Popular Post other dog Posted June 7, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2014 Geez, i've been running my ass off this week, like these two women here-I went to Canton and back, Milton and back, Ambridge and back, then went from Roanoke to Petersburg yesterday and brought a load back to the yard.Saw this wrecker at Alta, W.V.Wild turkeys in the field just down the road from here.Mill roll I picked up Tuesday. It was quite a job chaining this unit down- I did it all standing on the ground.They won't let you get on the trailer at Gerdau-Ameristeel for any reason. They don't care if you fall off the trailer, just do it somewhere else and not on their property. Usually the rolls are in a rack like this-and i'll just strap it and leave and go across rt.1 to the big dirt parking lot by the store and chain them, but this one wouldn't fit in a rack because of the big block on the end of it and I was afraid to go without chains on it. Had to set it on 4x4s in coil racks. The bearing was bad in that block and it wouldn't turn and they couldn't get it off, that's why it had to go to Milton.I saw a dog at Lee-Hi.A burned up truck on the W.V. Turnpike.Nice looking IH at the mill.A girl in a car.Later, that same day, I saw another girl in another car.Nice looking 3000 White in Canton.Freightrain might know this truck. Nice looking car hauler and drag car in Canton, but it was blurry.Big Mack at Newcomerstown Truckstop.Units in Roanoke-Big ape in Dover. 8 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

41chevy Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 The tractor and trailer in Roanoke are both nice. Tractor a Dodge ?

41chevy Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I thought MACK with the access panels on the side of the nose. The painted/modified(?) grill gives it the Dodge look. I see I'll have a lot of "shopping" to do when we get all moved to Virgina....Hot Damn!!! 1 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post other dog Posted June 7, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2014 Bonus pic of the day...I asked Morgan the other day if Graham ever played with the Cat loader and dump truck we got him for Christmas. He said yes, but he wanted to get on everything and ride it now- he'll be two Tuesday. Since the Cat toys will break easily, when we saw a little ride-on Tonka toy today at a sidewalk sale in Altavista, we circled back and bought it- for $2. It's got batteries in it, and it's got turn signals, a horn, beepers, and all kinds of sounds that work.Now I need to find another one for Graham to play with.I did get him another Cat toy to go with his collection too.It lights up too, and makes engine sounds, shakes, rattles- I don't know if the blade moves because it's still in the box, but he likes anything that lights up and makes noise. 3 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Mike Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Can you find me a B Model that I can ride on at a garage sale? I would like a red one with a trailer. Make sure it has batteries.mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep EHU, if the wheel base is factory and not cut it could be an EHUS. That will be one of my first stops when we get settled in this fall. Course I'm already in dutch with the mrs's for the AC I saved from the scrappers yesterday. It's got the hard to find Good-Year pneumatic tire conversion on it. 1 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
