It's paid for and transferred to me. Before the week of rain I had it tented and all the bee nests killed. So I can remove the house counter weight and boom to move it as soon as it dries up to work on it. As for owning all the toys Jim, I bought a lot of machines and tools when Grumman Aerospace and Fairchild-Republic Aircraft companies closed up on the Island. Most were bought by the pound. Paul

The 3-D printers and Vector scan systems are coming very affordable. A basic 3-D is about $700 to $1000. The one big enough to do the steering wheel is down to $3900 to $4200. Even Radio Shack sells the basic 3-D and supplies now. When we get settled in Va. I'll purchase a system that can do a 24 x 24 cube size part. I already own a Vector machine that I use with my CNC Profile Mill, Plasma cutter and Tubing Bender so it's basically a software up grade. Paul

I will tell you one thing I'm looking to try for the steering wheel is to scan the dimensions from a relatively intact wheel to a CAD program and have the parts 3-D printed with a Cross Linked Palomar Resin. I want to do it in two halves to fit over the wire and bond them together with Master Bond Structural Aerospace Epoxy that is designed to bond metal and fiber reinforced composites air frame assemblies together. The material CLP resin has the feel and look to the original MACK molded hard rubber. This was developed for the Rutun- Scaled Composites all composite Triumph business jet The 3-D printing works very well but is some what costly. I've had a few things made. The inside cab pieces for my B model air intake cost me $120 and almost $250 to have one AC head light mount scanned and printed so I can have a mold made to cast them. Paul

What happened to Hillary?? Bill leave a bad taste in her mouth?

Act now and we will send our highly trained installation tech, a bottle of Headlite Fluid and A Power Band ALL at no extra charge!!!

Cattle Corn or Field Corn. Good to make feed or for Corn Liquor. A lot different than Sweet Corn for people.

New York changed from tranferable registrations to Titles about the mid 70's so yours should be pre title which makes it easier For Pre Tile vehicles, go to the NYDMV with ALL the paper work that you have, a NYDMV Bill of Sale and NYDMV Sale Tax form, with you cousins signature and a clear tracing of the VIN. ( I also would also just to be on the safe side bring a Notarized affidavit that all of HIS paperwork was destroyed by Sandy ) If all is in order NYDMV will issue a 6 or 12 month Non Transferable Registration for it. When the registration comes up for renewal and nothing indicating a stolen vehicle or a lien has appeared in the initial period, the NYDMV will issue a transferable registration. I did this with a few vehicles over the past 10 years. Paul

With the EPA subsidies for Ethanol and Bio -Fuels the Fed will give an "EPA/USDA Grant" of 75 to 100% for updating your equipment, as long as you have a minimum of 75 Acres and promise that 60% of your acreage is slated for Bio Fuel production. Barring un-forseen "natural or man made disasters". They make it extremely profitable to grow cattle corn and sugar beets for "fuel". The Feds will subsidize most costs of growing, harvesting and transporting the crops. Paul

Thanks for the wheel info. I have been to a company that does resin casting for Victorian Era Home details and used centrifugal set up to help the flow of the material. I never thought of resin for the restoration of the wheels. Thank him for the idea. Paul

Doug Manning has a 413 powered R-400, a very interesting unit. Paul

Very interesting info. I recall a mechanic explaining about the Bull Dog staying on the MACKs as a handle. I recall their brake replacement procedure on the Package Trucks, all as assemblies from backing plates to drums. Very Smart way to do it. Paul

The work on the radiator cap is extremely well done. Did he do the wheel himself? If so what did he use fro the wheel it self? Mine are all a rubber compound over canvas and wire and ALL need to be restored. I'm jealous of his perfect hood. I need 5 AC and 1 AC-6 hoods. I've gotten the original plans from the U.S. Patent Office to make them. Another member on here is getting geared up make cab panels for the early AC's Paul

I want a RonCo Shifter Monkey

With the Cirkle-Jrk (patent pending) add in reverse gearz kit consisting of 1091 & 1/2 gears and 100 ounces of Super Glue, you will get E Z installed and ultra ultra ultra ultra deep reverse gear. A proud product of Spanky & Alfa LTD.

Closer to the elections the greater the "panic hype" will get.

Can't put a price on memories. Paul

Four to pull and two for added braking I believe. Impressive! Wonder if it came from a closed mine in the States. Paul

More effective. Just what you'd expect from the "clacker" in the White House

Nice!! Looks right from here. Paul

turn signals, hi lo lights,wipers, cruise control on steering column.

Feel safer yet? President Barack Obama promised Thursday that his administration and his Ebola Czar plan to respond "in an extremely more aggressive way" to Ebola outbreaks, including having the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, FEMA and Homeland Security send in "SWAT teams" when new cases are diagnosed. "We are taking this very seriously at the highest levels of government," Obama said Thursday, after it was announced that another nurse from Dallas, who treated Ebola victim Thomas Eric Duncan, had tested positive for the deadly disease, reports Politico. The president, encouraging the public not to panic over the new cases of Ebola in the United States, reminded Americans that the disease is only contracted through direct contact with the bodily fluids of an infected person. "Here's what we know about Ebola: It's not airborne," he said. He pointed out that he visited Atlanta and hugged, kissed, and shook hands with nurses who had been working at Emory University Hospital, where three other Ebola patients have been treated, with two having been released after they recovered. SWAT TEAMS???

Older school bus nose would work, check some bus garages. Paul

ditto.

I've been there when it was all mud, now that it's all mostly paved it takes the adventure out of it. We almost packed it in with the Pa temporary sales tax number but it works out okay. I get there generally early on Wednesday and am probably one of the last to leave. I have a long term seller next to me, been there about 10 years less than me. He comes with a 2 axle land scaper trailer loaded with carded hard ware and electrical stuff. Gets 2 bucks for all you can hold in one hand. Always goes home empty. We both generallycruise through the Chocolate and Green fields on Sunday buying stock people don't want to haul home and pick through the abandoned leavings. Last year got a NOS pair of 55/56 Olds front fenders and a couple of hundred engine gasket sets. Paul

Anybody know what the other 2 tankers that were abandoned there? One was near to the Brockway and the other was 6 wheeler in the Piper hanger.
