cruiseliner64

Cant be scrapped...surely someone would want them??? Paul

Only nipples Iv felt in years are grease nipples🤣.... Paul

So here we are a whole year later...Mrs Cruiseliner and I are now 37 years married today and happier than ever and the truck is now 44 years old today...Thanks again to all who helped us with the Cruiseliner and thanks to Mrs Cruiseliner for backing me up with this madness🤣...We are sitting in the sun having a few cold ones...Cheers to all..🍺🍺🍺. Paul

With 6 of you to feed I can understand your situation.My kids have all moved out.Fuel prices hit everything....With diesel at 10.15 USD a gallon I wont be spining around in our Mack too much.I agree something has to give. Our goverment dosent give a dam.Sent out leaflets to every house telling us how to cut back.Hows that for a responce?? In other words suck it up...... Paul

Gas is 9.50 USD and diesel is 10.15 USD a gallon in Ireland at the moment.Its insane.I feel your pain over here too.Is food gone that expensive in the US?? Over here 2600 US would buy enough food for around 4 months for 2 people...... Paul

Yes they do come from Ireland.Robert Moffett founded the company in the 80s and they quickly became a best seller in truck mounted forklifts.The company was sold to Hiab in 1998.In 1999 Robert Moffett founded a new company called Combi lift making forklifts which can move in any direction for warehouse use.They now also make automated material handling solutions for any industry.They have sold around 100,000 forklifts and export to 85 countries.Now regarded as one of Irelands major success storys.The head office and one of the plants is about 20 miles from where We live.Roberts brother Sam Moffett is an expert in warehouse design and automation....Nice to see you have one Joey.Id love one myself!!!! Paul

Love that truck Joey.Great to see your working on it again.... Paul

Super looking truck...real eye catching... Paul

I agree Vlad.The H is a super looking truck.I love the G model too.I wonder if Mech can tell us how many Gs were built too...over to you Mech... Paul

Thats nasty.I hope your recovery is still progressing. Paul

True no one knows how long is left.My best friend passed away at just 46 of brain cancer 18 years ago leaving a beautiful wife and 3 great children behind.On his death bed he made me promise Id live life to the full.So if its tomorrow or 20 years time thats what I intend to do...... Paul

Yeah...better hand the floor back to freightrain..... Paul

You hit the nail on the head with that post Geoff.I agree with all you said.Book time means nothing when your doing a project for enjoyment.If it takes 5 times longer that it used to so what?? You enjoyed it...... Paul

I turn 62 on Monday 11th May.4 years to retirement.While Iv enjoyed most of the jobs Iv worked at Mrs Cruiseliner took an average of the hours Iv worked and based on a 40 hour week Iv done 65 years already...I like my current job but Im looking forward to retirement so I can work on restorations full time.....time to look for another Mack!!!! Paul

Me too Paul

I hear you but we dont stop doing things because we grow old.....we grow old because we stop doing things...... Paul

Dont think your anywhere near finnished yet Geoff.Dont know about body and ability but your interest clearly hasnt gone...Your a mine of helpful information..... Paul

Happy Birthday Joey.Hope you have a great day....Herself will have something nice cooked for you when you get home and if your a real good boy maybe a cold one or two in the fridge🤣

I had a President base station at home.I cant remember the model but it had 240 channels.I used to do some skip talking and got and sent QSL cards all over Europe.I used a BIG STICK antanna.It caused a lot of TV interfearence.Back then all the TV channels in Ireland (there were only 6 channels)shut down around midnight so I could only use it into the small hours...Happy days indeed... Paul

Back in the 70/80s when CB radio became popoular in Ireland the President AR7 was the biggest seller followed by Cobra and Motorola.Like the US nobody uses them now.....Sadly Paul

After doing some research Iv discovered that Mack did offer a Mack branded CB radio.They were made by Pana-pacific with Mack branding....... Paul

Dont blame her wanting that truck...its fantastic... Paul

Wow...hows that for a great must have if it genuine.... Paul

Guess iv a keeper too.Mrs Cruiseliner doesnt bother me when I spend on the Cruiseliner.She just says Boys and their Toys...... Paul

It does suck growing old but it beats the alternative.....🤣🤣🤣 Paul
