  5. Woke up this morning late. I slept around four hours extra now. I’m drinking coffee trying to figure out OK how am I gonna get started here?
  6. I actually did a little team work , right around the time I started using that somebody kept calling me that dock hand in phoenix Because I used to live there Im thought hey it might be a pretty good CB handle
  7. I thought somewhere around 3 million. I don’t know. I never really thought about it. I really never had an accident except the collided with a girl that ran a red light about 35 years ago and a few yard scrapes bob
  8. Keep an open ear find out what everybody else is doing
  9. Ha ha yes I was thinking that I don’t know. I don’t really have a whole Lotta issues right now. I never have but I’ve been saying for years. I’ve been very fortunate and probably sometime in the future. Hopefully later everything will just fall off at once. I am still planning on going out there every year somewhere or another. I’m just thinking of maybe watts next year Macungie is too big
  10. sucks at least it’s not cold yet but you at least plug in the refrigerator and the TV
  11. That each model looks like a toy compared to kens truck
  12. Oh shit that looks very sore and itchy
  13. He was pretty cool. I really liked him . Very talented. I heard he wasn’t doing so good couple of weeks ago. Willy’s roadhouse was wondering how it was gonna turn out. I guess we know now rest in peace bud.
  14. Excellent everybody else pretty much said it all
  15. Also good deal on the transmission. I was just looking at mine out there in the backyard and thinking I suppose when I get to that I’m gonna have a few issues….
  16. Wow, almost missed this. Yes, same here, Matt and thanks for all your posts. I’m sure I speak for all of us. Clearly, nobody noticed it…… And yes hippy I was also a sub hauler 83-90 ….. bob
  17. First day off at Saturday forever from here on, and I’m even thinking about telling Fedex goodbye altogether the choice may be mine I just heard it tap into your 401(k) if you start working while you’re collecting it these greedy pigs got you coming and going. Thanks for the good cheer, Paul.
  18. And yes, there’s a lot of shit I can do around the house. I really don’t even have to try to find something. There is plenty to do right in front of my face.
  19. Thanks for that Bob yes, I am already ready to spend a lot of time on that Mac all day every day. I should have at least the nose pretty much cleaned up ……next. I’m gonna start on the transmission and the exhaust by that time it’ll be too cold to work. With body supplies Some people don’t realize Reno has the four seasons it’s not anywhere near as bad as your area
  20. I’m fixing on pulling off the fuel lines Monday and running them down to the hydraulic shop. That thing won’t start at all right now and it’s driving me crazy if nothing else I can’t move it around to where I like to sand it.
  21. I’m out running around with the old lady today. Don’t have to worry about burning up my weekends. I have every day off now thanks for that Larry.
  22. Hell, I didn’t even notice the damn things I had to scroll back to see what you were talking about ha ha thanks for that but kind of following this. I really don’t have any advice, for this guy. Oh, I could think of except for the obvious everybody has already brought up. Maybe the fuel pump was dried out too long damage. The pistons inside last one I bought was $2500 exchange and that was 40 years ago. 237 Maxidyne
  23. As you mentioned, it’s pretty much trouble free there’s not a whole lot that can go sour and yes, I remember those vertical air tanks. I got mine off an old freight truck T100 Kenworth. In fact they wound up going to work for the same company a few years later used to be Viking freight lines Now it’s Fedex freight Oh hell, I think we’re stepping all over this guy‘s tread now perhaps got him talked into air starter ha ha.. bob
  24. Thanks for all that. I think that was the problem I had I couldn’t get mine running not enough cranking power but I think I had mismatched batteries. I just decided to get rid of it all and put the air starter in. I’ll tell you what that starter was not cheap. I think I paid it thousand dollars 30 years ago exchange but yes after all these years that thing hold air forever.
