  1. First truck I drove was a 1974 4070A Transtar.
  2. I got the mixer running again today. Best I can figure, first time in 6 months! Took a while to get it going, I jumped it with a Ford Ranger pickup. I used silicone spray, and Randy was right, it worked great. I dumped 14,000 gallons of water out of the drum- shoulda stocked it with catfish and left it-then I made 3 or 4 laps around the shop. I was going to take it around the Concord loop, but there's just too much traffic today. Let it run about 30-45 minutes I guess, and i'm not gonna let it go so long again,i'll try to start it every week or so from now on.
  3. I just checked the pictures, they're great. Excellent job taking pictures of things! I liked the orange and black B-model, not fancied up, just looks good. And the big Diamond T,and the Cannonball GMCs. I just have one question-"I'm not takin' any pitchers of any Petes!"- so what the hell is this?
  4. I take lots of pictures of things and i've found the Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries to be the best. I was going to get Duracells for my camera and the camera guy suggested the energizers,said they lasted longer than Duracells. I took well over 300 hundred pictures on the Washington trip a few years ago and never put new batteries in,and they'd been in the camera a while to begin with. Energizer. Lithium. Batteries.
  5. crap...the dreaded double reply! I'll delete this one and write something else-pay no attention to this post.
  6. Saw this in the truck paper, http://www.auctiontime.com/OnlineAuctions/Details.aspx?OHID=1613005&lp=trk&bcatid=27&
  7. Gee...wish I could have gone. Just got home last night, ran 2 loads of lumber to Pa. and one to Ohio this week and loaded steel in Sharon,Pa. back to Lynchburg each time. Would have got to meet Paul- Rob, take a picture of Paul for us. Paul, take a picture of Rob for us and end the mystery. Some people feel that his profile picture is not actually him. You guys have a nice weekend,i'll be in Gladys grilling stuff.
  8. "Jerry"- you are a very brave man. Or perhaps you were forced to do that against your will,eh? I know of a great attorney in Daingerfield, Texas.
  9. I'm an ATHS member and usually get to a couple of shows every year, but I don't even go to the ATHS website anymore-what a bunch of pricks!..i'll just lurk about over here on BMT.
  10. I saw a big Mack manure spreader.
  11. Off to New Castle,Pa. with treated lumber. Got a stop-off in Bentleyville to drop off 2 fork extensions,so by the time I drop them off all the Pa. scales should be open.

      thank you...thank you very much

  12. Actually I sleep better in that than I do at home. That's why i'm on BMT at 2 or 3 in the morning a lot of times.
  13. It's OK Randy, we understand.
  14. This post was started so long ago I just wonder what kind of pictures I might have posted-here's an Oklahoma rerun anyway. Mike always seemed to like it. I like it too, never deleted it,eh?
  15. That is correct Mark. I bought the whole set a few years ago and there was 8 volumes at the time, but I know there's at least one new volume since then.
  16. one more. You can still borrow the book if you want of course.
  17. I'll take the challenge- I left these pretty big so i'll just post a couple at a time.
  18. I'd be glad to, but I probably won't make it to South Bend. It's still a possibility, but not likely.
  19. Yep, first time i'd seen them around these parts. This truck came north on I-79 and was getting on 70 west at Washington, Pa. when I took this picture.
  20. I remember them too, but I don't have any pictures. There is an article about them and a few photos in the "Trucking Pioneers" book 5, that I have. If you don't have those books I could send it to you to look at and copy,and you could send it back. My scanner doesn't work anymore,I can only take pictures of pictures I'll take a picture of the article if you want,and if you want the book i'll be glad to loan it to you.
  21. Sorry...I can't come up with anything.
