Cool little trucks from the past...

[Becker]

Sears had a bunch of cool little Hydramaster CDS units mounted in Chevy mini vans.

In Spokane Sear mounted Amber flashing lights on the roof...

Every once in a long while I see one for sale here or there beat to hell and all used up.

Wonder what Rick at American Restoration would want to make on just like new again?

a CDS off a V6? Did this really happen?

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Lots of CDS type units were installed in Astros with V6 engines (4.3)

Very good platform.

I cleaned with a 93 Ford six with a CDS in it for years.

Machine ran alright but the van was a pos.

It would be great to see something like that again, maybe one of the pto manufacturers would make a differential style driveshaft to work with the transit connect?

We had an older Astro with a Hydramaster CDS in it for a long time until the truck disintegrated around the machine. In fact, the "old faithful" of our current fleet is an 89' Chevy van with a CDS in it. Still going strong as the overflow truck logging about 6-8 hrs a week.
