Hi, I'm new here but heres my baby: 1975 F600 with the amazingly underpowered 330XD, 4 speed, 2 speed Eaton, manual steering, etc. Its got a really nice dual cylinder dump flat bed, 2 stage cylinders worthy of a full on dump truck haha. Im in the process of adding a radio and replacing the power valve in the carb today. She's got zero rust apart from the front fenders and only 34k original miles. It was used in a fertilizer plant and thats what happened to the fenders (currently looking for replacements or even swapping to a 67-72 body) Heres some photos of her







Also needs the seat recovered




mint everywhere

Interesting, I always assumed the '70's F500-750's trucks had the same instrument cluster
as the F350's and smaller.... guess not.

Do these style trucks have a small sleeping area behind the seats? I have always wondered and thought that would be cool if they did.

The great thing about working for a Wal-Mart supercenter is that all sorts of people use the parking lot as a rest area.

A more modern F650/750 that has been showing recently, finally got a pic of it.



Then an older L8000 Dumptruck that has been sitting in the parking lot for about a week now.



And then this unusual beast, I found at my local flea market. The interesting part, I thought was the Hella Team markings.

Those came with two different size sleepers. The one pictured was the smaller one. The larger one was only a few inches longer, still a one bagger as you call it. I guss the big difference was the driver had room to turn over instead of sleeping on his back all night.
