40 year old Autocar

My fire department just retired our 1974 Howe International open cab ladder truck with an 855 NTF365 small cam later after being blown out was changed to a 1986 NTC 400 number 3 that continued service up til 08/2017 he was a great truck and with the 5 speed T906b. He got around slow and the Jake was deactivated so we didn’t have a Jake for 10 years on him and if anyone has been east of Pittsburgh PA knows how there’s hills on hills and hills on mountains. That was a great 43 years out of that truck

Purdy old truck. when I was a teenager some 40 plus years ago my uncle had 3 Autocar gravel trains in Michigan. I remember him bragging about the trucks. all I remember is the one that was my favorite was dirty blue triple axel dump and pup trailer think it was 5 axle trailer. I remember it leaving the pit on fall afternoon just over 200,000 gvw and that monster was upshifting leaving the pit. them days not many trucks could do that. most would leave the scales get 3 or 4 gears then hit the hill out and drop 2 real quick. I remember 1 time one of the county tandem trucks was leaving the pit. the old Autocar was behind him on the scale the autocar passed the tandum on the hill out of the pit. the hill out was about 1000 feet long and 120 feet elevation change big curve to the top.

This truck used to be park on rt.7 above Brandon Vermont over a year ago for sale. It sat there for months and now gone

[@JRBUISEXCAVATING]

I used to see this truck in northern jersey all of the time. From what I was told, it burned up a few years ago. It sure was a pretty truck. Too bad.

Looks like a Puertorican Autocar!

[@scottsheehan1596]

[@chrisward7993]

that one sweet rig!!

[@donnebes9421]

Too bad he put all the lights and huge exhaust on that. I know it’s the owners to do what he wants, but I really like to see these classics restored to their original factory specs.

He's got to drive it all day just let him have a little fun damn!

[@donnebes9421]

@@ronaldmorrison6013 read my post again, knot head. I just wrote what I would do. Didn’t criticize or put him down. STFU! Get back to your parents basement where you belong.
