Extremely Satisfying Pressure Washing Video of Cabover

[@S1ckbg]

there is something oddly satisfying when bringing old/vintage stuff/cars/trucks back to life

[@uziixyz]

very true

[@bdtaylor1979]

As far as the pressure washing of the international goes, very satisfying. As far as the wheels on your Dodge Ram goes, I am a big fan of the classic look of normal size wheels and meatier tires. I’ve never been a fan of the big wheels and low profile tires.

Love the small wheel with bigger tires combo especially if you plan on doing any real off roading. Nice cushion ride if you drop the pressure a bit.

I agree, do a full service on the engine and transmission and rears. Remove the AIR DAM, keep the side extensions, clean everything out of the interior BEFORE lifting the cab, good luck with it, my first two trucks were COE's, been trucking 40 years

Change in regulations. Before there were restrictions on the overall lengths of a semis. When they were changed to not include the tractor, makers went with the more conventional design which provided better comfort to the drivers on long hauls, and easier to maintenance since the engine didn't sit under the cab.

[@ethank3939]

Dan Beardshear it will save on fuel if he’s hauling a semi-trailer, but I doubt he will anytime soon.

[@leejohnson6173]

That truck most likely wont even go fast enough for areodynamics to play a big role in the fuel economy anyways.

[@ronclifford3336]

Since you are going to pull a flatbed with it, the side faring probably wont help you on your fuel mileage? They put that on for trucks pulling van trailers to keep the wind from going in between the tractor and trailer and causing it to burn more fuel. The top air deflector was for the same purpose, basically keeping the trailer from running head on into the wind. When you're pulling a van or box trailer, the faring and deflector make a big difference in pulling and fuel savings. I put one on top of my pete and got a pretty good increase in my fuel mileage and strong winds didnt affect the pulling on the truck. It would go through strong winds out west and never slow down from the wind drag. Id leave the side faring on it though? Makes the truck look a little better I think? If its a Big Cam 350, its probably pushing about 400 horsepower? Should pull really good? Most older truckers call an International a Cornbinder. I loved the one I drove.

If you’re going for a “hot rod” truck, the fairings on the roof and back of bunk gotta go. Cheap way to go is find a frame cutoff at the wreckers and add about 2 ft of frame at the same time. Take the spacer blocks( or shorter spring shackles) out of the front axle. And you got a stanced badass cabinover. And LOSE THE MUFFLERS! those old mechanical Cummins sound evil through straight pipes. And just paint the frame. Leave the age (coolness)on the cab. Either way,gonna be a cool old binder.
