This one was converted from a service truck into a grain truck. Talked to the guy who built it and they also made some silage trucks that sold across the US. They extended and double framed what must've been a service truck so that's why it has 6th gear unlocked on the Allison. I was very happy to use it this harvest.

@@midwestmechanics1921 So the lorry(truck) was converted by the owner at his garage , workshop from a flat bed to a bulk grain carrier, a very neat job with the Primrose or York style lifting tag axle. Nice to hear the Allison auto has all six gears working? a good spread for driving on the flat and the hills, as in the Cotswolds the hills are steep, the roads narrow and twisty. If a similar lorry were built in the UK, be a DAF 65 CF COE chassis with a Cummins 6BTA ISME an automated clutch and manual gearbox. Would not be that difficult to fit the 6 speed Allison auto to the DAF, a far better choice and more robust.

That's awesome 👍

Fuck yeah buddy 😂👍

Your feedback means a lot. The luv and f250 were my great uncles trucks so they mean a lot to me. I plan to do better content on this channel in the future, thanks for watching 👍

@@midwestmechanics1921 No, the content is okay- just being kids on a farm. But a little more context would be nice about whats going on. What is it You´re doing or what You about to. Or what shitbox´s turn it is, now. The video seemed a little all over the place. At one moment we did donuts and cut into irrigation work and no comment- that´s what I mean. You do what You can, One can only piss with the cock one got. Kind Regards

@@midwestmechanics1921 Thanks, no worries. This is a 1st for me, someone states my opinion matters. Normally nothing happens or I get an eff u back. You could do better by introducing what´s happening. I enjoy watching others peoples rides, that´s why I liked the little diesel. That thing would fit perfect on German roads. It would suck on the Autobahn but otherwise it´s perfect. Kind Regards

No worries man, it's just random silly clips I have laying around, thank you for the support it means a lot.

Yes

🤯

No I am

Everyone would call a 79 a squarebody online so you're in the minority there. "Straight pipe as in true duals with no catalytic converter"

If you have nothing but negativity to offer maybe consider watching another channel, thank you.

@midwestmechanics1921 I could introduce you to a group of people that were buying these trucks brand new back in the mid seventies that would all call one a square fender . Supposedly this square body BS started with the '81 front end redesign . As for having no catalytic converter , that was the reason for the " Big 10 .when that truck was new , anything over 6001 lb. GVW was exempt. from running cats . The Big 10s came as either 6050 , or 6200 GVWs . I'm not being negative , only trying to keep the record straight . You seem to be having a problem with receiving constructive criticism .

You have to remember the title is simply to get the most people to find the video. Saying I'm too young to know what I'm talking about is not constructive criticism. I'm glad you're at least very passionate about trucks.

Yeah, the term "square body" came from Ford guys, since Ford never really named their trucks like Chevy did. Ford guys use terms like "bump side", "dent side" and "square body", which refers to the trucks Ford made from '80 to '96... or so. I HATE it when Chevy guys use that term, but it did start with the redesign in '81. That term may be popular now, but I'll never use it. I've never heard the term "square fenders"... around here we just called them "70s Chevy's" when I was a kid. The engineers who designed them named the series "Rounded Line"... oddly enough... And I'll back you up on the "straight pipe" deal... it does in fact mean no cats, no mufflers, nothing but pipes. It amazes me that in this age when everyone has a computer in their pocket with access to literally EVERY piece of information mankind has accumulated throughout history... nobody bothers to actually use it to find the proper meanings of words and phrases.

Exactly

Yes

I did plenty of reving in the high school parking lot back in the day 😂

Yeah I was late to a couple that went for 50 dollars at an auction and beat myself up about it, the one had brand new tires 😭
