I drive um the truck OTR for aboot 30 years and was glad to get off the road around 25 years ago. The first few years I enjoyed and then in the first part of the 1970s it started to change drastically, the national speed limit of 55 mph was too restrictive, in order to survive one had to have a CB radio in order to make any time. Most of the talk on that electronic device to me was plain stupid. Then in the early 1980s when deregulation took place and a lot of companys went out of business a different breed of driver came on the scene. We old timers called them the tennis shoe wearing short pants, long hair burned out hippies. The only people they cared aboot was they selves. When I got off the road in 1991 people my age bracket were soo out of step with the new breed that we were in the minority compared to what used to be called the Knights of the Road. Nowdays when i'm driving I watch out for some stupid act from a lot of truck drivers that the people in autos used to pull.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
