  1. The new parts are for use by the Customer Mod Center. The Mod Center (in the back of the Museum) is where they "specialize" the new trucks for the customers. During Trucktoberfest you can go thru the Mod Center. BTW, Trucktoberfest is September 26-27.
  2. No problem Mike and sorry I missed the burnt weenies. David and I were trolling in little orange. Enjoyed "hanging" with you, Rob, Roger, Leslie, and Randy.
  3. X2
  4. I am back at the farm. Great day for a drive in the MH...no issues (best kind). Another GREAT show....thanks Doug and all the others that helped. Too bad the weather did not cooperate on Friday but Saturday was a gorgeous day! Enjoyed meeting and talking with many of the BMT members. Hope you all had a safe trip home. P.S. Mike - the SIRIUS cradle is the problemo....should be able to find one on fleabay.
  5. Food, wimmin, and trucks....is there anything else???
  6. FYI - TK lunch NITs not as good looking as the night NITs. Weather forecast for Saturday is nice but the field is "mud soup". Hopefully it will dry quickly, otherwise waders are recommended. Remember - BMT name tags at Watt's tent....and BMT nooner on Saturday! Great dinner tonight! Carl - the 6.0L was not a good engine.
  7. A group of us are going to the Museum this morning then to the show after lunch. Hopefully it will be nice for the Family Reunion tonight. Otherwise I may have to "rent" my trailer and set-up tables/chairs. If I had a pole I could arrange entertainment.
  8. Countryboy.... I was parked on the west side of the bridge, close to the Interstate overpass. I left around 3pm.
  9. Leslie/Larry, At least you guys have a hood to help place you in the lane. Try that without a hood, talk about a pucker factor! Driving a COE takes lots of skill.....but I can show you some scuff marks on the RH tire. I am so busy watching the front that I don't have time to look in the mirror. PA Turnpike tunnels get me concerned.
  10. Lock up the wimmin....I am in town! Drizzled rain the whole way to Fogelsville. Checked in at the hotel and will be headed to the park this afternoon to "claim" high ground. Only issue was the LH wiper blade gave out. Luckily I brought spares. Replaced it at the PA Turnpike Carlisle rest stop. Carl called and left a message. Perhaps GM will have a recall on the ETCM. Have you driven a Ford lately?
  11. Mother nature power washed the truck and trailer last night - high winds and 2.1" of rain. Plan to be on the road around 7a. Need to load my personal stuff, check for any "rain/wind" damage, and then boogie south and east. See you after lunch! Have a safe trip everyone!
  12. Ben/Tim, You can sleep in the trailer with the Mack parts. Bring your own sleeping bags. P.S. No camper?....does that mean "no burnt weiners"? Maybe Leslie or Mike will have burnt weiners....
  13. Mine is mirrored too....when is the last time you heard someone wax the headliner?
  14. JT - I was thinking the tours are only on Saturday. Doug or someone else will know for sure. Weather forecast: T-storms (80%) on Thursday, Scattered T-storms on Friday, and Sunny on Saturday. Temps all three (3) days 78-80 degrees (lows 60s). So I am going to wait until Thursday to "409" the MH. I am going to ask for the parking spot I had last year (in the back on high ground). See you all at Macungie.....have a safe trip! Ron - I will try to remember to bring some spider spray.
  15. I will have the seats recovered with velour and install shag carpet.
  16. No, there are no flaps. By the design of the side skirts behind the front and rear wheels, I don't think one could install flaps. I searched the interweb and never found "moulded" flaps for the GTP.
  17. No....did not buy anything, not even a cap or shirt. But I have some ideas for the D150 - lower and put 20" wheels on it.
  18. I think OD is an informant for the Obummer's!
  19. Denny, Sorry to hear you will not be at Macungie. But you have a higher priority. Good luck and my prayers go out to you all.
  20. I am back from the HR tour. I have not been on the interweb since Saturday night. Guessing at least 1000-2000 cars each day. Knoxville, TN had a very nice show grounds and seemed well prepared to handle all the cars and crowd. Charlotte was a "cluster" in my book (only 3 food stands and they were out of food by 2pm) and Charleston, WV was not much better. I took over 200 pics and my friend took about 100. As soon as I can get them organized and uploaded to Photobucket, I will post a link. Stay tuned! P.S. Found some eye candy at the Gunk display today! P.S. 2 - Staxx, did not read your post until tonight. Sorry or I would have tried to locate your friend.
  21. Day 1 - Charlotte ZMax Dragstrip HOT! Must have been 100+ degrees on the pavement. Lots of nice very nice vehicles. Waited in line at least 1/2 hour to pickup registration packet. A few pics taken by my friend.... A few interesting rides parked next to my GTP A cool Chebbie truck Eyeing a potential purchase....1970 Chyrsler 300 Convertible with 440 Some eye candy for the Farmer....
  22. Must be something about the WV Turnpike. There was a burnt straight truck on the south bound side this morning. Had traffic backed up for at least two (2) miles.
  23. Today is National Donut Day....yippie!!! :banana:
  24. I too was going to comment....you can't polish a turd but was being nice. Jim broke the ice..... Good luck in your sale!
