Another top of the line F 1100 tractor.Attachment 200370

Sweet truck.
I still have yet to go see that super duty, I will hopefully soon. Been trying to get back in touch With a guy down the street from it that has some other parts I need. |
Bet that tandem tractor from the 6/29 post is a diesel conversion. Note the air cleaner pre-cleaner sticking through the hood, exhaust stack, and oil stain on the fuel tank. Detroit 6V-53's fit nicely in those Fords.

Awesome thread. I had a 57. Don't remember a lot about it. Had juice brakes and single rear axle. Gas V8 and a long flat deck that I hauled a Jap Cat about the size of a D4 on over a mountain. Was all she could do but did it well till I ran out off gas and went backwards till she found a flat spot the brakes would hold her on. And this at night on a secondary old logging road. Some of the dumb stuff we did in our younger days. I wonder how I made it to 60.

That sounds like fun ! :-X04 Here is another one for your viewing pleasure. this is not the one I have been talking about, I have yet to go see it, maybe soon. this is a new find, no engine in it, but love the big back window! Attachment 200361 Attachment 200362 Attachment 200363 |
These trucks are epic warriors of the past. Save them and carve our fathers' names in stone.

Wow, big back window, Custom Cab. I wonder what other little options it
has? I'm in total lust, but that doesn't take much at my age! |

Tripleframe- I think that's what I'm looking at. If I remember correctly, it has "401" on the side hood emblem flags.
Here's a shot of the "business end" of the truck: http://i1162.photobucket.com/albums/...ps151030d8.jpg Sorry I dont know how to attach a photo but I =just noticed the fuel tank which is exactly the ones (two) on my 1956 ten wheeler. Exact mounts and all. sam |
Found another old photo of "real" Super Duty's, thought I share.http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/...psb17a37a1.jpg

Any updates? I just got an original radiator for mine.
I'm still looking for other parts and pieces. Here's the 1959 I got the radiator from: Attachment 198981 Note how big the top tank is: Attachment 198982 Is that the standard for these trucks? My images are the only pictures of a super duty radiator on the internet. Here it is next to a 1970's f600 radiator: Attachment 198983 They are both awaiting a re-core/restoration. Anyone want to decode this? Haha. Attachment 198984 |
