  1. THANK YOU for your service Sir
  2. picture perfect; the tattoos just ruined the picture ( my thoughts only) one - two maybe ,now if she can drive it also ;;i'm sold.
  3. wait till she turns around then . OH polish i'm thinking Polish LOL , wife checked it out ; doesn't see connection between pictures and mack trucks. i reassured her :: the phrase "built like a Mack truck " .. really stacked and fine chassis
  4. do what ever time; interest and $$$$ allow. either way in a round about way you will be saving history or rat rod will spark an interest in some one else seeing it to find more history to save.
  5. my Father went and signed up; my grandfather had him pulled out =he was needed on the farm . three uncles were already enlisted. two of which were badly scared by sharpnel ; one received purple Heart =survived as a P O W . don't think there would be too many older generation that would deal with this mess. tragic for them was the beatles and long hair.
  6. same story here. the land my uncle owned in center of small farm town that as kids we walked and camped on was sold to developer who now has major mall with stores and still developing, SO SAD
  7. after all the parades; hot dogs and hamburgers ; a moment taken for remembrance of those who gave us the opportunity for celebration. NOT from todays cluster f--k world . days gone by. not dismissing ALL veterans ; memorial day for glancing at the 300K + white crosses at Arlington and else where. THANK YOU to ALL . remember the doughboys back then are the ones who coined the phrase that ac mack looks like a bulldog . who knows what would have been on the hood today.
  8. broken clamp, cracked hose air system. higher gears possibly due to engine under load. idle- pressures aren't high enough.
  9. they must be the new technology style emergency boat floatation devices ☺️

  11. not only is it turning out to be a work of art; the fact you are doing it to a B73/L cab makes it even more impressive. B73/75 grilles just have "the look" . excellent job . looking forward to the day of seeing it close up
  12. black and white TV, with all the shoot outs that took place on the westerns then we never considered it as violence unlike today. less us not forget the comedy shows, they were funny. adlibs and no four letter words. Red Skelton is the best. with memorial day approaching; listen to Red Skelton reciting the Pledge of Allegiance
  13. when the picture is that perfect; consider an attitude may go with it.. "i got it you want it,don't touch" .. now if she can weld !!!! . jeans/tee shirt 😊
  14. worse then the lost dentures ; it the loss of "where's the manual "; what am i suppose to do " . younger days it was called what wet dreams are made of . in the "golden yrs" the wet dreams are solved by depends LOL 😁 nice Mack
  15. even in the day brand new they were costly compared to other toys. i had a B tandem with custom built chrome tanker. chassis was yellow/green. had chance to buy two of them. $1500.oo for two back then was alot of $$$ for young guy raising a family. sure wish i bought them both today.
  16. found them; but can they drive a mack..LOL personal opinion only. i like a good chassis in jeans, white tee ;long dark hair under baseball hat riding on back seat of a harley. on the bike usually has a great personality also.just sayin
  17. another reason the golden years aren't great at all ..πŸ˜‚
  18. i knew a girl got two implants; they sure looked nice' don't know what they cost her ;; i'm sorry couldn't help my self. LOL
  19. that's why i don't carry a gun; some unfortunate bast----d might make a comment about the "golden years" being so great.
  20. none of it is trivial stuff . it's the little known history that keeps the mental status going along with the hands on mechanical knowledge, its all good.
  21. I would have gladly offered my assistance today; have another project which took priority; have big hole in house wall changing over AC units. some one mounted a window unit in the wall. major changes to install new wall unit.
  22. so many things in life we all take for granted, same as the history behind the Mack bulldog . I know the bulldog changed it's appearance ; never knew who or why it was done. todays world change is usually done to make a product cheaper. the Bulldog changes possibly the squared off profile looks bold ??
  23. do you remember seeing the blue R700 western at the factory on pines bridge in beacon falls ct
  24. bulldog on the front of my '77 ford had a winter hat made to keep his ears warm .
  25. now we all know it's NOT the best you can do ;;; it's what you could do on last minute noticeπŸ˜†. dog was probably upset he didn't have time to prep for photo session and wouldn't smile THAT's why you didn't take photo of his face 😁😁 LOL
