This is what I’m hoping for. I think you mentioned you were familiar with this outfit.

Well TJC recommended using rust oleum machine paint, so I’m going to go down and get a gallon of John Deere Green, and keep adding a little black to get it a little darker

Oh yeah, that’s just the way it was around 57 years ago I can still feel it kind of reminds me of when me and my pals decided to take a bite out of a dog biscuit. His mother gave him to give to the dog we all decided to take a bite just to see what it tasted like that was around 1964 and I can still taste it ha ha.

well we just got 10 brand new trucks 6 kenworths and 4 petes but thier twin drives and one pete hadda be towed in thursday stuck in nuetral at a traffic light and one of the kenworths had to be deadlined for and oil leak....so far the count is even lol.bob

well were the highest paid freight outfit out there and they give is two huge bonuses a year,,,cant much complain except the tractor bidding,,,doesnt add up to our expectations at all...bob

try to find one here....thank god my engine is pretty tight and doesnt need anything

im sure thier notes are way higher that my mortgage...bob

yeah i paid 78000 for my first house in california,,,brand new with a half acre,,,,now i understand people are paying that for a brand new F250 these days,,,,like whaaaaaaaaat??????

ever since covid everything has gone crazy,,,i just paid 479 a gallon to fill the mustang at chevron....GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESUS

yeah my pop was also allergic that sucks..ive only been stung by one once at around ten,,,,i do remember it hurt like a mo fo...im not going to do anything to it today had some running around this morning possibly tomorrow after a couple of morning errands..im all pumped up after jumping on it last weekend,,,,,anxious to continue on that nose thats been driving me crazy for almost 30 years then i backed into the house with the back corner or the cab,,,,put a dent in it i was so busy watching the mirror not to hit the siding,didnt notice the cab was heading right towards the roof of the house .bob

According to TJC my F150, I paid 23,000 for 15 years ago has only dropped 7000

Not here of course lots of them around the perimeter of the Statue of Liberty every which direction ha ha

That’s what I was thinking there’s a lot of them around both engines

Yes, mine had to be in gear main box auxiliary in neutral then there was a third lever for the PTO operation

Yes, since you’ve got 12 opinions, interesting to see which one works ha ha

I am just sitting here thinking wait a minute if the main box is not in gear, the auxiliary gears are not going to turn at all. Ha ha as I mentioned, I haven’t use my PTO and over 25 years. My DM used to be a dump truck took the body off years ago.

I’m thinking on my 66 it was man box in gear, auxiliary in neutral .. ancient post I’m sure this guy already got it figured out it’s been a long time since I had the dump body on it… Bob

I had the 300 in a 65 galaxy I didn’t have it long. I bought it for $100 and then sold it to my sister too bad you can’t find out for 100 bucks now but I do remember the engine was pretty peppy for a six banger… three speed on the column. Don’t see many of those nowadays, either… hey Tom, keep the truck ha ha. Bob

I’ll bet Joey Mack or Craig N might be able to help you good luck..: bob

Ha ha with all the hooray about the H model hell I almost forgot about that thing I was trying to figure out what you were working on ?????? Bob

I was just thinking my mom told me that way back in around 1964 when she was working for international house of pancakes back on those days they didn’t even call it IHOP yet and I am not even sure if they served anything other than breakfast back then.. Bob

Also, I would be working on the truck this morning after breakfast but I got to go turn in an application for a passport since we’re going on a cruise to Alaska next summer. I wanted to get it over with then my tractor is over at Kenworth air conditioner took a shit Three weeks ago and it’s still over there. They can’t figure out what’s wrong with it and I lost the tractor and the last bid. I mentioned that so now I have to drive all the way over there to get my CB and my XM out of it. I am a little pissed at around 12 miles from here and I really don’t feel like going over there . But I gotta get it done. since I’ll be down south of Reno anyway, it will only make it 5 miles out of the way each way that sounds a little easier. Ha ha.Bob

My wife travels to Boston quite a bit. She has grandbabies there my stepdaughter and her goofy husband she was telling me she still sees offsite Mack’s , still on the job I said that’s amazing

Do you know I’m not sure if I mentioned this or you noticed it but back a few miles the other away they seem to be a pretty big hit. I tried to sell it a couple of times out here and I couldn’t get anybody to even respond at all …twice I advertised it no takers, so I guess I’m stuck fixing it. Yeah that was driving me crazy I couldn’t figure out where they’re coming from and I am in swarming everywhere. It seem like they would get pissed if I try to go near that truck two or three of them just buzzing around me like hey bud get lost this is our area. Glad I found them. Believe it or not I really don’t like killing too many insects. I ordinarily just let them be y’all might think I’m crazy. I think it upsets the echo balance. That’s the case. I really didn’t have too many choices. Bob

Ok I think I found the motherload of hornets saw one flying in to an old shed I don’t use anymore and there was a huge nest maybe Hold 50 of them I sprayed the hell out of it they were dropping immediately maybe I can work on the DM shortly without them swarming all around me
