  3. glad the whole thing is behind me off today dentist appt,,,,i was going to sand the truck some more....dont feel like doing anything looks like TV
  4. Yes, I can’t remember the model number but one of them is what they call a u model there is two frames for the 45 one is two whee old Frame mainly military that’s what I had and the other one is the three wheeler they used to use metermaids And yes, as you said, most of us have ugly stories.. bob
  5. My god what a collection of dolls I’m thinking if we start drinking at a bar will both wind up taking cabs might have to chip in
  6. A buddy of mine took an early retirement from sheriff department at 52 turned trucker he couldn’t take the baloney anymore like as soon as up pin on a badge your on probation the rest of your life every move you make gotta explain yourself .. . Bob
  7. Must’ve missed something didn’t catch the trooper story that sucks. I think we just lost a couple of highway patrolman here recently seems ever since black lives. Matters came about law enforcement has lost considerable respect from lots of people just more baloney and a country headed for a hell. Pretty cool to have the copter flyover thanks for that.. bob
  8. And yes, they even look good. If you have all brand new Lugnuts and keepers or at least had brush them with the gray paint.
  9. I was considering chroming my hubcaps like Matt did, but I’m probably gonna paint them gray along with the rims I was fixing on doing the spokes green, but up in the air with that also, I might paint the spokes, black and the rims gray not sure what I’m going to do yet since that’s the way most factory trucks came back in those days
  10. Ha ha Amazon it’s amazing what they carry or what they can get. I even went on there and found various shapes and sizes and colors for toggle switch extensions.

  12. Well, I hate to say this Paul, but I really think he moved onto greener pastures married that chick from Israel and I think something happened to him over there since the country is always fighting with somebody bob
  13. Excellent thanks for that. I haven’t decided what I’m gonna do yet since I’m not a big fan of chrome depending on what it is, I might just paint everything including the mirrors and brackets as I mentioned the stock Mack hubcaps are probably out of the question. It’s nice to know I could use them if I wanted to and 10 four on the air start and spokes excellent combination
  14. got the same story years ago buying a 47 --45 model harley in a baskit engine was supposed to be rebuilt,,,when i got it together---oil rings were so worn out,,,engine was actually throwing oil out the tailpipe,,,,had to have it inspected by DMV officer,,,dont remember why,,,but i was embarrassed about this thing smoking and told him i was going to drive it home right way and pull it apart,,,bob
  15. Man my wife did Reno Tahoe oddisy relay race this weekend she comes back exhausted cranky and dirty I had to pick her up at the airport yesterday and I tried my best to be civil all I heard was raw raw raw all she did was bitch at me about everything finally after 10 minutes of biting my lips wound up in a screaming match did the best I could to avoid conflict couldn’t take her any longer got into a screaming match anyway trying to avoid it as hard as I could… totally blew a fuse anyway… she always comes back with the same pissy attitude… bob
  16. Well, I pull loaded down triple trailers across 80 top out at 66 miles an hour I would be pissing myself to be able to pass anybody flat ground or hill… my personal opinion on jacking up your engine is like mentioned very old and hard to get parts for I wouldn’t do it, but each his own If you really need more power, I would go for a 600cummins Bob
  17. Could actually pick up a couple about 200 miles from there I’m sure it’s a lot more than bolting them on that would make it too easy … bob
  18. Chevy41 was going to help me get a couple of hubs that hold the hubcaps shipped out here… but he disappeared shortly after bob
  19. They probably can’t find the right clips. The back is easy. I’m thinking of putting them on my truck. Just have to make up my own clips Just a thought I don’t know about actually do it
  20. yes, a good part of them have air start and spoke wheels look like they’re ready for some hard work and Geoff,,, I really like the looks of them on the trailers. I grew up in New England worked in a truck tire.shop in 73 and that’s all I ever worked on was split rim spoke wheels… bob
  21. Yes, Mecho, I’m sure we were all wondering the same thing. What does that supposed to mean ????? Sounds like a Jimmy…. Older Cummings .. fan had pretty loud howl to them I ran a lot of them back on the 70s…
  22. what do they say,,,,pictures worth a thousand words,,,bob
  23. That sounds dangerous, but pallet Jack almost look like it was made to fit under neath the triplex I got real lucky. The pilot shaft went right in to the disc so easy I couldn’t believe what I was looking at.
