  1. Green Dash and David both got it. Clint Eastwood in 1946 or '47 (16 or 17 years old) in his T bucket with a 1939 Ford V-8 in a Model A chassis he "found in a vacant lot"
  2. no one mentioned yet
  3. Do you know me..................................................
  4. IThere is no chassis as such, it has a sub frame that carries the I.H axles and power pack. The balance it basic Freuhauf trailer.

  5. Very nice memories! Still have the trailer hooked to the COE?
  6. They used the basicly complete R-190 175" chassis with an almost mid mounted Cummins NHH-220 for power on the later ones. This has only a sub frame
  7. Fresh cut grass, burning leaves and charcoal smoke are a few of the best smells on earth in my opinion.
  8. What we have at Camp Hero in Montauk Point is an ex NORAD/DEW Line Array, with the Hercles / Nike-Ajas radar dome. Last 3 pics are emplacements for WWII 16inch Naval guns http://s79.photobucket.com/user/41chevy-photo/library/CAMP%20%20HERO?sort=3&page=1
  9. One important note. The system run up to 720 PSI. If you are going to get into it. Key off pump the brake pedal 20 to 25 times to dump the pressure in the system.
  10. 4th generation.
  11. Bar fights are not enough??????
  12. Ho If other companies did that it would help. Wait to speed limiters start and the mileage pay goes down for the per mile drivers
  13. I'd sure as hell like to meet one that's alive or a legal citizen. His latest thing is the illegals who got amnesty and worked off the books for years can now show proof of working off the books and get an Earned Wage Tax refund for every year they worked illegally off the books. No less than $2000 and no more the $4000 refund for each year. . .up to ten years of rewards for not being legal.
  14. Seems the secondary pump is never checked for fluid on these systems. Yeah, most parts for the Hydro-Boost systems are pricey. I just did an Accumulator for one, only the leg to the knee costly .
  15. Scrapco . . .don't look good for the goodies there.
  16. Makes no sense to me either.
  17. Says it all.
  18. If you can find it in OZ this tells it pretty much as it was. Paul
  19. I built my 2 drip oil heaters, best thing I ever did. They put out a ton of heat for no money.
  20. Regulations passed by politicians with no concept of reality.Their world is the Beltway. Cold? turn up the thermostat, hungry? call the take out place. Wake up cold and hungry and you attitude will surely change pretty F'in quick!! My house in Oyster Bay and Riverhead both have fireplaces converted to Franklin stoves, my shop is heated by a pair of Drip Oil heaters, The house in Va has 4 fireplaces when the shop is finished it will have the Drip Oil heaters form here and a potbelly stove in the "office/ MACK Cave". In Riverhead last fall I made a donation to the village F.D.s to clear burn my fields. The local F.D.s used it a brush fire practice to the annoyance of a few neighbors. Wish I could have canned the smell of burning leaves.
  21. EPA’s Ban On Wood Burning Stoves Just Days From Taking Effect NY Times 2-28-2015 The Environmental Protection Agency is set to finalize a set of regulations in February that critics say will effectively ban production of 80 percent of the wood- and pellet-burning stoves in America. The EPA had published a set of proposed regulations more than a year ago, and since then had accepted public comments. But the regulations already are having an impact. An advertisement for the Central Boiler Company says that company’s classic outdoor wood furnaces will be outlawed by the new regulations and will not be available later this spring. The EPA has argued that the new regulations would improve air quality. The regulations require new stoves to burn up to 70 percent cleaner. “Residential wood smoke causes many counties in the U.S. to either exceed the EPA’s health-based national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for fine particles or places them on the cusp of exceeding those standards,” the EPA previously said. “To the degree that older, higher emitting, less efficient wood heaters are replaced by newer heaters that meet the requirements of this rule, or better, the emissions would be reduced, the efficiencies would be increased and fewer health impacts should occur.” It would be the first new standards on stoves since the 1980s Critics say it is government overreach lacking common sense – and note that people have heated their home with wood for thousands of years. “It seems that even wood isn’t green or renewable enough anymore,” columnist Larry Bell wrote onForbes.com “… [it’s] the oldest heating method known to mankind and mainstay of rural homes and many of our nation’s poorest residents. The agency’s stringent one-size-fits-all rules apply equally to heavily air-polluted cities and far cleaner plus typically colder off-grid wilderness areas such as large regions of Alaska and the American West.” About 12 percent of all homes rely primarily on wood, Bell said, quoting census data. The regulations won’t force Americans to get rid of their old stoves, but the regulations will ban the resell and the trading in of those stoves. Local and State Governments Ban Wood Burning Some local governments are going even farther than the EPA. The Puget Sound Clean Air Agency recently banned wood burning in King County (Seattle) for several days because of stagnant weather conditions. The Seattle Times reported that persons who violate the ban could face a $1,000 fine. Elsewhere, the Utah Department of Environmental Quality has proposed a ban on all coal, pellet and wood burning between November 1 and March 15 for several counties around Salt Lake City. All coal and wood burning would be illegal during that period in Salt Lake, Box Elder, Cache, Davis, Utah, Tooele Utah and Weber counties in the proposal. The Deseret Newsreported. The News called the ban the nation’s toughest wood-burning ban. “A full ban includes even those who have invested thousands of dollars upgrading their wood stoves to EPA-compliant models that burn more cleanly.”
  22. Now that is a mail box holder!!! Better than my piddly little Caterpillar..
  23. Small 4 block area, almost the entire area looked like Berlin after WWII.
