  1. Not even sure if this is the same guy I do remember the last video he posted of driving it. It sounded real good, but it was the LJ … bob
  2. But Block I forgot all about that
  3. Gotcha I don’t travel very far just put in a ton of hours … bob
  4. Hell I would like to have one just for a yard ornament.. bob
  5. I think I have at least one of those on mine that has a variety 10 tires. Every one of them is different.
  6. Well, my Yankees sure took a big dump this season one and nine right now right at the bottom …GEEEEEEESUS!!!!!!!!! Bob
  7. Sorry, no suggestions I’m sure there’s a lot out there you can use and will also look time correct good luck probably sounds totally bizarre. But why don’t you try Google search.… Bob
  8. Hey, welcome aboard sorry are usually don’t come to this area. They tell me you could contact the Mack museum in Allentown for all that kind of stuff. Good luck…. Bob
  9. That would be a little easier to deal with than up over the engine bob
  10. You know, I think there was an episode of leave it to Beaver with one of those in it for 38 Mack seems like the Christmas story also had something like that when the kid gets his tongue stuck to the pole
  11. I understand some of the guys are telling me they’re putting these things under a camper category because of the size and Weight non-commercial. Good luck. I’m sure you’ll probably figure it out by now… Nevada has antique commercial so I don’t think I’ll have an issue but not everybody is that lucky. Bob
  12. Hell I must’ve missed that photo of all of brand new cross members beautiful job. Thanks for sharing. Bob
  13. Oh by the way that was the early years after a while I would make sure I got at least 5 1/2 to 6 hours of sleep then no problems at all and nowadays with the E logs you can’t really run around the clock anymore anyway
  14. I am assuming most of that was staged when they were pulling the guy out of the b model I was thinking my God don’t show me dead people and then I got thinking that was all filmed to make it look that way I drove nights for 40 years and I am no saint either. I have completely dozed off more than once. Luckily nothing ever came out of bed. I woke right up again.
  15. The more I think about it, it might be easier just to cut a hole in the fiberglass and pull the plate out and replace it but we’ll see what happens frankly, I’m hoping I could turn the studs and wind them out…. Bob
  16. Yes, that’s the plan Paul right now. I’m just spraying the hell out of them with WD-40 tapping them around hoping maybe I can grab a hold of us studs and work them back-and-forth really slow you know take my time stop them spray them. No big hurry. I’ll work at it for a few weeks, if not next step drill them out and try easy outs or re-tap. Not sure if you understood that steel plate is inside the fiberglass and I can’t get to it without cutting a hole and pulling the plate out and replacing it. But I’m going to try the other two ideas first I hope that makes more sense.
  17. That was excellent. Thanks for that.
  18. Certainly a lot there to work with. Good luck bud.
  19. It looks like it has a compression release. It probably does .. sucker looks pretty clean. Thanks for the post.
  20. Mostly freight trucks, so nobody really ran anything that old even then it was old ha ha… bob
  21. Not sure if I mentioned this but I have not even set in one except for one and a wrecking yard and my hometown they had a lot of big rigs. I was only around 15 years old 1971 or so even then I was thinking man this sucker is cool. Even then the turnpikes were nothing but U R and F model
  22. So it looks like I don’t really have any choices except for cutting a hole in the fiberglass to remove this chunk of steel if I wind up breaking all three screws, I am doing my best not to do that
  23. From what I can see, it’s a piece of metal tapped out because there’s two rivets on the side of it holding it in and in place at least I’m assuming that’s for the two rivets are doing clearly they put the rivets in before they glued all the pieces together. Thanks for that Larry.
  24. Hell, I think it’s gonna look like it’s ready to work.. bob
  25. Also, hats off on your fabulous work, keep them coming by friend …. Bob
