  1. Bright sunshine + big red Superdog + virgin white snow = perfect pictures
  2. Those Grip-Strut's look like a way to go. Can anybody tell me what is the width of the original RW steps? 4 inches? Or 5? I want to try to order them to put on my MH tanks. And it looks they are offered of stainles steel either.
  3. Thank you for posting that interesting stuff. And the beautiful picture is with the transfer case firs in the background. Vlad
  4. Sorry to hear sad news about your friend. Thanks for the weekly report.
  5. Not a bad offer for someone who has another truck to add to.
  6. Glad to know the turn out was good. It's shure not nice to loose some cash on wrekers although it's the way of this business. Hope those good photos you made could cheer you up.
  7. The interior green looks beautiful! The door inside reinforsment plates are the way to go. Recently I found out and too surprized that stainless steel and common steel combo is a rust accelerating pair. So pay some attention to your SS mounting bolts when turn them into the nuts. I mean just put a bit of grease onto.
  8. Happy Birthday!
  9. As longer we live as more people like to figure out and determine how we should to. Unbelevable BS on my mind.
  10. Thank you for the pics Tom. It's nice to see long ways while you're off the steering wheel spending time in a shop. Sometimes it's not so bad to work in a shop while the roads are snowy and icey though.
  11. Shure I'm still not far from "rookie" status although I don't remember seeing E with such the long wheelbase.
  12. I'm not shure on what Mack used for although the seem pretty much the same as common off-road fender flares. Once I was asked by a friend of mine to buy that stuff for him being in the off-road accessory shop. It was just a roll of black rubber with the soft ended edge. He fixed it alnong his fenders with self cutting screws and it was done. Forgot to mention, that band was "Made in the USA".
  13. Clean up all the rust in the windshield mounting area, hand prime it (with self etch primer-?) than put a piece of paper/masking folie into the opening, fix with adhesive band and spray the cab over. If you have any old unnecessery windshields you may put them in for masking. It shure much better to paint with no windshield rubber. Especially in the future when that rubber might be shortened up due to its drying or just getting its place. Not more than my pair of cents, your project is your headache
  14. Wow! I'm not on the HCVC and haven't heard anything about that fact. Too interesting to learn. That NJU seemed to me as a cool to have vehicle and I drooled a bit about it. Although it needed work and I resolved to not get into one more long story having many of at the moment. There was one more moment. The only NJU is an unique vehicle and I think Russia is not the best place for it. Such rare vehicles better to stay in area wich has any historical relation to it.
  15. There are two ways to go at the moment. Remove at least one head and the pan and take some pistons out to inspect the rings. Or to brake it in. Second looks easier although it's easier to locate their mistake if any. Have you note the oil level lowering?
  16. Thank you for clearing Mike. I related that hood with B73/75 and was wrong. The only question now is where to get 17500 extra cash plus shipping where to get 4 extra years of life to bring this thing to the condition I'd like to see in
  17. Best Birthday wishes to your father Randy! 75 is a good score and I too wish many more!!
  18. Paul, that's a great stuff to see! Many thanks for sharing from your neighbourhood. Some set back axler's in Europe. Interesting point some of these have British plates on although are LHD.
  19. I would say (for quite shure) NJU. A different pretty rare WW2 beast. At least the wheel base size and Timken axles point out on that. Shure if it's a Mack at all. NJU's had Mack flat head gassers from the factory. The red one in the pic is the only survivor I ever heard of of 700 units built. Cheers, Vlad
  20. Front bumper looks off a heavier E. EM, EQ and maybe EH also. Thank you for sharing this nice vehicle.
  21. Sorry to not follow the cost discussion although the hood length of this unit seems to me as short as of a B67. Were they V8 B's had this style factory or were either different ones with "normal" (B61 size) hood length?
  22. Would fit a Superliner although the one is for a MH. Central square cut outs are for steps. If this be a chrome plated one I'd be Paypalling right at the moment.
  23. There are different values over the globe indeed.. Thank you for posting neat rigs folks.
  24. I would grab it with RHD or LHD or with no steering at all. Where's my winning ticket?... Paul, anything of the same style for a L model? Thank you for sharing
  25. I thought I've learned some things being on here for a while but that picture got me to find out I've not. The hoods with that style of grill mean the trucks are RL/RS. But they were Hayward built. So what a chance was to picture them up in Allentown?
