    Ah, the reliable and awesome Cat 3406B! And what an amazing Autocar you got there - one of my favorite cabs! Can you please do a super long raw uncut ASMR on this one, starting off with engine start up, shifting at high RPM's, and ending with engine shutdown? I want a super long ASMR on this one, like 3-4 hours long, so I can listen and watch it and fall asleep while listening to the straight pipes on this thing! Please let me know ASAP.

    I worked on many of these 9000’s in the early to mid 70’s. Most had 903 Cummins V8’s. There wasn’t much room under there. You had to unbolt the cab mounts, and lift the cab up on the passenger side to remove the rocker cover. If you getting into it further you remove the hood and rad in short order. All those Whites where pretty sold. The Western Star had a few more comfort appointments, such as padded interior. Drove a few 4000’s and Stars. The Velvet Ride suspension sucked. About as bad as the Hendrickson Concrete Block suspension.
