  3. i believe most of coolant comes mixed these days,,,it says it right on bottle,,and no you cannot run just water,,,,of coarse its ok just temporarily bob

  5. haha yes it is,,,,dave up close that truck was a show winner,,,,like a lotta full restorations,,,they didnt overlook anything
  6. dont know if you fellas remember this,,,a few years back,,,,they caught a egg plant pulling that and they got in a lotta trouble over it,,,,after investigations,,,,discovered it was all a scam,,,there was no shortage of eggs at all
  7. the steering wheel looked to be a little darker green,,,i was thinking the restorer had the same issue,,,,couldnt find a clean replacement,,,had to repair and paint that one,,bob
  8. i dont know why i didnt get interior pics,,,i think i was a afraid id get hollered at for climbing up in it,,,i did open the door and it was also detailed inside absolutely gorgeous
  9. Sometimes I wish I could just twitch my nose like bewitched and have that thing just as cherry as the one of the Mack Museum
  10. Not sure what happened because we didn’t have any problem getting chicken or eggs here the prices rise slightly not even really enough to even notice but as I mentioned, our gasoline is out of control and all of California prices range from 4:15 to 4:80 It’s ridiculous
  11. I think this was last summer TJ Boston was taking in thousands of them and nowhere to put them. The mayor is a girl and from what I understand nobody knows how she got elected.
  12. I gotta go for a blood work first thing in the morning routine checks no coffee Uuuuurrrr
  13. Got gym class in a little while and then back on the box it’s supposed to be 100° but it beats freezing to death
  14. I don’t know what the weight is on the tandems but at one time somebody change both drop ins they are a different color than the housings as far as bumper. It will be painted black if I live that long, we have a steel yard here in Reno that sells by the weight I will just go down there and grab a chunk oh something that looks good
  15. I’ve probably mentioned I’ve made a bunch of bonehead maneuvers in my life. I could’ve been sitting in paradise with millions, if I was to make the right move at the right time but who knows eats at me as much as selling my 62 Ford wagon 490 it only had 78,000 miles on it. Yes I’m still kicking myself and I sold that thing Around 35 years ago.
  16. Yes, I’m anxious to get back on the fiberglass and yes, I kick myself in the ass every day for not buying that nose for $150 that was in way better shape than this one. I was right there with a pick up truck and the money 300 miles from here That was a very dumb move But yes, it will be straightened out just a little bit more time than I thought a pretty anxious to get this box wrapped up and change that rear seal and get it out of the garage Funny you mention YouTube one we were on our ship cruise to Alaska last year. I had on a watts sweatshirt that had a super liner on the back and it said built like a Mack truck. I was hanging over the rail, taking a video. and somebody asked me if I was a tuber I laughed and said now I’m just a goofy site see er
  17. I probably posted this before. My sister and Boston was telling me the mayor was begging people to take illegal aliens in since there is a sanctuary city no, this was not my idea mayor it was yours you take them in.
  18. OK now that’s just hilarious. I could add much more but I’m gonna leave it alone. You pretty much said it.
  19. that is kind of screwy,,,and thanks for that
  20. well i tryed to pull apart the alternator,,,,removed the big nut,,,and couldnt move the pulleys,,,,and i dont have the correct puller to remove them,,,,no play in the bearings ,and she spins free so ill just let it be,,,besides.it currently charges 14 volts,,,,ill worry about it down the road,,,,,after i get the truck somewhat restored frankly i dont think this truck will ever travel far enough to wear it out,,,more clean up tomorrow i used to have a cam bearing puller,,,i dont know if i still have it,,,,i might have givin it away,,,since i bought it 40 years ago for a 324 olds engine and i never used it,,,bob
  21. well Mackey,,,,thiers a number of them filling the seat,,,that did absolutely nothing to improve this place both sides,,,,think positive,,,bob
  22. He used to be on here all the time. I don’t know if you remember him I actually met him one time. He was walking his dogs right by my house. I don’t know where he lives, but I know it’s gonna be really close to me. He posted his dogs a few days before that and I happen to see a guy walking with the same two dogs and I asked them if he was Russ he says yes. That was a long time ago.
  23. touché TJ
