  1. Extremely miniscule progress today, figured out the rear fender location. It's been way too cold in the shop to work on this thing.
  2. Anybody know what years the r models had half dogs on the doors? There aren't any on this truck.
  3. Drink a bottle of Dayquil and get to work. Actually I got up this morning feeling like crap too but it passed, wife went home sick this afternoon, Gawd I hate winter.
  4. Happy B-day Paul
  5. Just got a deposit looks like it's sold
  6. Got a call from Hagerty insurance today, they found the glass and they are having it shipped to a local glass shop for install. The claims guy has been really good to deal with.
  7. I was surprised that it was for sale for so long too. I think it was advertised only on the ATHS online ads so it might have gotten missed by a lot of people. This was the best truck by far for the price that i saw. It bobtailed 250 miles home and it didn't miss a beat.
  8. Yup it's just like driving a b model except there's leg room and headroom
  9. I think I'll leave it as a tractor for now.
  10. Those look like they are pretty nice no price though
  11. The 3000 was an S Malatesta truck and the R was Tom Amaducci's, we are trying to import all the NJ antiques to Mass.
  12. I've wanted an R model for a long time. Finally found the right one. '67 with a 673 turbo 250 horse and a duplex. Nice solid roadworthy truck. This is the last piece to round out the collection. Photos are a little dark.
  13. Just a shot in the dark but I'm looking for a new passenger side windshield for this Astro. Glass companies are having a tough time finding one but I don't think it's going to be something in an online inventory. There's probably some around but they are probably forgotten in the back of a warehouse somewhere.
  14. Kresge's Brockton Ma then and now. (pile of bricks were brought in for Detroit movie set, it's actually an empty lot now)
  15. Oh yeah it was quite the expensive clean up not to mention hundreds of gift certificates for free meals for everyone in the building.
  16. Back in high school when I was working at a York Steak house, my buddy Tom decided he didn't want to work there any more. Middle of Friday night dinner rush, full dining room and line out the door he pulled the Ansul system and came out front singing Let It Snow. That sure was a lot of fire retardant powder, management was not amused.
  17. Wouldn't even need to get off the couch if there was a fire, just reach over to the end table and shoot.
  18. sorry, brain fart, black button is tractor maxis red is trailer air
  19. Black button is trailer air. Pretty sure it is original.
  20. Yup, I think the owner had a dairy farm correct?
  21. They don't get much shorter then that! Good size for a little Cletrac
  22. Putting my Astro up for sale, need to free up some space and I want to get an R model. 1978 8v92 completely new reyco suspension,lots of new airlines 9 speed, Located just south of Boston Asking $6800
