.
Have fun Terry, still got more stuff out west everyone !!! (Sorry no 21's )
Take care, Darryl

I met that this morning about 6:50am at Ogallala, NE. It was either getting on or off I-80. I was getting off I-80 in the blue Pete 379 headed south to Grant with a load of Dekalb seed corn. The temperature was minus 9.
