    I did think at the time what were they thinking when they put this transmission together cause most professional drivers even back in 95 were driving without the clutch bob

    I think you’re getting confused. We were talking about two different transmissions me and Brocky we’re talking about a 12 speed. That’s the only one I’ve ever seen or heard of it was kind of a fun challenge to shift this thing but yes, you definitely needed the clutch to move the air switches.bob

    If it’s just got a few cracks in it, you probably be better off to glue it together with gorilla superglue and if it still doesn’t look right, you’re gonna shoot it with krylon of rust oleum rattle can

    We both save shit we’re not going to use and don’t wanna throw out and I rethink most of it we’ll never even see it again why even save it but I’m sure somebody will probably wind up with this place for free after were gone let them deal with it and old photos of me very small and parents very young probably won’t mean anything to anyone after I’m gone…kind of sad to think all the precious photographs will wind up in the trash someday … bob

    No idea about the quarter fenders and keeping it era correct but I was gonna suggest something like that brand new Mack full fenders Especially if you’re trying to protect the back of the cab from rock Nicks

    I don’t think anybody got it. I don’t know what the gray button is for. I did drive a transmission and a Volvo white years and years ago had two switches. It wasn’t a 13. I think it was a 12 and you could not shift it without using a clutch air operated switch would not shift the gears unless the clutch was depressed I’m sure some of you knew which one I’m talking about Maybe that’s the one you had Tom

    I was wondering if it was the one I saw watched a movie about 25 years ago where a DM 800 went over a cliff… bob
  21. mowerman

    Yeah, I can’t open it either. Our charity run is over. Thank God a lousy day high wind black skies about froze to death

    That would make sense I’ve driven a few of them and I’ve always liked them so I usually notice them whenever I see one and I’ve never even noticed if I’ve ever seen that type of or not but custom nose is probably just just what it is… bob
