  1. I guess I should get my extinguishers tested. I sold a 707 out of a B85 to someone on this forum. He has a B70 that he wants to put it in. Maybe he will see this and change his mind. I have another complete 707, but I think I will keep it as a back-up. Mike
  2. Great truck. That is definitely too far away. Just brought that a model.home yesterday though. 700 miles round trip. I wouldn't have bought it if i knew it was that far. I'll post pictures tomorrow. Mike
  3. I have bought several B model manuals at the truck show in Macungie. They are big, thick books with green covers. You should make the pilgramage. Mike
  4. I told myself that I was not buying any more firetrucks unless they had some local connection. No chance I am driving that home. It is 500 miles and the brakes don't work.
  5. You made a lot of progress. Everything always takes longer than expected. You'll have a really nice truck when you are done. Keep at it. Mike
  6. You guys are bad influences. My dad and I are going for it on Saturday. Please send me that picture if you find it. Mike
  7. B422's are not that rare. Someone can tell you how many were built. The red one is not mine. It belongs to a friend named Phil Mack, no joke. I bought the orange and blue B42 from him and most of our parts and the grey McCormick Deering 15-30 from his father. I took leversole to see them. The blue B model in the pole barn with the hood up is also a B422.
  8. Thanks for coming. It was great to meet you. We thought the building was full a long time ago, but we keep stuffing more trucks in. It takes two people to park them. Mike
  9. Underdog's V8 Superliner.
  10. This is Underdog's with a 400 V8. It is pretty nice.
  11. I doubt it. I could look. It's not at my house.
  12. It is an A30H. It is not built on a fire truck chassis. The front mounted pump has been removed. Of course it has hydraulic brakes. If it had air I would be much more excited. I've been doing a lot of thinking about it. It is 26.5 feet long. Sure would take up a lot of room in the pole barn. I would have to put something out to put it in. Probably a 1970 R685 with a bad injector pump. Mike
  13. 1975 R685. The cab is pretty rusty. Only supposed to have 200,000 miles on the engine. It is not mine and it is for sale. Mike
  14. The Transtar is pretty high on my list too. I drove it to Indiana last year. 400 big cam Cummins with a double overdrive 13 speed. The green Superliner with the v8 is Underdog's. The the other Superliner is my father's as are a much of the other trucks. Thanks for posting the pictures, leversole.
  15. Did you see what you need on anything at my house? I can cut it off for you. Thanks for posting the pictures. The B615 looks great. I love the hard noses. Mike
  16. Congrats on the baby. Just mount a car seat in the bunk and you'll be good to go. I'm sure the little lady will go for that. Good Luck.
  17. It is always father's day weekend. This year it is Friday June 15 and Saturday June 16. I'll be taking trucks up on the 14 and taking them home on the 17. It would be nice if more people were around on Sunday because a lot of people show up looking for trucks. See you there. Mike
  18. I sent you a personal message. Please call me. Michael Yarnall 610 764 8283
  19. George, Go down to "More Reply Options"(right lower corner). Then go down to the left lower corner by the paper clip and and sected "Choose Files...". Pick the file you want and click on "open" or something like that. See you Saturday. Michael
  20. Ben, I agree with Thomas above, you should get new glass cut. It will be well worth it. I have several parts trucks, but I am on the other side of the state near Reading, PA. The bumper isn't any good and the motor is bad, but the fenders, grill guard and radiator shell are good. It has fixed shutters. The back of the cab has had some repairs. The bed is pretty rusty. We were asking for $1200 for the truck because it has a good scissors dump hoist on it. I would sell it for less without the doors and the hoist. Mike 610 764 8283
  21. George, I don't know anything about Seagraves, but congratulations. So you're rebuilding the Collingdale Reserve Fire Company. Now you have to restore the Ford. Are you and your Father coming to my house on Saturday? Michael
  22. Here is one of the Autocar's that Daryll Gushee bought at the L and H Auction in York PA. Neat truck, but it would cost a mint to restore. I don't remember the model or year.
  23. Great truck and even better wife. It really looks nice. It's hard to find that old of a truck with no rust. Mike
  24. That's the place. We moved the trailers and put a 2400 sq ft addition on last fall. I'll see you there. Gregg, I hope the car hauling business is going well. I didn't know you had a Superliner. Bring it on down. My dad will be excited to see it. So will I. Sorry Vinny, It's a reagular old R model cab, but good eye. Mike
  25. There was a big Autocar and White auction in Hanover, PA in November of 2010. Daryll Gushee bought a bunch of trucks there. I guess the trucking business is treating him well. He also had a long story on the ATHS forum about a three story chicken coup that he bought last year and is converting into a museum. It is a neat story. I read the whole thing in one night. I like to see his collection. It sounds amazing. Mike
