other dog Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Hey, is anybody going to Winchester this year, besides me, Barry, Farmer52, Fyxmn, MHFred, 41Chevy,Freightrain,Mowerman, and nocluejoe66? It's Sep. 22,23,and 24th. I would have went to Lincolnton,N.C. today if i'd known it was truck show day. I had an eye Dr. appointment yesterday, and could have left right afterwards...if i'd only known! Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

HarryS Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I plan on going to Winchester at least one day, either Friday or Sat. I went to Somerset, VA today. It was mostly a steam and tractor show, lots of interesting things to see, but oh so hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Wife and I plan to be there... It's about a four hour drive for us, but we have a few friends that will be there, and tell us what a great show it is. Hope to see you all there.

Popular Post maint1 Posted September 11, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2016 Suzie and I are going to Winchester, went to Lincolnton, saw Brocky, and this little 50 LJ followed me home. Picked up the KB11 in NC yesterday for some parts. It was a nice time. Ashton drove the Pete over. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmer52 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Affirmative...I plan to arrive around noon on Thursday and depart Saturday afternoon. Going to "rough it" and sleep in the trailer both nights. Not sure if Capt. Barry will be there. You all missed a great Trucktoberfest on Saturday. But it was HOT!

other dog Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 I don't know yet whether i'll leave Friday or just drive up and back Saturday, but i'll do one or the other. And yeah, this heat has been awful. I just seen on the TV machine the other day that we'd set a new all time record for the most consecutive days with a high of over 90 degrees. It was thirty-some, I don't remember exactly. They said the month of July was the hottest ever, and I didn't hear anything about August, but i'd be surprised if it wasn't the hottest August ever too. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Mike Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I think from what I was told that the Hottest Day was when the Biker Gang showed up unexpected. Now that was what I heard. Things got to smokin inside of a K/W to. Now that was what I heard. Can't prove that by me.Guess I would have had to go to the eye doctor to for starring too much.

farmer52 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Back at the farm. Great show. Over 300 vehicles. Weather was warm on Thursday and Friday but cooler today (Saturday). Saw other dog, Underdog, maint1, and mhfred. BTW, I "roughed" it two (2) nights. Slept on the sleeper mattress in the trailer. Best sleep I had in months! 1 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Maney Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I was there but didn't see you. We've seen each other quite a bit lately, I don't want people to start talking. 2 Quote Interested in Old Trucks?

My dad passed an old red cabover single axle. I showed him your pic and he figured it was you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was sometime around there he bobtailed down to get a trailer so he could sleep in today. Its really encouraging to hear how much "you guys" run these trucks. I know driving mine last week really wanted me to hurry up and get mine going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 since putting in the new engine a few years ago, I wouldn't hesitate to drive that F model anywhere. I would like it to run a little bit faster , it is happy about 60 miles per hour. Fast enough for me, but not quite enough to keep up with traffic. Winchester is about the longest trip I've taken with that truck. An axle ratio change may be in the works as soon as I get my other project cleaned up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobert62 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Our work trucks are shut off at 63. Some days it feels like your gonna get run over. My B should run right around 60 my air ride cutoff has 430 gears and I have 12r22.5 drives with a direct duplex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 It was a great weekend! Definitely worth the trip. Good to see Farmer52, Maint1, Doug Maney, finally got to meet the OTHER Dog! And especially glad MHFred made it to the show relatively unscathed. Good to see you too, Neil! I finally made it down your way for a change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maint1 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 All good Farmer, had a great time, headed over to Indiana today to pick up a Superdog with a KT Cummims in it. Looked a little rough, but had a KT with 20,000 miles since overhaul. Day Cab. I saw that B sleeper at York, sweet truck and really nice people, he drives for Walmart. Send you some pics tomorrow of the day cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
