    They're probably Renault or Volvo parts. You can try interweb search for any European Renault parts trader and show them pics of the stuff together with the VIN. Not shure they will be too likely to dig out an old truck parts lists and than provide send owerseas. But that might be a way if no others. I use to do such deals on the constant basis although it takes time and a lot of attention. Vlad

    Mike, did that retread tire loose its skin under a hard load or speed? Doesn't look like a nice moment though.

    Looks very nice so far. Hope to see the hood finished and installed soon.

    Cool sculptures, probably neat place to spend some time at. I know you American guys are proud of your country built stuff but my favorite is Jag. What is the speed limit in those empty highways you could have done so good day milage? Vlad

    Beautiful area to look over You are the lucky man Very usable collection of the yard toys, seems like the neighbours aren't far from you about that way. What are the animals on the top of the mountain in the 4th pic of the first bunch?

    Keith, how this stuff is modern? Do they do it now or 20 years back? Haven't heard about Allis-Chalmers engines under a truck hood.

    Well done I went through the same story with my old Mack a couple years back although it wasn't so bad. I just machined the trunnion ends with a big lathe and fabricated new brass bushings.

    Many thanks guys. I googled the ## and found out many options. Evil bay shows and describes it as a green tint though. Finditparts offers them for $69.90 with free continental shipping but has no pictures. Maybe I should contact Tracy on Watt's and ask the nuances.

    Jim, many thanks. I'll try a business on monday.

    What a cool place to B!

    Thank you for the input. Please check it out when possible. Watt's have them, at least on the site, and very reasonable although it's a trouble to connect them with my local parts dealer.

    I'd like to go with tinted green ones since I have them the wind shields and the vents. My metal planks are rotten hard and far from to be put on new glasses. Just waiting the doors for my R from the paint shop and want non-scratched glasses in. There's also a way to custom made them locally but they have SAE thikness, about 5.7 mm metric. Here it's possible 5 or 6, not anything in between. And due to the weight there's no way to buy them private, to recall local dealers only. That's why I need those original ##.

    Tom, that's a cool season series And one more time to remember that when you think anything it too might be already done before you. The winter pics makes Brrrr about those trucks wich couldn't keep the rubber side down.
  16. Vladislav
    Does anybody know the part number of a light green door glass? And does it have the metal part on it when new?
  17. Vladislav
    Those are great looking MH's! Thank you for the candy Al.

    Tom, nice collection of the red trucks waterfall pics this time Cool place to pass by by the word. I think you should make a summer, fall and winter pictures or just post the same one again, again and again.

    Jim, that's a good note about the calendar, I think Mike knew what he pictured. Mike, thank you for sharing, nice to see the area you live.
  20. Vladislav
    From looking this lot of very nice pictures it seems to me you have fun doing the job. Wish you to keep this way as long as you can. Work might remember at any moment that work isn't a holiday so I keep my fingers crossed for you

    I saw this truck at Matt Pfahl 2 years back, remember it had rears wich didn't look as an old Mack. Glad to see it has been restored and got a new owner. Looks impressive, good color choice.
  22. Vladislav
    She's pretty Thanks for sharing.

    My old Mack book (1945) tells "turn the nut up to the end than loose back for 3 notches" It comes about 1/8 of a full rev. I was also searching for the correct way to pack the bearings and was told from the axle factory specialist that with modern grease you need just to pack bearings well and it's enough for 100000 km. Everything else you put in a cavit will just stay there.
  24. Vladislav
    What are you gonna use to get the old paint off?
  25. Vladislav
    Far from to be called a nice day but I think your chiefs must be proud having you as a driver. Shure repairs weren't turn out for free although you have it all arranged in one day and the truck (and the driver) was almost ready to go on the next day. As a different story the rig could be stopped on a shoulder waiting for a wrecker and an extra truck to pull off the trailer.
