Re: New from Argentina.

neat truck! I see some interesting features that might be only for argentina production?
1) looks to have an underbed gas tank.
2) the bed looks shorter behind the fender.(maybe it is because of the squared off fender?)
3) the fenders are a different shape in the back.

3) the fenders are a different shape in the back.
1) actually has a gas tank under the bed.
2) the bed is shorter behind the defense. (Defense is square)
3) If the mudguards are shaped differently in the back
Argentina's edition has differences that will show soon.

I have many things to share and consult.
I wonder how the towers are 230 engine?
Thanks and I hope I answered what you asked. regards

Re: New from Argentina.

Hola Minzer, Your camión should be easy to work on. We need pictures under the hood to see what parts you need.

Camión in Spanish= Camion in French= Truck in English

Your engine mounts are different than what we have on our trucks. Your motor is not from that truck?

Dimensions of you box?

Re: New from Argentina.

Found this on the link from the members from South America. While the artist rendition of the rear fenders are sloped like the North American built trucks, the photographs show the square rear fenders like Minzers.

Re: New from Argentina.

Complementary information on the beds back in Argentina, you will see that the model 67 also brought the end fender "straight".
Greetings and thanks for the input!

Re: New from Argentina.

66 has square fuel door on drivers side.

Purple 67 has a round fuel door on the passenger side, white 67 has no fuel door on passenger side.

Re: New from Argentina.

Some more pictures. The chassis needs alignment and welding on the front, I'll see it next week taking it to a nearby workshop with tools and space needed. Thank you for participating with their views.

I wanted to inform you that in my country there is no auto parts of this model and some of the floors that are defective surely get by changing sheets and molding ... See what happens!

I hope you understand my writing because my English is weak. thanks

Re: New from Argentina.

The chassis was entirely repaired.
changed since the carter did not match the format of the front and also the oil pump.
The engine oil was very dirty ...
* Also change the gearshift lever, the floor with your selector. Reviewing the gears are in perfect condition but is locked.
Another change was the ring gear.
The next tell them with photographs.
thanks

Re: New from Argentina.

Between your English and the Photos we're loving it.

You're English is fine and we are speaking Truck anyway.

Your truck is sweet. I love those back fenders. It would be awesome to get a set on a project here in the USA....they would be one of a kind.

Keep us posted!

Luck!
