Detroit diesels are first in my bucket list.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

That 6V-53 sounds exactly like and sure does remind me of my old '67 GMC 7500.

Here it is revised:

Thanks for getting that video formatted correctly Bill. Love that truck.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

What's not to love?

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

'70 9500 with a 6-71.

Poor quality video, but pretty cool sound:

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Love the straight 6 Detroit. Could use a course on videography or is a very short feller

8v71 in a 150 ton crane

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

That cannonball in video #3 looks really weird to shift. Is that just an eaton with the shift tower way behind the driver?

That 6-71 video is awsome. That guy has thing pinned!

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

It's just a regular 10-Speed Road Ranger, it's really just the way he is shifting it. In my opinion, he is shifting it "old school". The younger generation would shift them faster, both on the Double-Clutch and the Shifter speed. If you use the Clutch at all. As mentioned before in different threads, I would always use the Clutch. I would Double-Clutch every gear up and down shifting. It allowed me to shift faster and smoother.

Can't get it to show on this one for some reason.

Y'all going to have to just click onto it again for it to work, lol.

Has any of this been shown before?

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Not that I can remember Tim. Cannonball was an interesting show. I remember them on when I was a kid. Haven't seen one in many years though.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Hope you don't mind that I modified it for you:

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Thanks. I barely remember the show. Can you imagine if they put the same show out today?

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

We had our local show last weekend (Mason-Dixon ATHS). There were three Detroit powered trucks there. I messed up on videoing one (camera off) and accidentally deleted this yellow GMC pulling out:

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

They all sound great. I like how the Detroit drowns out the 2 B-Models, although the B-Models are pretty cool themselves.

Looks like a great time. Seems like a pretty nice place.

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

This was the first time the show was here. This is just outside Frederick, MD along US340 at Gladhill Tractor Mart, the John Deere dealership in the county. They've already been having the antique tractor/steam engine show/pull. combining them will do a lot to bring interest in our area. before, you either already knew about the show because you're already into the trucks or you happened to drive past the International dealer in the industrial area in town.
That other truck I fouled up recording was quieter (I didn't say quiet). Sounded real nice and tight

Re: Jimmy/Detroit Diesel Videos
 

Poor quality.... :)
It's kinda rough to hold an iPhone, drive an old truck and try to remember how to shift all 13 gears without messing up, all at the same time!!!

If you havent figured it out, that is my truck. Still have it, someday gonna do something with it!!!
