  1. same here.I'm just joking,but i've heard rumors of those places
  2. saw this at the Wilco in Salisbury N.C. yesterday. Not the best picture,but a sharp looking truck!
  3. That's the place I was trying to think of. I used to subscribe to 4Wheeler magazine when I was mud bogging and they had ads in there all the time. My uncle had one that looked like the red one,with the sloped hood, back in the 60's-early 70's. It was olive drab colored. He was in the National Guard for years and I remember he gave $500 for it at the time, and it would go pretty much anywhere.
  4. Send the Terminator...
  5. I don't...mine's full of flash dat beaver and rate them racks
  6. time to go to work...get home Saturday,leave Sunday...waah,waah,waah!

  7. well said! http://www.thedieselgypsy.com/TRUCKING%20STORIES%202.htm here's some good ones.
  8. Nikki will swing that sledge hammer for you-lure her with Jack Link's jerky. She's probably too old to fall for this, but when all my kids were small I needed some gravel in my driveway where I parked the truck. I ordered one big 24 ton boulder because it was cheaper and had it unloaded in the driveway. Then I gave all the kids a toy hammer and told them "enjoy your hammers-you can do whatever you want with them except beat on that big boulder in the driveway-I must be off now". When I got back there was nothing but a big pile of gravel where the boulder was.
  9. well, ,click on the smiley face at the top, ,and the emoticons should appear on the right of your post.
  10. job related?..no,Iknow,I know- you're engaged to the redhead in the picture!..got one in the oven there,eh?
  11. Old Bill sent me this hand carved Peterbilt that used to hang on his wall,along with this sign from Australia. I told him not to send me anything,but... I'm gonna hang it on the wall too,but I had to glue one of the stacks back on that got broken off during shipment.
  12. Actually I had just returned from delivering a van load of shavings (bagged,on pallets-not loose in the van like a load of chips) in Eighty Four,Pa. I came home empty because the return load back to Salem,Va. they had been promised had been shipped the day before (imagine that-some broker telling false doctrine!) and we had loads sitting on the yard. Might have been a good thing,since it was raining and the trailer leaked so bad I probably would have been up inside the van tarping whatever the load was. I got back to the shop and my flatbed was loaded with pipes going to New Jersey...so I went home. Unloaded the pipes on the ground Thursday morning and went to Fremont,Oh. with a load of kyanite and loaded 2 coils in Sharon yesterday going to Greenville,S.C. So there! Passed this odd looking unit on rt. 60 in Pa. yesterday-think it might be Freightrain but i'm not sure-along with a convoy of old cars and hot rods. Must have been going to a car show this weekend.
  13. had to be the bulldog,a b-model's not big enough for people to do much in.

    Crows

    saw these crows at the shop yesterday...I threw a cracker out the window at them.
  15. This B-61 (either a 1957 or 1959,I forgot) is the first diesel truck Herbert Jamerson bought for Jamerson Brothers Trucking in Appomattox,Va. G.H. Jamerson, one of Herbert's sons, said he put many miles on it himself and said he used to leave at lunchtime on Sunday to deliver lumber in Charleston,W.V. on Monday. Now it takes about 4 1/2 hrs. to get to Charleston. They had a tag axle installed at one time and later removed it. G.H. said he hopes to restore it for himself some day. He also said if he pulled it ten feet right now it would start.
  16. They were right on 158 a little ways below the Sheetz store I believe. They'd be on your left headed towards Winston-Salem,by the edge of some woods. Easier to see going towards Reidsville,but they're not far past the stoplight at Sheetz best I can recall. There's an old International 2 ton there too backed up into the woods-or it was.I hope they weren't loaded up to be junked as they looked to be in good shape,best I could tell just passing by.
  17. I'm a couple hours up 501...maybe less. Know it would be if it weren't for 10,000 stoplights.
  18. sunnuva!..as soon as I read the title I knew I was gonna say that, but you beat me to it!
  19. Yeah, I like the old pictures too. Lots here- http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/gruin.htm You could browse Hank's all day and not look at all his pictures!
