It used to be a refinery foam truck, still has the water pump and foam pumps on it but they're rusted really bad. Eventually I'll pull the pumps out and mount a PTO winch on the back with a set of gin poles and a fifth wheel. The body has some rust but it's not bad, it runs great and everything works and even has all four working T3 headlights! Definitely not a speed demon, it's governed around 2800? RPM and only does about 55MPH.

I once owned a truck tractor like your truck. It had a 478 toro flow diesel 5 speed and air brakes. that thing was governed at 3200 RPM
