  1. Dean, God was looking over you shoulder during that Hurricane!!!! Even though your son lost his house and you lost a lot of things I can see that He saved a lot or irreplaceable items for you.. I hope you have many of the saved pictures in a album.. Looking forward to talking with you at Dacusville.
  2. It is well "Crafted"!! Is her name "Chris"????
  3. Mrs Mack, The man who made those swans is definitely an Artist!!! Especially on how he painted them..
  4. You are NOT supposed to quit until the job is DONE!!
  5. You all are "City Boys"!!! Until the early 60's we had a single crank phone in the house. A big black box on the wall that had an ear/mouth piece like you dial phone. 12-15 party line and you heard every bodies ring!! Our neighbor still had the taller rectangle box with the mouth piece on the front and the ear piece on a cord..
  6. Contact and send some pictures to the Gary Mahan Foundation in New Jersey. Google him.. I think he has a website???
  7. That picture is from Jerry Ayres in Roanoke VA with a VA plate on it. He has a lot of restored Macks. So if he has not restored / refurbished it yet, it will not be lost..
  8. Hippy, My thoughts exactly!!!! Welcome to BMT
  9. Does your shop know the difference between a cracked block and a cracked liner??
  10. It seem like ALL the people that the Dumbocrats have running fall into that category!!
  11. If you are an ATHS member you can get into their website.. All of the old WOT's are archived in digital form there. I remember that I saw some of the original typewritten newsletter type ones. No idea on how to search them????
  12. Only IF the Republicans can maintain their lead in congress😒
  13. Bob' I have been working this part time landfill box site gig for 7 1/2 years now. Basically it is "on call", like the day or two before, although I have had ASAP's when someone calls in sick, but sometimes I get a weeks notice when one of the regulars takes vacation. Usually about 5-6 days a month. Our county has 10 of these sites and I have worked at all 10!!! The boss is active in a custom car club so when I say I have to be at a truck show or meeting it is no problem.
  14. Depending on the chemical property's of your water, be sure to use some additive or a filter with additives. This will help both your water pump and cylinder liners..
  15. Tom That improved to CH immensely.. Have you advertised the GMC anywhere much??? Possibly now that it is running OK you can sell it before you spend any money on the sleeper???
  16. It is in the mid 90's with a heat index well over 100 here.. I am still working at the landfill box sites part time. Only 5 hr shifts in a fan equipped shanty..
  17. Same here!!! Talked myself right out of trimming trees and spraying Round UP....
  18. Vlad, You are doing great!!!! For being a native Russian your English is better than some of us... I wish to Thank You for all the travel and build topics you have posted..
  19. Rick, from that short description it sound like worn forks or the small forks at the bottom of the shift lever are worn and jump out???? Next time you pull the tower take some good pictures of all of the above.. I had a 1959 Diamond T 921 Cab over that they told me would not go into reverse, turned out to be just an universal joint in the linkage.. I am sure some one here can help you better.
  20. Hippy, Bulk Fertilizer!!!! Which can be considered an oxidizer or corrosive....
  21. I have seen a Cummins water pump that the fins were complete gone away due to acid water and not enough additives..
  22. Goeff, you are my type of parts man!!! You still have the books and can read them... Sadly ALL of new new kids can NOT!!!!! If your VIN number is not in the computer they are lost.. A few years ago the Car Quest man here in town got me a water pump for my 55 Ford F-600 with a 239 Y block only because he still had his old books out back..
  23. I would put the bull bar back on!! You have a lot of deer in North Carolina..
  24. You might have to find a parts house that stored the old books out back and an old man who can read them!!!!!!!!!!!!
  25. Get a part time job for min wage so you get used to getting out of the house and away from TV and Computer!!!!
