  1. Whats the cause? Paper work, lack of parts and assemblies or just indifference?
  2. Send to you! Thanks!!
  3. Mounted on the side of the nose makes them look more planned than just stuck on.
  4. I bought a '69 in 1972 from Bayside Chrysler Plymouth. 440 single 4 barrel, Torgueflight with power brakes, bench seat and column shifter, White with a medium Blue vinyl interior. Got it for the big sum of $1775.00 with 15000 miles on it because nobody wanted it. Raced it for a few years and put it in the garage until 2 years ago. Mileage now is almost 18,000. Got 3 other Mopars going on auction too, all low miles but all raced.
  5. I may, if I do you get them. Paul
  6. While going through 16 file cabinets of literature to get ready for an auction of that , some specialty automotive tools and a few Mopars, I came across these. Saw the '64 Ford and immediately thought of Larry . Times sure changed my Road Runner should get between $130,000 between $170,000.
  7. Only because cesspools can't too tall.
  8. Very nice , good luck with it Bob! I see that it's got the Swift Transport spec Tall Extra Windshield in it. Paul
  9. You're right. Since they came to Israel as knocked down trucks the visors could be from ?? I never really paid attention to them. Interesting.
  10. Yes I did, but since my Photo Bucket issues, I lost ove15 years of photos and really no longer have many pics on line any more. מפעלי ים המלח‎ translates to the Dead Sea Works, who is the world's seventh largest producer and supplier of potash products, and a wide range of chemical products, including magnesium chloride, industrial salts, de-icers, bath salts, table salt and raw materials for the cosmetic industry from their mines and processing plants on the Dead Sea.
  11. Israeli Superliners at rest. Like the headlight treatment.
  12. Grocery chain Kroger has policy that fines suppliers $500 for deliveries that are two or more days late to any of the company’s 42 warehouses. They started that in October of 2017. Out of stock items cost retailers big time. According to the Harvard Business Review, when a customer finds that a desired item is out of stock, 21% — 43% of shoppers will leave the store to buy the item elsewhere. These shoppers cost retailers losses of as much as 10% of sales. The new fine is intended to help Kroger recover some of these lost sales costs. Out of stock items cost retailers big time. According to the Harvard Business Review, when a customer finds that a desired item is out of stock, 21% — 43% of shoppers will leave the store to buy the item elsewhere Data shows that grocers lose $75 billion a year in sales when products aren’t in stock or otherwise can’t be sold.
  13. Seems Obama and most all the rest use the George Orwell theory that "all are created equal, but some are more equal than others"
  14. My wife is getting Chemo and pin point radiation for brain cancer for the past year. BC/BS would only pay 20%. I now pay it all my self F'k Obama and his lies. If we were some crap from a third world country there would be a line offering to pay. I'll say what most think but won't say. Obama did his level best to make us into a 3rd world sh!t hole with his hatred of whites and non Islamic's. His minions like Polosi, Warren, Schummer, Schiff, Waters, Bluminthal and all still trying to finish the job.
  15. Has not been used since 2010 , when Obama told the media all about it and what was there. You can now take a guided tour and actually stay there in one of the suites.
  16. So the governor of Washington state wants to tax every thing that burns from wood to natural gas and all in between. Why? "to save the children" (WTF?) Starting to look like the Califruits are migration north. Willie Sutton, who robbed banks because “that’s where the money is,” would be proud, seems to be the Democrats M.O.. Whatever the spending preferences for the revenues, interest-group competition would yield quickly to ordinary pork-barrel politics. With no prospect of environmental improvement and little of real beneficial spending. Why not a tax on zucchini or garlic? They create gas. A Washington State Carbon Tax: All Pain, No Gain. by Benjamin Zycher February 1, 2018 Washington Governor Jay Inslee speaks at the "March for Science" in Seattle, Wash. (Reuters photo: David Ryder) Even with unrealistically positive assumptions, the benefits would be minuscule. With respect to Washington governor Jay Inslee’s renewed proposal for a “carbon” tax on that state’s greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions, a number to keep closely in mind is: 2/1000 of a degree. That would be the global temperature effect in the year 2100 if Washington were to reduce its GHG emissions to zero immediately. That figure comes from the Environmental Protection Agency’s climate model, under a set of assumptions that exaggerate the effects of emissions reductions. Obviously, the effect of the governor’s proposed tax would be vastly smaller. And by the way, the governor’s proposal would not apply to jet fuel, as Boeing is the state’s largest private employer. Even with that glaring concession to political reality, Inslee apparently still believes that the state should make itself a moral example and “mark the way.” Sorry, but the federal bureaucracy until Donald Trump assumed the presidency was way ahead of him. Implementation of the Obama administration’s entire package of climate policies would have reduced temperatures by 25/1000 of a degree, while the Paris agreement, if