  1. Yes, I remember buying a ball and an extension at a truckstop in Ontario California now a truckstop store looks like 7-Eleven nothing but sugar and salt. Ha ha. Funny thing most of them are packed with CB supplies and I don’t think the owners even realize nobody even wants that shit anymore.
  2. Why the hell didn’t I buy 10 of them when they were $100 bucks each….. speaking of trans stars I’ve never even driven one only rode in one one time … Bob
  3. Yes,same here here bud. I never really paid much attention to them either but now that they’re extinct all of a sudden they get a peeling. Again they were along with F model Mack’s and of course we were mainly staring at them that’s the way it is with me with the 64 galaxy when you could buy them for nothing all day long I wasn’t really focused on them. …: bob
  4. I am enjoying the snow from the living room sofa ha ha yeah as I mentioned, it been doing a pretty good job might as well just keep on going. Looks like you got most of it knocked out already. Anyway, looking forward to Eagles game.
  5. For some reason, the engine looks really small in that photograph
  6. Yes, I don’t think I would try it.. Bob
  7. I had the same question the company names. Thanks for clearing that up… Bob
  8. I have some old truck wheel cylinders i found years ago in the trash old company I worked for I took them home thinking they would probably come in handy sometime. I will post photos soon. It’s snowing out now here I don’t want to go outside.Bob
  9. But then you got so much labor into that thing now I guess you might as well just keep fixing it bob
  10. Yes, I noticed that really don’t have proper clothing either and yes Joey I was thinking the same thing throw in the towel and get yourself something else lol … Bob
  11. I quit messing with old Chevys years ago on account of the same reason outpriced themselves …. They took all the excitement out of it.. glad my Mack doesn’t really need a whole lot except little stuff mainly just alotta work that doesn’t cost anything
  12. No man that’s what I was far but thanks for asking not surprising I don’t think it means what it looks like Bob
  13. That’s amazing. This guys don’t even really have anything to work with…. Bob
  14. Not sure what you did but it looks real good now bravo brother!!!!!!
  15. You can even keep it in manual mode and shift up and down manually with a switch
  16. Haha got to agree that’s about the only thing is irritating is coming to a rolling stop have to wait for transmission to decide what it wants to do but all our trucks have up and down switches you can decide what you want most of the time
  17. I haven’t adjusted a break in 33 years jobs usually have work shop with mechanics that do i check brake shoes on Congers before I picked them up. I’m surprised never noticed that. Oooooooooooo you mean big old wierd fat man stuck on the past… Bob
  18. Well, never mind. Clearly, I don’t know what a 9/16 wrench would do either
  19. Clearly, they don’t need the money, Joey , so I’m sure they had a coddled upbringing and I am sure a dock work is not going to happen lol Bob
  20. Like, why would I carry a 9/16 wrench? Oh I don’t know the scale might be able to tell you ha ha.
  21. That’s one of my complaints about them Bubba guys like me earned them young punks just get to jump right in one right off the bat doesn’t seem fair…. Bob
  22. Yeah they squashed junior’s . Internet Caper in a hurry. Now I noticed the old man’s juicy story is slowly fading away as well. Bob
  23. Yes I am with you. I haven’t slept on my truck. In 32 years. The one thing I did like about it when you’re done you’re done you don’t have to drive anywhere just crawl in the back. Ha ha.
  24. Ha ha I can appreciate that although I didn’t think I was going to like the automatic …. Now I think it’s the best thing since sliced bread but I did shift trucks for around 44 years. Bob
