    That's a clean R! So they were using a twin-stick in 1985? Is the 300+ a Maxidyne motor?

    Me too. My project is dragging and it makes me feel like I'm not the only one.

    You and me both...I think back to all the cool old trucks I saw and would really like to have a photo of them now. Back then you actually had to buy film and pay to have it processed. These phones and computers are just too nice.

    Post some photos of that project! We all like to see what's up and maybe learn a thing or two.

    They sent me the line sheet but the print copy is terrible...they said some of their originals are not in good enough shape to read a lot of the info.

    My lower pads are stamped 10QK36A-5 but when I look up the dimensions online it comes up as a 10QK36B. They are available from PAI, Euclid, Atro, etc. I may have to use the buttons & springs because the hole in the top leaf spring is too small to use the rubber insulators in the upper position (hole in bottom leaf spring is larger). My arrangement # is 3QKA532AP15; I sent it to Barry at Watts and he said they don't have any of those drawings. I got a schematic of that arrg. number from the Mack museum but there are no part numbers on it. I googled the numbers you all gave me above and none of them come up as available.

    Or a chrome bumper dragging the asphalt.

    Yes, mine's a 34,000....SWDL56. I may buy a rubber pad and see if it fits.

    Rolled it back onto its wheels.

    I used the scaler to get the heavy rust off my parts; when the weather is decent I'll get them sandblasted. These go on top of the leaf springs, under the axles. I got the drawings from the Mack museum and they call them "buttons" but there's no part number on the drawing. They have little coil springs inside them to keep them from dancing around but as you can see the springs will have to be replaced. I've seen other camelbacks that have rubber insulators in place of these...if anybody knows if I can replace these with the rubber insulators let me know.

    I also cleaned up and painted the shields from inside the rear brake drums; I guess in case a wheel seal leaks they redirect the oil away from the shoes.

    I cleaned up the backing plates and sprayed them with Rustoleum since they won't show. Now I'm trying to get the shoes relined...that may involve shipping them to another state.

    Would that happen even if the owner kept up the SCA treatment?

    They have a model of Jerry Howard's Autocar...it's a beautiful truck. He hosts the White show in Fairborn Ohio as reported by eddeere in September. https://www.firereplicas.com/1954-autocar-dc-75t-jerry-howards-midnite/

    And some front fenders to keep rocks out of the passengers' faces.

    One thing I notice different between the orange one and the red/white one is the higher cab/hood mounting on the orange one. Is that for specific engines (like a V8)?
  21. h67st
    Man, what a hassle! I wish I knew something about these to help you out.
  22. h67st
    You see, officer, my fuel is red because the bottom of the fuel tank is rusty.
  23. h67st
    You mean a sub like the Navy or a sub like with pastrami and cheese on it?
  24. h67st
    One of the best sounds in the world!! I like Mack engines better but a 2 cycle sounds cooler.

    The rotochambers I've seen are in the $600 to $900 range. I'll have to figure something out on my truck because my old ones are rusted badly. They mount between the frame rail and tire so too snug for most chambers. Rob is switching his to a smaller chamber, a 16 or 24 I believe.
