    Bob, For shoes, check with the city/county/state police to see where they get theirs.. We have a store here in the Greenville SC area which specializes it construction work wear and they stock a lot of apparel for the police and EMT people. A few years ago I bought a pair of police issue permanent shine black oxfords from them. And I wear a size 14D so not easy to find!!

    Harry I think (??) that this is the truck you are asking about??

    Bob, You are right about the 1965 date.. That is when the child psychologists said that parents were to "Talk" to their children not "whup their butts".. Now we are into several generations of this and these people have no respect for authority period.

    Agree it is the second after the 59 & 60 F1000's

    TJC When you hover your mouse over the picture before you click to enlarge the number shows up in the lower left corner.

    I know the man who owns the long legged Green Diamond REO and just sent him an email with a link to your pictures.

    Thanks for the pictures..

    Tom Thanks much for all the pictures.. I appreciate your efforts as I know it takes a lot of time to build an album like that!!

    Your picture of trucks arriving Saturday morning does not surprise me.. Last year about 150 trucks arrived on Sat AM!! That is when they filled the field behind to restroom building.

    I am sorry that I felt I could not afford the fuel to go up this year!! I have missed visiting with ya'll.. Have you heard what the total truck count was???

    Is Doug Fetterley, upstate NY, still making the SS/Chrome ones??

    What a wonderful survivor!!! That truck looks great to refurbish mechanistically to make it driveable, from the trailer to the show parking spot, and add some Linseed oil or clear coat to the patina and show it as is. Just trailer it to shows and do not worry about putting it on the road.

    V F Jeanswear Logistics / Wrangler Blue Jeans trucking fleet went all White in the late 90's from the Blue and Gold scheme that Dale Earnhart's race team publicity department designed and made famous.

    I do NOT think Brad and his show are associated with the ATHS Virginia Carolina chapter anymore although he should be able to get it listed?? Just looked the Virginia Carolina chapter itself is not even listed in the Wheels of Time so it must have gone belly up!!
  16. Brocky
    Nothing definitive??? Chapter Pres Brad Osteen usually picks it on Farcebook before I get an Email..
  17. Brocky
    I am hoping he has it done by Labor Day so he can bring it to either the Dacusville SC and/or Lincolnton NC shows
  18. Brocky
    Possibly??? But you never know!!! My 49 Diamond T 201 would go for about $50K (+/-) But last fall one went at the Hershey Auction for $147K!!! All depends on how bad someone wants it!!

    Both my wife and I were able to work to Social Securities full age. Although we only had less than 15 years in both a company retirement plan and our 401's we have enough coming in to keep us comfortable as everything is paid for. BUT, I am NOT shelling out a $1000 just for fuel to go to Macungie. Somehow I get the feeling that a recession is still ahead of us!!!

    That PTO mounted in the frame rails is actually a transfer case (I think??) It is the way most fire trucks power their pump.
  21. Brocky
    It is possible that the engine does NOT have that many hours as the pumping unit MAY have had it's own engine for pumping power???? Does the tach have an hour meter???
  22. Brocky
    I did not realize the C model is yours also!! I was parked near you with the Little Diamond T 201 pick up.. We will have to meet face to face one day at one of these shows..
  23. Brocky
    Vlad, If it was originally a tractor it might well have lighter suspension and the Oil Field pump just overloaded the $h!t out of it!!!!
  24. Brocky
    That last picture looks like it was taken when the ATHS WNC chapter was at the Arden WNC Ag Center???
  25. Brocky
    Vlad Thanks for posting those pictures and the account of getting this truck.. Your posts are always interesting.
