If it has been in the concrete business then rust in the chassis is likely to be your biggest problem. Have a google on here for rust between chases rails so you know what you are looking for.

whatever model it is, it is a C101 6X4 tandem drive with 30,000lb Eatons and a big Rockwell front axle normally found in the early W model Kenworths.

Grandad, I'm pretty sure it was the other way around ( & not a Cummins)..
I guess I could cheat & google It....

Grand dad is right it was the triple 555 made into a diesel or maybe one of the earlier 185 V8's but of that family and was a flop from what I have been told
