It's in fair shape to get mechanically fit and then attack the cosmetics. The Marmon has one asset and one downfall. Most mechanical components are from vendors that supplied Marmon. That's a plus. The minus is the cab and hood as they are specific to Marmon. The glass being flat is a good old school fix from the neighborhood glass shop. I would drain the transmission and rear ends using paint strainers to catch any surprises and reuse it until road ready. Way cool!

Hay Jimmy! This rig would have and should have been “the Rubber Duck”. In convoy! It’s perfect to be the iconic truck used in that movie since it is a rare truck and a specialty built unit also.

That front bumper is as crooked as a Washington DC politician. I wouldn't put a sunroof on the sleeper or any vehicle. Too much of a pain in the butt if they leak. (don't ask me how I know) Heck, I would not do a skylight on my house roof either (don't ask again). LOL! Another great save though, she's got lots of potential with some TLC. I was thinking Bug bomb, respirator, and maybe even a Tyvek suit when you go in and clean it out. Although she's not as bad inside as that Freightliner full of raccoon poop was.

So do you get the pump rebuilt (To BSpec) and use it on one of the others if there turns out to be more than just that wrong, or do you do it all and drop it in to the next one which has an engine needing work, but again with an OK bottom end? (Quickest and cheapest rebuild options.) Eventually putting a good rebuilt motor into one with an iffy bottom end, You have 2 of those so one has to be tackled.

The immediate plan is to send out 2 pumps for rebuild and order an inframe kit for whichever engine has the best bottom end. Which could be a 7fb I have that over heated. And then do a full rebuild on a 4mg and put it in Trisha and move Trisha’s engine to something else
