  1. A dual purpose vehicle at its best!
  2. Kemp always had some interesting truck stories!!! The number of good old truck yards sure isn't what it used to be...
  3. It is Keith S who is engineering and building the electric Mack B-46.
  4. Mack A model and L model with a EH moving van out back. GMC, Ford N, Mack EE and Mack L Mack EF dump truck
  5. SAE 50W heavy duty engine oil is correct for both Spicer boxes. Synthetic is available but flush both boxes thoroughly if you go that route. https://spicerparts.com/en-emear/parts/lubricants/off-highway/sae-50-gear-lubricant
  6. Kemp's Reo model 31 and a Diamond, White 3000, two Autocar COE's and a Mack LJSWX dump truck
  7. Great looking black R tractor with the Trail King and the orange B61 dump!
  8. I am intrigued by the torque ratings of the electric motors in this application but will not ever buy one.
  9. Thanks for posting. Modern truck electronics are already enough of a pain without having to also play Hide and Seek.
  10. Nice! Specs for a New England hauler.
  11. The set back front axle with independent suspension of the DLR didn't have all the drivers smiling and the shops had increased maintenance with more moving parts.
  12. Between all the Ho, ho, ho's of the season, let's give thanks and prayers to all those that have served, fought and defended our country and countries of our compatriots.
  13. 1939 Mack F model, 1920 Mack AB and a White Sterling out back.
  14. That stinks! When it rains, it pours...
  15. Kemp's 1930 Mack AK to transport Texaco fuel products with a couple big Sterling trucks out back.
  16. A Mack B-42T converted to a dump truck at its new home after the Kemp auction.
  17. Not a great picture but some kids used to ride in style in a Mack E model bus. Was at Kemp's for years and is now in PA with some thoughts of a restoration.
  18. You are officially on your own. Lancaster Upholstery used to make a kit for the L model cardboard headliner and back of cab liner but they stopped producing it about 4-5 years ago. If you want to do your own. The cardboard can be purchased from Restoration Specialties as well as the edge welting. Also some folks have had upholstery shops do L interiors with vinyl, cloth or even leather! http://www.restorationspecialties.com/ They call it cowlboard.
  19. With the mirrors being on a sliding bracket, the H may have been a mobile home toter before it was parked.
  20. Good quality light is definitely on my list of critical shop equipment. Nothing worse than trying to do repair work in the dark!
  21. Another Mack FW dump truck for Kemp.
  22. Check here in the BMT Wiki
  23. Interesting read. Mitchell's theory of maintenance needed some fine tuning...
