ZIP IT, WOULD YA? With all this talk lately about crew cabs I can't concentrate. I had this crazy thought of a slick crew on a IH 3800 chassis with a DT466 and a allison 4-speed auto. STOP IT!!

Just kidding, I think....

JC: That's a funny video. I'm assuming the Hutterite's are a religious sect in Canada? Sorry to be so uninformed.

Yeah there are Hoots all over the northern prairies, MT Wa Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Alberta. Like Amish sort of, but different sects are allowed varying degrees of modernization. They live on Colonies and generally don't drive anything smaller than a crew cab. So that makes the words "Hutterite truck" and "crew cab" interchangable

Sorry Jason. I just realized that I have been aiding and abetting a "threadjacking" of your thread. I did learn something though.

Actually I was going to thank you guys for getting my mind on other things. I first wondered if that pic was from South PA and was going to ask Fanatic if he knew them. I wonder if thier brothers and sisters are also thier cousins and their dad is also thier uncle??

Gritsngumbo wrote:You got a lead on this rolling chassis?

Yes, that is half the problem.

I think it would be fun. It could actually be an easy project as long as the 466 and the radiator/charge air cooler fit under the hood.

HMMM I know where there is three 3800s, two with a 6 speed, one with a seven.

Ahhh crap, I'm doing it again..

Tom, PM me in about a year, maybe we can get a "2fer1"

The Ford has a 5.9 cummins in it. What you need is one with a 429 or a 370. We had four of them two 370s and two 429s, they were bullet proof. One that had a 370 in it is now in Alaska. It was cheaper for the guy to buy the bus then to rent a U-haul. Then when he got up there he sold it and got his money back.

I'll take the cummins one.

I've got one here now that is used as a church bus 95 Ford 5.9 auto bought it for 3 grand.
