My brother was 18 and died 2 months before my son was born, that was 18 years ago and my mom still has moments.

Family? Here we are all family that is why I posted it. Thank you Rob. I will keep everyone updated on the details as they come in.

At 5:30 this morning my 3 month old granddaughter was found dead. Her mom (my step-daughter) laid her on the sofa this morning and put a blanket on her to keep her warm and prevent her from rolling off of the sofa. Said that she went to get her and she was cold and blue, that she may have suffocated in the blanket. Coroner is investigating.

Our Monte has the much better 3800 engine and the only issue we have is that thing above the rear wheel for the vapor system needs replaced and it's sent a code and tripped the CEL. No rattles, only that vapor thing and a burnt out light on the heater control. Wife has always loved high horsepower cars and I don't argue.

Wife had a '94 T-Bird with a 4.6 liter V8 years ago. You would put it in drive and take your foot off the brake and it would sit and turn the tires in winter. Now she drives the 2003 Monte Carlo SS Pace Car and it does a little better 'cause it's a front driver. The '91 Cougar I got has the 5.0 liter in it and It is like the T-Bird!!!! Can't wait till I get my pick-up fixed!!

Glad that she is OK. A rustang? C'mon Rob, daughter driving a RWD in winter! Wait I forgot, she is your girl. Is she helping on the trucks?

Prayer's are always welcome. Like I said, the truck is named Faith for a reason. Thank you Mike.

Went full time on the boo-boo bus on Monday I put in 64 hours this week!!! Lynn is a lot happier and worries less now. Just heard that East laid off another 25 people, so the outlook of them calling me back by June is bleak. I think I'll stay on the ambulance and push them to make me a supervisor. Thank you everyone for your support

Sounds to me like a difference between plants, suppliers, build specs., lowest bid, repairs over the years, etc.

We got a "letter of intent" last month and had till the 16th to make a payment. We were there. I worked enough call in to get us enough for a payment. I put in 54 hours this past week so I'll be OK. I don't want the wife to give up school. She is getting it for nothing now but the cost of books and gas. It hurts 'cause she can't work as many hours as normal.

The firewall of my A has the original red paint still showing but the interior is green. I remember that all IH trucks had gold colored interior, Mack had green. Usually the inside of the glove box door is still good for a color match as they aren't sun faded.

Happy B-day!!!!!!!!! I get hammered 'cause the wifes is the 12th. I wish her a happy birthentines day.

Thanks. We've been a month behind since 2007 lay-off so that was no big issue. Been off this time since June and that was starting to hurt. My truck is named Faith for a reason.

Made a house payment so that keeps the dogs off the door. Now I'm only 2 months behind . The private ambulance I work for is putting me on a full-time shift starting Monday . My other part-time medical job will probably start their second shift back up in March . If the boo-boo-bus job gives me the shift I want I'll be able to work both for a while and not get burnt out . 42 hrs a week on the ambulance and possibly 20-30 a week at the medical trailer.

That takes too long ! Punch a hole in the can then quickly toss it in and slam the door! Drink an adult beverage and go in later with a razor blade and clean the gauges you need!

Do you want a new one or a really good used one? If there is a body installer in the area ask about a take-off. These are newer parts that have to be removed to accomodate a body and they sometimes sell the stuff cheap! Also ask around about scratch and dent items.

Your friend could work out the deal and not put the title in his name. That might save the double tax, or he could gift it to you. I would have him make the deal then have him drive it to the end of the property and get out so they could see you get in and drive it away!!

You need a "straw buyer" for it. Get someone to buy the truck on your behalf and screw 'em!!!!

That's a cab for an "R" but the front end looks like special Aussie design for the twin steer. Looks to be a real beast. Probably short heavy runs and not for road train use. Hope it's warm there, it was -2 degrees fahrenheit this AM.

I think the cable drive tach runs off of the distributor. Check and see if the distributor has a second output. If it is diesel it may drive off the alternator. It depends on the engine. A dual distributor ignition may use one for each tach. If it is gas power and you want a second tach I would use a Stewart Warner as they look correct and were used by a lot of manufacturers as original equipment. Hope it helped some.

In order to run a "model year plate" in Ohio you first have to have a historical plate then you file to run the model year. You must still have on you the historical plate. You do not have to display it. I keep mine behind the seat. I drive my truck to stuff other than shows or gathering and have never been hassled. If a cop would ever stop me and ask I will tell him it needed run, or I just tuned it up, or out getting gas. The limited use clause includes special events. I drive it to work once in a while or out to dinner. I've used my truck for things that were not hobby related, but maybe they are? Old flatbed hauling stuff? My stuff? In my one pic she is loaded with 6 big, wet, round bales of hay. Farmer guessed at 2000lbs each for a total of 12,000 on the truck. It was late March, cold, muddy, late in the day, overwide, no permit, and we didn't get to our destination till after dark! Hauling hay was a deal made to board our horse. I hauled 2 big pallets of patio stone. Hauled two loads of lumber. First one was stacked cab high, all treated dimentional, second was untreated and half as high. This is for my deck addition. The truck has a 12' bed and I had on 16' boards. Red flagged it and motored home. Made the lumber yard nervous loading but I told them,"don't worry about the bed but DO NOT hit the cab!!" I do not know the difference between historical or collector. I don't know if Ohio has a collector plate. Get the historical and drive it . Go better and restore a year plate and hang it so everyone knows the year of your iron!

I may crack the lines because the replacement was at the master cylinder. I took out the line-lock for some needed room under the dash. I was going to set the shoes out tight so bleeding would be true. I know that a lot of time is wasted pushing the shoes out trying to get a firm pedal.

My wife is giving me a hard time," Look at you, hard a** former Marine on the Mack forum trading recipes! Have you gone soft?" I don't dignify her with an argument 'cause she may be right.

Yes I think Rob knows his gas!
