  1. I'm with you on that one! ...way better'n the woodpile...
  2. I've been getting "Double Clutch" regularly, but I could ask the same question of "Shifting Gears" magazine. I subscribed to that a couple of years ago and only got a couple of magazines. That's the one the Bighorn Dodge was on the cover of. Still get "Wheels of Time" and "Old Time Trucks", which is the best antique truck magazine. They will talk to you on the phone like regular folks. I've sent truck show pictures to the ATHS site and they put them online at their site but they don't give the sender any credit for the pictures. No big deal, I guess they're too big for that. http://www.oldtimetrucks.org/ott_magazine.htm
  3. oh...must not be the 1917 movie then...but it could involve bluegrass music.
  4. Just some 1917 movie about bluegrass music is all I saw
  5. yeah, it'd be a good idea to give it the sniff test before you eat there i'd say.
  6. Yep...used to be called "Jack's Place". Now it's called "Kuntry Kitchen". If I were trying to be cute and spell "country" with a "k" i'd probably have just left the "o" in there, but that's just me.
  7. Paul is shunning us again.
  8. Hmmmm...I must investigate all these things...
  9. hope it ain't the UPS man- milk man jr.
  10. I must be off now, so i'll leave you with this-
  11. that's what I like to think- size doesn't matter.
  12. Mine got to where it would not disengage after it came on (C15 Cat). At first it would stop if you cut the engine off and restart it, then you had to cut it off and let it sit a few minutes, then finally it just ran constantly. Not only noisy, but i've heard the fan running robs you of 50 horsepower! They replaced the switches but that didn't change anything, had to get a new fan hub-works fine now.
  13. Gotta take off to Illinois...tired already

  14. yeah, had a time finding 3 1/2" pipe and getting it bent, but got it all together. "Next" time, think i'll go with flex pipe!
  15. I even found a recipe for you that you might want to try-
  16. Yep, looks like Long Island Lumber in your picture all right! I drive for F.L.M.
  17. Anybody remember "King" syrup? Came in a red metal can with a picture of a lion on it and you had to pry the top off like a can of paint. It was really thick, and you had to dip it out with a spoon...and get yelled at for leaving a trail of it across the table. You never moved your pancakes close to the can, had to drip that trail...only kind of syrup I remember having when I was a youngster.
  18. they're trying to run me to death!

      sometimes I wish it would break down-this week i've been to been to Fredericksburg,Daytona Beach,back to King George,Punxatawny,Pa, North Jackson,Oh. to Petersburg,to Monroe,Va, and gotta leave tomorrow for Barrington Lake,Il.

  19. That's very serious. You were fortunate that they diagnosed it quickly! I worked with a driver at H.H.Moore trucking who was bitten in the heel by one. He didn't go to the doctor right away,thinking it was no big deal. He didn't even know what it was. By the time he did go and they figured out what it was-because the bite just wouldn't heal and kept getting worse- it was too late. He actually had to have his leg taken off just below the knee. Absolutely true.
  20. One of the first things I learned was how to rebuild starters-pretty easy putting new bushings,brushes,and a bendix in.But nobody does it now-like honing and rebuilding a wheel cylinder,you just go buy a rebuilt unit and slap it on.
  21. I need a few more 2x4's to finish it.

  22. Except as written in Isaiah 45:23, Romans 14:11, and Philippians 2:10.
  23. I noticed that immediately.
  24. I remember the old parts book. It just burns me up now to go to a parts store for a generic type item like a wheel stud or headlight and they want to know the make and model of the vehicle so they can look it up. Advance Auto Parts is the worst. I stopped at the one in Dillwyn one time to get a low beam headlight for the truck- a 2A1 I think it is, you can get them anywhere and they're all the same. First thing the guy wanted to know was the make and model of the vehicle. I didn't figure they listed Peterbilt parts anyway so I said "i'm building a spaceship in the backyard and I want to put headlights on it". He just stood there looking stupid and speechless. Then I started to leave and the woman in there went and got one off the shelf and put it on the counter. I paid for it and as I was leaving she said "good luck with your spaceship".
