    Trade?

    I got an extra B-model belt buckle for Christmas,and i thought rather than send it back,maybe someone has one i don't have they'd like to trade?...............it looks just like this one (which i also don't have)...............Mark
  13. Thanks Jim,that was a really nice truck,a friend of my grandfathers owned it,he had a driver quit,needed a load delivered,so pop "volunteered" me to go! I ended up taking a mixed load of produce from Vineland,NJ to Toronto. This guy was a real "fly by night operator" he gave me two checks for fuel (one up one back) and $50.00 expense money (it bounced) I made the trip,re-loaded a load of flour at Pillsbury in Buffalo,delivered in Jersey the next day. I think i made $85/90.00 for the whole mess! BUT i got to drive a "pretty" truck! this one had the nice V.I.T interior (blue buttontuck) 3408 CAT,14 speed Spicer sst,and 3:35 rears if i remember correctly.this was also the one and only truck i ever drove with a 120 MPH speedometer in it,and given the proper circumstances,i think it would easiliy have done it! my first foray in the pilot seat of a "largecar" lol!........................Mark
  14. I don't know if it was a year or maker thing,but i do remember the split button in my dads White Frieghtliner C.O.E was red......................Mark
  15. I drove a KW with a 14 speed Spicer SST in my youth,really neat trans.! (yes,i drove a KW, one trip only!) especially when backed by a 3408 CAT! i have'nt seen any other trucks with this combo,but it seems they are/were very popular with "truckies" down under. I found a video of 16 speed operation,pretty much the same,and very easy once you get the hang of it....................................Mark
  16. Personally,i always liked the "feel" of the old style 13 speed knob better than the "new and improved" modern version.......................................Mark
  17. Nice! thanks for posting,how you liking that 12 speed? and yes,as others have already said, Jake+Winter+Bob-tail= disaster!....................................Mark
  18. I always thought the same thing,guess we'll never know now........................................Mark
  19. I was saddened to learn we lost yet another American icon (and fellow New Jersean) Gen. H.Norman Schwarzkopf,a true modern day American patriot and exemplary soldier!.............................Mark
  20. Heres what an Autocar with a REAL engine sounds like LOL!........................................Mark
  21. I'm digging the guardrail bumper! and the clutch pedal! used to be an old-timer around South Jersey when i was a kid,had a 4000 White with a rail-road tie for a bumper!..........................Mark
  22. Pussy! thats not a REAL trans. thats a 13 speed with a 2 stick conversion from 4 States trucks in Joplin,MO looks like he has all the prerequisite bullshit for the "butchie-big rigger" dash,forklift spinner,skull heads,genuine accessory fully illuminated chromium plated shift knobs,ghetto sunvisor..................next time try a MAN'S trans. Duplex,Triplex,Quadruplex,even a 5X4,4X4,etc.........................................Mark
  23. Heres some of the Macks,for those un-able to view the page.......................Mark
  24. LOL! nah,i shower SOLO only! no chance of getting hit by "friendly fire"!.....................................Mark
  25. I saw this one in person on the road while on a family trip,very cool looking truck,loud as hell as i remember. All the time,effort (and money) invested makes me wonder what happened to it?...................................Mark
