  1. I was hoping to see a 16v-71 w/ 4 turbos under the hood.
  2. I googled Autocar AP-19,it came up.Sorry,don`t know how to drag it here.
  3. There`sa walk-around video of this truck on youtube,it has the Barnhart paint.It had an automatic tranny.
  4. Wow,what is that Gerosa truck model? That beast is huge!
  5. Middlebury must be a prosperous town...
  6. I thought pressure always bleeds down after a few hours.
  7. The casting that positions the spring clips and center bolt is always wet and full of rust/scale.Were there originally rubber plugs or grommets to keep this bowl dry?
  8. I hope the mixer cab with no glass is kept covered,otherwise it`s being left to rot,not saved.
  9. Ok,thanks everyone...I`ll experiment.
  10. So there`s no point in ever using 5`th low or direct,right?5`th low is lower than 4`th Hi and 5`th direct is virtually the same as 4`th Hi.
  11. Ok,I`ll try that,thanks.Haven`t done a lot of splitting yet.
  12. When shifting from 3`rd to fourth gear,my tranny will not go into 4`th gear until the revs drop below 1000 rpms.I`m never pulling anything but if I was, wouldn`t that be lugging,and not good for the engine?This is a double overdrive transmission w/ a 5.78 rear ratio.
  13. Where do they put the air filters on those trucks?
  14. Is a small amount of movement considered normal/acceptable?
  15. Vlad,that`s some beautiful work,so far.
  16. Fabricate,tweak,modify as necessary...
  17. I agree with Bob,it looks like it`s already been restored.
  18. I meant a physical album,located in front of the truck,at shows like Macungie.
  19. I saw KRACKERJACK on Friday.Matt,you should assemble a photo album so people can see the insane amount of work and talent that went into that restoration.
  20. Actually,given the size of the show at Macungie,there`s not that much in the way of vendors selling parts,IMO.
  21. This is what I`m working on. IMG_0342.HEIC IMG_0293.HEIC
  22. You primed over rust? How long will that last?
