  2. Still paying Mr Hainey off on it. Paul
  3. Thanks, Like I said I never knew the true story on it. Paul
  4. I was stupid enough to think that being at an airport it was a refueler. I never knew the true story on it. Paul

    General old car, truck and some motorcycle parts and vehicles. Car Coral too. Now clothes and a bunch of non vehicle crap things are being sold. If it exists somebody has it there for sale there. I have 2 spots and always go with a trailer of old parts and come home with a trailer of entirely "new " old parts.
  6. Think after almost 90 years it would do better the double it's original cost. There was a few on the East end of Long Island, I couldn't give them away. Ended up pulling the T engines, the wheels and selling them and scrapping the rest. Paul
  7. Vlad drove to the Arctic Circle for a DMM.... We we get moved to Va there's a crap load of Rams, Puppies and Jimmies that can follow me home
  8. Truck is from Massapequa Long Island. The also have a 87 RD686 oil delivery for sale. I believe the B comes from Glen Head Coal Co. originally. Paul
  9. Aircraft refueler abandoned tanker in 1970 Flushing Airport, scrapped in 2004
  10. Pretty good shape compared to most. Paul

    First time in 25 years my spots in the Chocolate Field Annex was empty, just couldn't spare the time.
  13. Storm drain cleaners. Most of the DPW trucks were destroyed in the yards by Sandy or done in in the clean up after.
  14. Unless you are a winery, (tax exempt for 15 years) your farm taxes are based on the average home rate in the area. Been that way for about 6 or 7 years. My taxes for a 1929 3 bed room detached garage house in Oyster Bay Cove on 3/4 acre is $9100 a year, on a 1956 3 bedroom with 3 car garage / shop house in Shirley on 1 acre $8850 a year, a 7 taxable acres out of 14 acres farm with a 2 story 5 bedroom house and 2 barns in the Township of Riverhead $13900 a year and 309 acres in Fork Union Va. with 2 houses a barn and 40 x 80 shop is $2056 a year. Suffolk County apparently considers Winerys "cute" and a farm an environmental pit of excessive abuse of natural resources. On counsel woman wanted to know "what benefits do farms give to the public besides pollution" Guess she thinks the "magic food fairy" make food appear in the stores. Paul
  15. I run an 8 volt battery in both my '47 Ferguson and my '41 Chevy with no changes to the 6 volt charging system. An 8 volt will charge with a 6 volt charger, it was told to me by a generator / starter rebuilder the it is the amps not the volts that matter. As for jumping with a 12 volt it could hurt the 12. 6 volts have a higher ampere draw, hence the larger gauge cables and wiring. Paul
  16. And DOT is attempting to require every piece of farm equipment, be it powered or pulled to have a DOT#...which than requires a CDL , log books, limited hours of operation, tags and taxes. Course that will also allow Federal, State and Local DOT inspections. See an out of service tag on my hammer cutter, no DOT approved reflectors ya know.
  17. Sod comes under Farms Della Sod is rather up set. Apparently Wineries are much more needed than food. Paul

    Ebola

    Notice the closer to the elections the more the Ebola crisis "grows" Hmmmm may have to declare a National Health Crisis" and suspend the elections indefinably... Paul
  19. Truck specs are there but you have to select model (Titan, Granite etc) look for the "download for the catalog" The New MACK site is NOT sales friendly.
  20. They are all over and some are already elected. In Suffolk County where my farm is, they have passed a "Farm Bill". Sounds good right? L.I. farms peroduce 38% of N.Y.s agricultural products The bill limits the amount of water and fertilizer allowed to be used One hour for irritation per hour per 10 acres... per WEEK! Fertilizer not more than 2.4% nitrogen instead of the 25% needed for crops. Dust regulations for plowing and harvesting and proposed emission regs for farm equipment and irrigation pump engines. The last duck farm for Long Island Ducks, after 85 years was EPA regulated out of business AFTER spending 3 million to put in a NYS mandated water purification system.... because the duck farm is near a newly Federally Protected river. But the Wineries are supported by the Feds, State and County because they do not impact the environment like a farm. According to NYS farms destroy the land and pollute the air.(?) Luckly we have a few months left here and Virginia is somewhat more farmer friendly. We can't sell it as a farm, can't make it a winery so it's houses or a lnorthern example of Sherman's March to the Sea. Oh and the Big Case in N.Y.Supreme Court is if N.Y> should grant Chimpanzees the same rights as obama Humans. Thank god I'm one the downward side of the hill, because I feel pity for my Grand Children. Paul
  21. "Uh...I... uh...picked this peach off the pear tree when I got home though, nice peach ." Peach from a pear tree??

    God help the SOB that defaces the flag near me. Things seem to be stacked in favor of the po chllins and sammich makes. . . http://therighttobear.com/sunday-school-teacher-arrested-for-defending-himself-while-his-9-attackers-get-off-scot-free/
  23. Most are in DC
  24. A lot of people look for a broke spring or injector but forget valve float from a weak spring will do the same thing and depending on load can be intermittent. Just saying Paul
  25. Most times the cause is from misalignment. A few thou. mismatch on the Trans to Bell or the Bell to Block will put a large amount of stress to loosen and then sheer the bolts. Check the bell for true order take it to a good machine shop and have a clean up mill on both sides. I'd do the trans flange also. I'd also use aircraft grade bolts which have a high sheer strength and tighten them to specs. Might loosen the motor mounts on assemble to let the Engine and trans "Self Align" also. A belt and suspenders solution to cover the bases. Paul
