  1. Slower Lower Delaware. Gladys. It's all the same. You probably felt right at home. (except in Delaware they don't burn down the shed and the siding off the house when they smoke some ribs)
  2. That's OK we all cannot be perfect all of the time. I will be there.
  3. Depending on where those two in Philly are I could go take a look for whoever if you are interested.
  4. And I will bet you any amount of money that P will claim "Operator Error."
  5. Whether or not it was operator error or mechanical failure, it should be mentioned that this is the third (known) failure of this specific model of Pierce aerial.
  6. One of the most incredible inventions on the face of god's green earth. I have had mine since about four days after Macungie 2017 and it has become a way of life in my home. I have done brisket, ribs, tri-tip, ham shoulders for pulled pork, pork loins but what I enjoy the most and have down to a science are simple roast beef. You can smoke a nice 2-4 pound roast beef in about 3.5 hours. The one thing about the PBS you need to understand is that it is *specifically* designed around charcoal (they want you to use standard, plain Kingsford, but many folks are reporting success with Royal Oak. I plan on trying it soon.) Also, you need to use the specific amount of charcoal, or else the interior temperature may not get hot enough or too hot and overcook your food too fast or unevenly. If you are used to a wood smoker, you may not like the PBS. I highly recommend the Pit Barrel Smoker to anyone- from experienced to amateur smokers, especially the amateur guys. They have a fantastic website.
  7. Very finicky, overheats easily, high maintenance.
  8. Air-Cooled. Like a Deutz.
  9. Only one thing worse than a redhead is a redhead nurse.........Just ask me.
  10. Happy Burfday!!!! How old are you.........77? 78?
  11. Part of his recycling program- as he drinks em down, he smelts them down into the side panels.
  12. Tell your concrete guy you want your money back.
  13. Check your private messages.

  14. My apologies I just saw this. I will private message you joes mack.
  15. No, don't bring her to Macungie, are you nuts? Then we will have to give her some of the smoker barbeque schtuff at lunch time!!!
  16. Very cool. I appreciate guys that take the time to make videos like this.
  17. His face bounced off the hood of the squad car three or four times by accident.
  18. Hmmmm.... E7/460 18 speed and set up for heavy haul flatbed work. Been for sale for 3 or 4 years. Someone would have snapped that up a while ago unless there is something major league wrong.
  19. Sitehauling, does that Hayward tractor still exist? I swear I have seen it before.
  20. Belgium Cold Springs truck is an American Lafrance. 1935 +/- Thanks for sharing Vlad, very cool!! Hey any plans to come to the US anytime soon?
  21. Thank you for the info Jim!! Just got off the phone with my parts guy. That Fel-Pro number crosses to NAPA FPGFS7191S7 and is available, $70.00
  22. Gentlemen: Looking for parts sources for the EN11 (210 CID Continental) gasoline engine. Have one in a local firetruck that may be blown, an autopsy has not been performed but it is locked up tight. Anyone have any Fel-Pro or other gasket set numbers or other parts sources?
  23. Looking for a tire shop or mobile repair in or near Elkridge, Md. or on the way to Hershey, Pa. that works on split rims. A group of friends in Minneapolis has purchased a 1957 GM Transit Bus. They are coming out to get it in a month or two with plans to drive it to the bus show in Hershey, from there back to Minneapolis, but it needs new sneakers, which they have. They just need a vendor that isn't scared of split rims. Any ideas??
  24. There is a way to date a Briggs & Stratton engine with the SN but I will be damned if I can remember how.
  25. If you guys had FWD's, Oshkosh's or Walters you wouldn't be worried about silly trees or snow blocking the road...... LOL
