HeavyGunner Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 I dont know what that Jersey Boys trailer is all about but it does say its on tour so I am being childish and judging a book by its cover and hope it passes on thru. I saw an advertisement for the Jersey Shore and if that trailer has anything, absolutely anything to do with that show I hope they keep on trucking and pass thru the Big Sky. That is really cool that you got to hang out with at the stables at Anheiser-Busch.

JTFormula Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Jersey Shore and Jersey Boys are two VERY different things. As said before the Boys is a good show. The Jersey Shore is about a bunch of Ass Hats. I live down at the Jersey Shore and if you went to Seaside (the town they film in) it is pretty much like what you see on TV. I am about 12 miles from there. Every once in a while you catch the film crew in a local restaurant shoot scenes for an up coming episode. Most of the locals stay out of cameras range and don't want to be associated with those fools. 1 Quote ~ JT Burkard ~ AKA Sweaty Mack www.jonathanthomasmotorcars.com Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/26051-this-weeks-pictures/#findComment-127168 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 What is a western R? How does it differ from other R's?The "western" series truck for the most part used straight running frame rails and they did not "splay" out under the cab becomming wider at the front than the rear of the truck. They also used an aluminum grille plate that was solid in the front over the radiator. The "eastern" type trucks used a radiator mounted grill or shutter assembly the did not tilt with the hood. This was not 100%, but mostly through the production runs. The later production "Valueliner" series used was an eastern produced truck with the front aluminum plate that was several pieces where the "western" trucks used this plate as a single piece.This is my "Western" RL797L, and the grille panel I've spoken of:Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Lots of floatation devices in there if you got tired.
