Re: Starter Motor

Some of the truck parts vendors do have 12 volt starters that are direct replacements for 6 volt starters. This page shows the 6 and 12 volt units for 47/54 side by side https://www.classicparts.com/searchprods.asp

On the oil pressure issue, they also sell replacement gauges that read 60 lbs that are direct replacements. The 53 trucks that had the pressure oil 235 came with those.

This page shows the oil pressure gauges https://www.classicparts.com/Gauges-...oducts/845/3/0
NOTE: neither of the links is a suggestion you buy from this particular vendor it is just to show examples of what is available in both cases.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
