I learned to drive truck in my dads 73 GMC Astro 3 axle 318 Detroit 13 speed over ! Every time I stop for fuel it would take 1 gallon of oil ! Back then Every body called them a screaming Jimmy or a Yamaha! Ours had twin stacks and twice a week i pulled lumber from N Cailf to LA and the fun part was pulling the grapevine! 17 mph top speed loaded ! Lol great memories loved that truck!

We learned how to drive-in a cab over just like that except it was a twin screw that means it was a Tanner Maxwell not a should add another. Axle to that 1 drop of 400 Cummins big Cam in it and put a 13th speed behind it. You'd have a h*** of a truck

Hey great show. Drove astros from 1978 to 1987. Great old trucks. Both Cummins bought new. Stopped in Feb. seen Tim and Braxton. Had a great visit. Sure nice couple. Asked were your dad was. He was working at the other yard I think. Would have like to met him. And yourself. Take care. Hopefully will stop in some other time. Bought some shirts and hats. Sons loved them.

Well you have three great mechanics helping you on it. Make it better then brand new and reliable and stretch it and pull boats.

Looking forward to seeing youseguys restore/rebuild this thing! Your Dad will be invaluable for his wisdom & knowledge. I’d personally do a short stretch, air ride suspension & cab, aluminum tanks & a lot of bright work. ( Old school cool!) Replace every line, hose & wear joint (rubber bushings, idlers {there’s a lot of pivot idlers/joint} suspension/ steering) Unfortunately you’re probably gonna haveta get a lot of custom interior things. Maybe the Daycab Company could help? Good luck! I’m rooting for ya!

When the cab is up on most of them old astros look on the side of the shift tower, when working on it there’s a push button to start it, I do believe the key still needs to be on but you can still start it from on the ground
