YouTube wanted me to share this with you

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Sounds great. Would love to hear it leaving the grounds going up hill.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

It really does sound good. I'd like to hear it under power, too

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Another great sounding Crown Bus (last part of video):

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

I bet the school boys loved that! (or would have if it had sounded like that while in service)

'54 GMC 630 4-71. I bit more than just hearing the truck run. A lot more story on this fine machine. If all you want is to hear it, jump to 12:20. What a great truck. Beautiful!

And another quickie. Neat truck!

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Freshly painted 4-53. The right color too:

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

I'm not sure if I used to not like that color. Maybe it was a lighter shade we called hospital green I didn't like. But I sure like it now! It's close to what a lot of big truck interiors were once painted and I think school buses. Some shop tools uses a close color, too. I always like seeing that color now. almost as much as hearing a Detroit 20stroke

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

I call it "Detroit Diesel" Green, but I believe the correct name for it is Alpine Green.

I agree, if it wasn't for the Detroits I probably wouldn't like it, lol.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

I like it now!

This is a good time to play this

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Here's something to watch a while:

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Hey Bill, I got a "not found" when I clicked.

I just copied this, haven't watched. But it looks like it might be a truck I knew of in the '90s from Vermont, I think it was

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

How about a competition 900 series with a Silver V8?

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Tim, it still works for me ??

The 970 was filmed in Germany actually.

The Detroits above all sound great.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

I just tried again with no luck. The title at the top just says You Tube. I have no idea why I get the 404 warning
That 970 I did notice is in Europe. It looks a lot like the one from Vermont in the '90s and I haven't seen that one show up at any ATHS or ATCA events, magazines, or on You Tube. Probably is a different one, but I wonder what happened to the one I knew. It was clean as a whistle

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Whoever filmed that 970 did a good job and it sounds great. Trying to figure out what trans it has, but you can tell it has 2 sticks. Very well could be the same truck.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

The only thing better would be driving it. Great running truck, that's for sure.

Going in another direction. This 4wd pull truck just showed up on my You Tube

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

I like what this guy has done. A nice custom truck
