The moccasins belong to the previous owner.

The original 315 must have blown up or something. I have found this to be a common problem on the bigger 4wd fire trucks, they would try and run 5.87 geared trucks, or in the case of W500s, 6.88 geared trucks, at 60 MPH, and they would blow the motors.

I have a friend with a 59 W500, his truck has 19,000 miles on it, and it has a 413, the SECOND replacement. The fire dept blew two poly 318s before they dropped in the 413 with a govener. Pretty bad for 19,000 miles!

The rest if his truck is SO tight and original that the milage must be correct.

I look forward to pictures of your truck!

Eric
