The great BangShift Wrecker Recovery Mission Was a Success!

[tiresmoke!]

A wrecker.

You have a '68 Javelin sitting, screaming to be reborn....and you buy an old wrecker.

Procrastination much? LMAO.......looks like a clean truck from the pics, have fun with the trip.

Everyone else has pretty much covered the bases....I'd buy one of those el cheapo inflatable pool rings...your ass is gonna be BEYOND sore after the first 20 miles in that kidney-buster.

I would pay to see the look on the guys face when he comes to a AAA call and see's that beast on the side of the road.

give the tanks on radiator a quick wire brushing...

I remember actually working with this design to haul logs.
the rear diff gets very very hot,
and all cooling that needs to radiate has to be clean enough to do so.

...I'd also bring a small radio/boom box.. as 480 miles of big truck noise will get to ya..

Roger that - I went 5 hours in the bus at 53-60 mph WFO with a relay chattering and buzzing so loud it sounded like a car alarm... un-nerving to say the least. I didn't feel like checking on it because it was 30* outside and dropping.

Did anyone mention a fan? I'd get a cab fan.

You ought to get a trailer and haul Brutus back with Goliath. A final mission for the old boy.

this is where I'd google the race fan air seats that you put on the bleacher seat, they may sell them at sports stores, bass pro shop,richs sporting goods,etc.. BRIAN it'll be the best 20 bucks you'll spend.

it should have vent windows, that he might have to hit with wd40.. but they are better than any fan..

spark plugs
steal a couple plug wires off Goliath just in case
Oil
