Popular Post HarryS Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 Had a van pull in the driveway this morning and a young girl ( maybe 20-21) gets out with a handful of pamphlets walking toward me. She was from the Jehovah's Witnesses and started her pitch. She looked in the garage and asked "is that an antique Mack truck". From that point on the conversation was about Macks and how her father loved them. I took her brochure and told her to bring her father by some time. Here's shot from whre she was standing. I was impressed she knew her trucks. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmerrill0516 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Nice garage. It looks like you have quite a few signs in there. Love the color on the Mack...I'm headed that way myself with mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I started collecting signs before the Pickers ran the prices up. I think your truck will be awesome in yellow. It makes them stand out.

other dog Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 We have a Jehovah's Witness that stops by here about every 2 or 3 weeks. I went to a Baptist church myself and I don't even know what Jehovah's Witnesses believe that's different, if anything, but I don't hide like some people when they come by- I actually enjoy talking to Ed. He always asks about work, trucking, the weather, the garden, and so on. He doesn't stay too long, reads a bible verse before he goes, leaves the pamphlets, and is on his way. Real nice guy. 2 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post randyp Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 I have a few talents,,(very few) and painting and sanding aint one of them, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express the other night, and I did sit on a hill 4 days mornings ago and bust a 300 pound boar at 250 yards with M1 Garand and open sights on the first shot. To quote the honorable George S Patton,,,,"The M1 Garand is the finest battle rifle ever made, specially for hogs in the hands of randyp". Well,,,,He mighta maybe notta said that last part, but I bet he thought it. randyp 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryS Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 I'm not sure what the Jehovah's Witness religion is all about either. We see them, usually on a Sat morning once or twice a year. They are always cordial, especially if they want to talk about old trucks. Randy P, I think I was near your area a few years ago. I have a friend in Mt Pleasant that deals in antique Cadillac parts.

Popular Post HarryS Posted April 14, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 14, 2014 Thanks C609T. This is the only one I have right now. Seems like every time I pick up the camera the battries are dead or for some reason I can't get them on the computer. I'd like to get a phone that does all of that but I need some more courage to do that. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTFormula Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Nice looking B. that is a lean unit. As for the JW's, I avoid them like the plague. They come by our neighborhood once every few months. They are relentless. I just tell them I am happy with my beliefs and nothing they say will change my mind. I am not rude just very straight forward with them. Then I warn the other neighbors.

HarryS Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 The rear tires are mud & snow tread. They were on the truck when I got it. I thought they would be noisy but there are plenty of other sounds to drown them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
