  1. post some more after it rains. been pouring here all day.
  2. I like it!
  3. potential tire spokesman for a national ad campaign
  4. later that day, after spending $82.25 at the local car wash- all in quarters...
  5. First daylight pictures-looks great! Post some more right after you wash it.
  6. from 700WLW
  7. send me an appliction-or can I just do it online? I took a load of kyanite to Greensboro in a van today. My flatbed was supposed to be loaded when I got back, going up the road somewhere, but it wasn't. Maybe it got rained out...anyway, i'm back at home.
  8. sawzall + 12.50-38 Super Swampers = no problem have to change gear ratios though, I could only fit Q78's on the front-36''
  9. i'd say the trailer work justifies it's being at the shop, that's mainly what they use it for. Gotta get 'em in and out quick sometimes, and they have over a hundred trailers.
  10. yeah, you could donate to the "Other dog ain't got no money and ain't likely to git none no time soon" fund. Cash, checks, and money orders accepted.
  11. wow, ain't that a bitch-I didn't know they had crinimals in Harrisonburg, but I guess they're everywhere.
  12. 'nuff said
  13. I sold mine at a yard sale. Besides, Jo wants me to hang my clothes in the closet- like that makes any sense!
  14. It saves a lot of time because you can do a whole axle, sometimes both axles, at once instead of jacking up one side at a time. It'll free up a jack and stand or two if you need to jack up something else and when you're not using it you can lean tires against it or even use it like my old excercise bike, to hang clothes on.
  15. they use one similar to that, only a little smaller looking, a lot at the shop. They use it to lift the whole back of a trailer off the floor, and under the back of the frame on trucks when changing tires and lining brakes.
  16. the story continues...
  17. I got more-
  18. thanks, I needed a better picture of your sign for use in future photo projects.
  19. Yes, the R-model came out in '65, the RD in '71, RWs in '78. B-models were discontinued in '66. R's were made until 1989, but variations of them were made after that. The RB model didn't come out until 1989, and were made until the end of the century...they might still make them, that's as far as the book goes. The CH came out in '88. The RD had a higher weight rating. The Superliners had a different hood and huge grill to accomidate a bigger radiator to keep the V8s cool. from the Mack book, "Driven for a Century"
  20. gee...forgot what I was gonna say. Anyhow,
  21. didn't really sound logical to me either, but that's what he said. you know how truck driver stories are-except mine,they're all true.
  22. I probably wouldn't be here now if not for a block of wood. I was helping some friends put a clutch in a '66 Chevelle and was underneath taking the driveshaft out. When I got it loose I pried it forward to get it out of the yoke on the rearend and when I did the car rolled forward off the jacks and dropped down onto the big wooden blocks on each side under the frame. It had been supported by the 2 jacks, and was about an inch off the wood. When it dropped that inch with me under it I realized what might have been and how quickly stuff can happen, and how stupid I had been.
