  1. Thats from the age of drive til your tired, rest up and go on, not lolling around for 10 hours like now. The smallest I recall was on the Ford C series.
  2. One of my units has a similar set up on the steering wheel, controlling Cruise functions , Radio and pre set mirror adjustments. Once I got used to having it being in a vehicle without it feels odd
  3. Never knew my grandfather, he died in the mid 1930's Baka lived until 1967, her sister lived until 1970 than I inherited the farm so to speak. Miss the special holiday meals a lot. Polish side is the Stazweski, Dubiki and Kazinski's. Last was supposed to be Polish aristocrats. Never could find out.
  4. I was alway's told they left ahead of WWI.
  5. With Great Briton's ban on fossil fuel vehicles in 2040 and several E.U. countries have already laid out ambitious plans to eliminate fossil fuel-powered vehicles between 2025 and 2040. French Environment Minister Hulot said it won’t be easy for France. “It’s a very difficult objective. But the solutions are there.” And, as the world’s sixth-largest economy, and with one of the world’s largest automotive markets, the proposed ban on the internal combustion engine could have significant impact far beyond France’s borders. Norway has laid out the most aggressive plans. It wants to get there by 2025. It helps that a full 24 percent of the vehicles sold in this oil-rich nation already are battery-electric India wants to get all of its vehicles switched to battery power by 2030 — and that means it not only wants to end the sale of internal combustion vehicles but convert or replace all other vehicles already on the road by the end of the next decade, a goal few see possible The Netherlands already has a relatively high EV sales rate, about 6 percent of its total new vehicles, but it has yet to formally lock down a switch to electric vehicles some would like to implement by as early as 2025 Germany may also push to end sales of gas and diesel vehicles by 2030, but there is strong opposition, especially since half of its electricity comes from coal. Yet German automakers are launching major drives to electrify and that could help build momentum for a switch.
  6. Grand mother, grandfather and 3 aunts came from Poland in 1915, mom was born here in 1917. I grew up on Polish farm cooking and Polish orders mixed with Yankee on pops side. . Potato farmers in Riverhead N.Y. Probable could send it packed in dry ice. :0
  7. This afternoons belly bomb from the Kushinski Deli, best eaten while the cab windows can stay open. Sliced Kielbasi, boiled cabbage and onions, Stuffed Cabbage and some Mashed Potato's with Sour Cream and onions. All washed down with a bottle of Polish Kiwi Soda. . Now if we could only send the after affect to North Korea.
  8. I think the test rigs fenders and lighting looked better. More B influence in my eyes. Paul From a BMT members post.
  9. When we went to Tannersville we hit the River Beat Record Shop in Troy, help full and will search sources for you. Got Dave Dudley through him.
  10. Nice find. whats the rig on the back? Paul
  11. My wife was going to cook tongue . ..once.... til I picked it up from the pot, and licked her cheek with it. Shot that dinner all to hell.
  12. I'm a fan of painted tanks, yours look perfect. I'd do the spiders too. Paul
  13. We have had the camera system in NY for about 10 years, you would be amazed how the focus is affected by a water pistol.
  14. Which is made with sugar and scrapple squeezin's
  15. We used to go to a dinner that served Beefalo Burgers ummmmmmm ummmmmm good!
  16. It's VIN show it as a Mack or a GM?
  17. Got a few likes from KS over the past 2 weeks, he just hasn't been on alot. Paul
  18. The 2016 Dodge 5500 I bought last year, took in for a recall. Got the truck back and went ballistic at the dealer. There are 18 grease fittings that Dodge plugs from new. I replaced them all with zerks. Looked under the truck and they were all flattened with a hammer. Service manager told me they were life greased. Told him my truck my fittings , put new ones in or I'll see you lose your job for damaging my truck and I'll see the dealership in court...
  19. 1930 would have been a Flathead similar the AL or BK series power plants. I believe it it a Le Roi. . Probably an ex military power unit from WWII .
  20. Lincoln V-12. An almost bolt in for a flathead Ford or Mercury. somewhat prone to overheating or at least running very hot.
  21. Welcome to the forum. Generally when the fuel gauge reads full all the time, 99% of the time you have a broken or bad ground off the fuel gauge sending unit at the fuel tank. The sockets for the gauge lights you can buy replacements at an auto parts store.(NAPA is my preference) Yes the wire has to be cut and the new sockets spliced on in place of the old ones. Paul
  22. Rte 95 Maine Pike, exit 63, north on rte 202 just past North Grey on your right.
  23. And first check grounds for the lights affected.
  24. Look good, typical Mack. I slip a full chrome grill on it to give it the Titan or Superliner influence. Paul
  25. Saw the image with some shiny parts on it in BBIGRIG's post, it does look better. IMO moving the alien eyes down to the hood sides or top of fenders would make it more acceptable. That said, the comments and opinions on the Anthem I showed to my uncle who did MACK service from 1950 to 1993. His thoughts were, that we said the same things when the B was replaced by the R models. They thought MACK killed the brand! So I guess it's all the normal thought process. I will reserve my final opinions when I physically, eyeball, touch and sit in one. Paul
