Just a couple of question on Mercedes Benz 1413 trucks, are there many about ? and the gearbox? the motor size, 130 hp ? and were they any good. :huh: :huh:
The one I have been offered is around 1966 and has been sitting around 35 years+ but will not know the good and bad till I get it home, maybe I should leave it there but the price is right. :unsure: :unsure:

Swishy, I'm pretty sure Bugly had a 911......

Old trucks will make you poor but not unhappy

Blew up a 100lb gas cylinder with air and set off back to see if it was moverable, put a bit of air in one tyre and the the rest looked OK, hooked a chain on and with a bit of scraching it moved so it is lined up now to back a dropdeck up and to push her on, all good.















The only worry now is between the double chassis that has been added between the cabin and the front spring hanger on the back axle.

Went and picked her up yesterday drop her off,didn't look at anything but went and had a look this morning and put a battery in and it turned a halve a turn and it stuck, hooked the Case 500 up to it and in top gear and rocked it back and forth a few times then it would spin over with starter, drained all fuel out of every thing put 60lites new fuel,had trouble bleeding it, so back on to the 500 with it and a couple of pops and farts and then a cloud of blue smoke and a old rats nest poped out the exhaust and she running, it hadn't been sitting as long as the lady said as it had a 2007 rego sticker on it