implemented fully, would yield a reduction of 17/100 of a degree. Those effects, by the way, would be too small to be measured reliably. And so Inslee’s claim that his proposed tax would “save our children” from droughts, flooding, fires, and other “existential threats” is preposterous. Inslee seems implicitly to recognize this, and so he reverted to a justification based upon the employment that will be created by an expansion of “clean energy” production. That, too, is deeply dubious. His tax on energy would shift employment away from energy-intensive sectors toward others, and in the aggregate would reduce employment by making the economy smaller. (U.S. data show that energy consumption and employment move together closely. The same is true for energy consumption and GDP growth, household income, and reductions in the poverty rate.) About that “clean energy”: There is nothing “clean” about it. There is heavy-metal pollution created by the production process for wind turbines. There are noise and flicker effects of wind turbines. There is the large problem of solar-panel waste. There is wildlife destruction caused by the production of renewable power. There is massive and unsightly land use made necessary by the unconcentrated nature of renewable energy. Above all, there is the increase in emissions of conventional effluents caused by the up-and-down cycling of the backup conventional-generation units, which are needed to avoid blackouts caused by the unreliability of wind and solar power — a reality curiously underreported in the popular discussion. With respect to the “existential threats” asserted by Inslee: There is no question that increasing GHG concentrations are having measurable effects. But they are far smaller than the climate models would lead one to believe. The degree to which recent warming has been anthropogenic is unsettled in the scientific literature, and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in its fifth assessment report (AR5) has reduced its estimated range of the effect in 2100 of a doubling of GHG concentrations from 2.0–4.5 to 1.5–4.5 degrees C. Moreover, there is little evidence of strong climate effects attendant upon increasing GHG concentrations, in terms of sea levels; Arctic and Antarctic sea ice; tornado activity; tropical cyclones; U.S. wildfires; drought; and flooding. IPCC in the AR5 is deeply dubious (Table 12.4) about the various severe effects often hypothesized (or asserted) as future impacts of increasing GHG concentrations. Climate change caused by GHG emissions might prove to be a serious problem. It might prove to be a minor problem, and it might prove to be beneficial on net. We simply do not know, and the argument that very large costs ought to be imposed by climate policies upon the economy — that is, upon actual people — with trivial or unmeasurable benefits is deeply problematic.More research, more technological advance, and adaptation over time are likely to prove far wiser. In his State of the State address, Inslee used the phrase “carbon pollution” no fewer than five times. That term is political propaganda, the obvious purpose of which is to cut off debate before it begins by assuming the answer to the underlying policy question. Carbon dioxide is not “carbon,” and it is not a “pollutant,” as a certain minimum atmospheric concentration of it is necessary for life itself. By far the most important GHG in terms of the radiative properties of the troposphere is water vapor; no one calls it a “pollutant.” Why not? Is it because ocean evaporation is a natural process? So are volcanic eruptions, but the toxins, particulates, and other effluents emitted by volcanoes are pollutants by any definition of the governor.
  17. may help http://collision.enterprise.alldata.com/online2help/techRef/Powertrain_Trouble_Code_Charts/Caterpillar/C7,_C9,_C10,_C11,_C12,_C13,_C15,_3176B___3406E_Engines.htm
  18. R E A L I T Y ?
  19. and beards. Two members here were caught on the BMT Spy Cam prepping for the event..
  20. The Komatsu system is pretty much the same system with sensors instead of wire the the Robo Mowers use. Supposed to be able to sense grade, soil density, moisture, shade/ sun and seed spacing. Sounds to me like a massive F up ready made. So a signal loss, EMT pulse and nobody knows how to work the equipment and starves. . .
  21. The main testing involve rapid decompression among other thing. Don't think the Lowes unit would do very well at a loss of pressurization at oh say 25,000 ft
  22. The Komatsu system needs only a laptop or smart phone to monitor it, farmer doesn't even have to be in the same state, or for that matter even need to be a farmer just a techie
  23. Plus the other advantages on the dollar side. No longer a need for DOT and police highway patrols, parking enforcement, plain old fashioned traffic cops, school crossing guards, bus drivers and bus monitors for school buses and transit, cab drivers, traffic courts and DWI programs. . which is good for it eliminates a ton of lawyers, parole officers and counselors. The technology is there to leave only the EMT's and fire fighters to ride to the scene and not have to drive. Komatsu is working on GPS controlled farm equipment which will be easily adapted to construction equipment including dump and mixers I would guess, only need a laborer instead of an operator, big cost saving on wages, benefits, health care costs and pensions . Sorry I probably won't live to see it all in action, sounds real cool!
