Re: 1967 C-50 Dump truck Project
I've been kicking it around the idea of doing a 12 valve swap and as mentioned in my first post, I intend to use this truck both for the farm and the local stone quarry. A quick little story that goes along with this next update: I have a friend, who works at our local school as a bus mechanic, ask me if I would be interested in becoming a substitute bus driver in all of my spare time...
I said why not. So I went through the classes and was ready to do all the driving tests, then the pandemic hit. So much for that...
Anyways, during the time of turning in paperwork and in general, just stopping by the bus garage to hang out, I was told about a bus that had a 12 valve cummins with a newer rebuild on the engine. So I asked how much and it was a bid kinda thing. So as of yesterday, I became the owner of my old high school band bus....
I'm not a 100% sure just how the project will go from here on out but I know I will figure out the best route for my needs before too long.
