I love your "always think of the next person" way of working. I was taught that as an apprentice and it seems to be missing from a lot of work ethics these days.

Rare, rare, rare in USA too!! Incredible, Bruce!!
-
Well Bruce this has to be the easiest "will it run" you have done in a long time. We are all happy that you have recovered and are in good spirits. Your old viewer from East Texas.

Built in Lansing, MI? I grew up in mid-Michigan, 30 miles from Diamond Reo plant, and saw many D-Reo dump trucks, semi tractors, tow trucks, but that 6x6 chassis is unlike anything I remember. REO also kept a big gasoline six into early 1960's after its competitors had all gone diesel.

That skull dangling in the windshield makes this even more cool.

Well done Bruce, that would be awesome to see it restored. It would make a fantastic recovery vehicle. Cheers mate, Stuart.

Glad you're back Bruce and I'm even more glad you took some time off. Thanks!

A good day's work there Bruce. The resale value of that old beast just doubled.

What a wonderful thing. A 6.354 turbo, my favourite engine of all time in a 6x6 beast of a truck. Would make a very cool recovery truck. I want it so much not sure my neighbours would be as enthusiastic though.

You need a 2nd channel where all the old rigs are restored to their former glory!
