    Shop Talk

    I use Postimage like that also.
  2. Contact some of your friends in Vermont. 20 years ago I got the South Carolina title for my Diamond T that way. Also there used to be an outfit called Broadway Title in Birmingham AL who could get you a title..
  3. Are those all "B" doubles or is there an "A" hitch in there somewhere????????
  4. I have been to both as a tourist.. The price of everything is higher in Alaska as it has to be shipped in.. In Montana you can at least grow your own beef and pork!! I Did not care for the Reindeer meat in Alaska??
  5. TJC, you can NOT go north with out increasing your TAXES unless northern New England or Upper Midwest.. Wisc or Minn??????
  6. Any hot spot.. Most anywhere!! If your brake lite switch is under the back of the cab probably the starter is the closest. If it is near the foot pedal from the firewall or dash or a wire which leads to the HOT side of the ignition or light switch..
  7. TJC There is a very valid reason California is known as "the land of fruits and nuts"!!!!!!! And Bob described most of them!!! It would be the last place I would retire to!!!! And many of its neighboring states.. A retirement location all depends on what type of weather, dense city or sparse rural population, lay of the land (hills or flat), TAXES, and what services you receive from them, and the availability of places of interest to pursue your hobbies and lifestyle. Yeah, I enjoy my small house on 55 acres with out buildings here in South Carolina!!
  8. Dean, It was great to meet and visit with you Saturday.. Always nice to be able to put a face with a name..
  9. The brake light switch in your picture should be available at any parts house which deals in truck equipment.. You might want to take that old one with you to get the right pipe fitting thread size???
  10. Paul, Thanks!! Maybe the dates are not that screwed up, ours is early summer and yours in in the Spring..
  11. If you make it, stop by our tent and trucks and say HELLO!!!! Same for anyone else in the Western NC and Northern SC region..
  12. H67, Are you going to find time to bring a truck down to Dacusville tomorrow???? I am heading up there this afternoon to set up our display area.. Hope to meet you in person one of these days..
  13. Brian lives in California. He was sick of the world, of Covid-19, Trump, Russian belligerence, China, global warming, racial tensions, and the rest of the disturbing stories that occupy media headlines. Brian drove his car into his garage and then sealed every doorway and window as best he could. He got back into his car and wound down all the windows, selected his favorite radio station, started the car and revved it to a slow idle. Five days later, a worried neighbor peered through his garage window and saw him in the car. She notified the emergency services and they broke in, pulling Brian from the car. A little sip of water and, surprisingly, he was in perfect condition, but his Tesla had a dead battery. Brian is a registered Democrat.
  14. In the 80's and 90's Roadway Express, and probably some other carriers, had a lot of them so they could pull a set of pups into a terminal and pull a 45-48 footer out..
  15. Paul, I DO NOT think he will have a problem with rego as our rules are not a strict as yours, especially for antique / historical plates. The States do not have the "engineer" certification rule after every little change that you do..
  16. Almost looks AUSSIE!!!! Maybe Mrsmackpaul can help???
  17. It still has Dayton Spokes on the rear so those super singles, or they may be 425 steering tires, will come off and 11R22.5's go back on OK.
  18. I dug into my pile of business cards!!! Doug Fetterly, mactrucknut@netzero.net (No K in Mack) Harrisville NY 13648 (No Street/road) 315-543-2624 This is an Upstate NY area code so the other number above may be a FLA Cell phone???
  19. Here is my picture of the one that is "supposed" to be an original taken at the ATHS Palmetto Upstate chapter Dacusville SC show in September 2018. It was also at Brad Wike's Southern Classic show in Lincolnton NC the next weekend. If you can find the video titled Hollywood Hill of that weekend it will show it, the duel Pete, the Rubber Duck and the red and white KW COE from another TV show.
  20. The SC Special Olympics Convoy is Tomorrow Saturday the 27th at the Farmers Market in Columbia SC. Last year we had about 25 trucks which could be classified as Antique / Historic in with the 150 participants. I will be there with my Diamond T 201 as part of the static display and ATHS Member recruitment table.
  21. With the PA plates it is a replica. The real one either has NC or GA plates and has been to the SC Special Olympics Convoy and Brad Wike's Southern Classic show in Lincolnton NC
  22. Tom, Thanks for the pictures. That is one show I have never made>>
  23. Doug's summer location is Harrisville NY. Winter in Central Florida, A dedicated Mack man I know he was making battery boxes and might know of other parts.
