Thanks for the WEALTH of information! That's what posting at this forum is for. As it is, I'm gonna use the B23-7's as they are (I picked up a second one as well), and wait until their anachronicity bugs me to the point that I find a way to backdate them. It seems as though it would only be shell modifications, since the wheelbase is the same, and really all I'd need is the radiator plus a few extra louvers just behind the cab. Oops: on a Southern long-hood forward unit, those louvers would be just ahead of the cab! Perhaps someday soon an enterprising small manufacturer will develop a U23-B shell that just drops in place, and save me the work. Of course, I'd have to retain the high-nose... <br /> <br />And to think, I haven't even checked yet to see if Southern ever had U23-B's. I'm sure if they did, they had tall snoots...
