  1. Still looks great after you hae worked it a bit...good luck with it.. Paul
  2. I switched from coal to oil 30years ago but kept the coal fire.I light it now and again but ALWAYS on Christmas day...adds to the Christmas feeling me thinks.... Paul
  3. Thanks to both of you for replying.would you beleve I just got both Baldwin filters but have not had a chance to fit one yet.After a lot of enquiries I found a parts store just 22 miles from me that knew where to get the filters.The only difference is one filter is 5/8 thred and the other is 11/16.....so I had to buy both....still from now on I'll know which one to order and where to get it.Thanks again guys.... Paul
  4. Oh and the music was top notch too.. Paul
  5. Oh how I miss the 80s too.Best trucks, plain good food ,great chics and cold beer was cheap!!!!! Paul
  6. Welcome to the group.Yes please do keep us informed about the progress of your Mack.I cant help identify the parts but Im sure there are some here who will be able to help you.the first part looks like an engine governer to limit RPM.but not 100% sure.the second looks to be a brake servo of some type.Anyway the guys here will sort it im sure.I see your in Poland,im in Ireland.There us a guy in Holland who got me parts for our Mack.Best of luck with it.. Paul
  7. Fair play paul I knew we could get the real reason for all this from you in a practical and humourous way....understated as always🤣🤣🤣
  8. Ha ha...we drive on the "wrong" side of the road over here too🤣.... Paul
  9. Real nice... Paul
  10. Probably for the dusty outback roads id say but im sure mrs mack could tell us more... Paul
  11. Wow what a find...gotta be saved.Id love to have a project like that on the slow burner...something to fill in the quiet times.... Paul
  12. All about the money...same the world over Paul
  13. Thats a great parts store,wish id one like it near me.The EU in their wisdom have outlawed such places.scrap yards are now just that.. once a vehicle enters its broken into recycleable parts and sent to recovery places where every part is melted down into its raw state and then made into something else...no vintage parts for the likes of us... Paul
  14. Temp in C not F.pressure(oil and air)in hpa not psi....metric in other words🥶...Im only guessing because i seen a canadian Kenworth and GMC which had the metric clocks.Our Cruiseliner has them too... Paul
  15. Meant to include this he sent me via whatsapp
  16. Well I got back down to the tyre depot and the guy there said 24in tubeless tyres are widely available from a few different companys...all in China.The tyres are highway radial tyres and are the most common truck tyre in China.Boto and Long March are two of the companys he said make them...... Paul
  17. Same here.I remember one stormy night rescueing a GUY truck(British Layland)with a 220 cummins which the driver said just stopped.After confirming no power at the pump we screwed in the screw on the pump and got it back to the yard.Turned out the fuse for the wipers blew and that fuse also supplied the pump solenoid.... Paul
  18. Nice one..never thought of that problem with a plow.We get very little snow so the road authority just hires wheel loaders to clear the roads.My brother was part of the management team in Shannon airport where because of the airports intetnational status it has to have a fleet of plows at the ready.15 years ago they bought 10 new Iveco plows and last year they replaced them with new plows....The Ivecos were NEVER used....They were maintained and drove around the airport to keep them up to scratch.That shows how often we get snow here.. .. Still gets dam cold though. Paul
  19. Hi,anyone get the "Steelbox" version of Convoy?? Iv just ordered it.It seems there is loads of extra still pictures,interviews with cast members and scenes not used in the movie.Should be worth having... Paul
  20. Wow you got two beautiful bargains there.If I lived in the US there would have been a bidding war between us....best of luck with them.they are pure class.. Paul
  21. Maybe its like our Cruiseliner EM6 300 with the intercooler bolted to the rad.Its still air to air intercooling but could be mistaken as part of the rad by soneone not familier with the set up... Paul
  22. Not yet.I'v been too busy to get back down to the tyre depot.Hope to get down on Saturday.Thanks for your help on this.I do value your opinion. .. Paul
  23. Looks much the same as the EM 6-300 in our Cruiseliner.The shape of the valve covers,the exhaust manifold and a few other details all look the same....its a Mack motor me thinks.... Paul
