What year is the Kenworth? Surprised it still has 6-bolt wheels! You definitely live in the Sweptline area, there is nothing like that around the Midwest anymore.
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

There is lots of trucks like that in the Midwest. Many with very low miles. Think grain truck that drove 5 miles to town two months out of the year.... We just missed out on a 75 D600 with 29,000 miles.
Was the 75 D600 of the newer body style? I'm still perplexed at the door tag on this one.

Yes, 74 was the "new" body style. Would Canada have this other style a few more years?

The strange thing is that the door plate says it's a '75?
Why is that strange?
I thought the last year for this body style was 1973? Please elaborate.

Door handles and hood date it to 1967 model. Early 67 with the mid 65 to early 67 grill [/quote
100% what I was thinking. I'll have to get an eye on the tag and see what is says. And the title...

I should add that I have also seen 10 bolt wheels but those are usually on the 700's and 800's Never seen 8 bolt wheels on anything bigger than a 400.

That is a cool truck but I need something a little larger for my project. I'd have bought it in an instant anyway lol.
We finally for the old truck down off of the mountain today. What a trip. I'll clean it up over the weekend and give everything a once over before we start fabricating the box sides and spreader tail gate. I think the ODO says 37xxx miles. The guy I bought it from has a complete hydraulic winch setup with bumper and all he is going to throw in too. Not bad considering that I've spent more money on a porting a set of cylinder heads!

This flat deck with the saddle tank looks bad! Did you lower it? It kind of looks like you did, the stance is just right

I think we see why the previous owner consistently insisted that this was a "75" lol. I have never had a certicard for a truck. We found it in the back of the seat!
Looks like it's a 175" wheelbase,nice! My '69 L-600 cab over has the six lug wheels on the front,the rears are rings with retaining wedges.No certicard that I have found but I hope I find one.My body tag is missing,only a decal with the VIN.Plus it's been shortened so no idea what lenght my wheelbase was.Lots of cool trucks posted here!
