  1. Maybe it is familiarity, but I find classic American trucks beautiful and European trucks funny looking. Thanks for the pictures though.
  2. Nice. I want one, but spend all my money on junky old trucks.
  3. I took a better picture today. Try to get a better background too.
  4. Your 420 looks great. Here is my 1957 420. It is my only John Deere. I am more of a Red Power guy, but I love this tractor. I don't really farm. I have the brush hog hooked to it now. Not the best picture. I sold the Model T.
  5. The fire truck sold for $5200. The stub nose dump truck sold for about $6800. It was the neatest truck there. The engine was stuck and it had hydraulic brakes. The IH wrecker sold for $7000 and some. I think it was a good deal with a cummins in it. I didn't buy any of them. The non-running K100 were bringing $4000-5000. One didn't have an engine or transmission and brought $4500.
  6. What would you want for the radiator? Where is it located? I'm near Philly. Mike.
  7. That was quite a burn out. How fast were you going by the end of his property? I only took a few pictures this year.
  8. Cal Little sold his last Ford pickup with about 100,000 miles on it to a friend. I don't remember if it had a problem but the back two spark plugs couldn't be reached. He took it to the dealer and was told the cab had to be removed to change them.
  9. I think you are going to end up with a show truck with all the work you are putting into it. It is a shame for the grey truck though. 41chevy: I love mayo on my hotdogs and I love my 4070A with a 400 big cam. Mike
  10. I am pretty sure this truck is an 85LS and only a couple serial numbers higher than mine. It broke my heart to see it burnt up.
  11. My grandfather delivered Model A Fords from the Chester PA plant. How much of a vehicle he got depended on what he was delivering. He often sat on a wooden box while delivering truck chassis. They gave him money for the return train ride, but if he hitched a ride he could keep the money. One time he was delivering a truck chassis in the winter. It slid off the road nose first into a snow bank up to the windshield. He got pulled out and continued on his way without a scratch on it. Mike
  12. I have driven my 25 AC at 25 mph and that is fast enough without a windshield. I don't know how motorcyclist do it. It has the brake booster so it stops ok. I haven't had to stop in an emergency. It has pneumatic tires but they were put on in 1936 so I don't want to be too hard on them.
  13. Yours looked great. My father didn't even wash his.
  14. I feel your pain. I am no good at selling things either. I have sold a few things and have regretted it before they left. One I bought back. I had two I sold that I knew were being parted out. That was even worse. I didn't want them but didn't want them cut up. I could never do it as a business. You will be happy when you get the Autocar back looking nice though.
  15. $2500 in Baltimore. http://baltimore.craigslist.org/cto/5759494481.html
  16. I got seals for my A model and L model fire trucks from Associated truck parts. They had not problem getting them. I took in the old which had leather in them and they crossmatched them. I don't know if they are a local chain or if they are in your area. Mike
  17. From the name I assume you are in Trenton NJ. My father has a bunch of parts he would be willing to sell. I am in Boyertown Pa. I will ask him prices if you are interested. Mike.
  18. Nice. I like it.
  19. Not earning it's keep but this is along the road close to me. I assume it is for sale but there is no information. It is pretty rough.
  20. Please put me on the waiting list. How far down am I? Mike.
  21. Wow. That sucks. Glad you pulled it off. Hope I am never in the same situation.
  22. Neat. You haven't talked him out of it yet?
  23. The radiator I the superpumper f model is out of a former ralph g smith truck. I lent it to andy Leider several months ago so they could get it running. Wish I could go.
  24. Pretty neat. Any pictures of them hanging?
