  1. They are the same voters who claim they DID NOT vote for OBUMMA
  2. Please list your location and we should be able to help you with local shows..
  3. And to top it off!! Mother Nature is our Highway Superintendent!! She put it there, She will take it away!!
  4. The three all or a lot of Mack shows off the top of my head are: Macungie PA on father's Day weekend, The Gerhart's show in Lititiz PA in October, and the Macktoberfest at the Mack Museum Allentown PA in Late October. Toward the bottom of the Main Page is an Events Calendar where many local shows are listed. Keep an eye on it!!
  5. It is the 1950 to c.1960 International Harvester Compfovision cab. Many people used it, but with the set back front axle and headlight mounting I am going to guess Hendrickson or Diamond T??? That is a shop built "Oilfield" front bumper and possibly the headlight brackets also??
  6. Charles It is great to see you back on here.. Hope you have recovered from the virus OK?? Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Safe New Year!!
  7. Bob, When we ran Sparks in the later 90's we would go over to Balley's for their $4.95 or $5.95 Brunch Buffet. Then "Waddle" back to the truck and not need to eat again until the next day!!! Later in the mid to late 2000's, when we drove for Wrangler Blue Jeans, we had a trip to the VF/Wrangler salesperson's conference, with all the clothes and conference material, at the RIO hotel in Las Vegas. The buffets were $12 to $18, outrageous!!! It also happened to be NASCAR weekend and they had the machines shut down tight. My wife went thru $35 in the blink of an eye!! Sunday morning after we got everything reloaded, we stopped down around Searchlight for lunch. A $6.95 Prime Rib dinner and my wife made about $20 bucks off the quarter poker machine in a half hour..
  8. My wife and I used to run to Sparks NV (Reno) a lot.. Had to deliver 8 AM Monday then wait til 5 PM for our load out to LA. Went to the Alamo (now a Petro??) for a shower and breakfast. We set a limit at $20!! When it was gone we went back to the customer. Sometimes we left in an hour, other days we still had nickels or quarters in our pocket when it was time to leave.
  9. If it has moved to New York State I hope they can bring it to Macungie so all of us can see it in person..
  10. If you can figure out when it would be working hours up here in the States Eastern time give Barry a call or email him thru here..
  11. so Far it has NOT been posted!!
  12. If you are just pulling a camper I would not bother... BUT if you are running a lot of nights in Deer / Moose country you might need it??
  13. YEP!!!!!! I have only seen them on restorations..
  14. Very GooD!!! Thanks for taking the time to post all those pictures..
  15. WOW!! That truck is in Fantastic shape as well as being a rare mixer. It belongs in someone's collection just as it is!!!
  16. Congrats to an excellent pair of parents!!!
  17. I use Postimage also and use the "direct link" option to post a picture on here. When Just Old Trucks picture program was down I had to use the "thumbnail for forums" option, But on BMT all it gives you is a lot of words and no picture.
  18. Although they are East of you both Barry at Watts and Matt Pfahl might know of someone interested in swapping a tractor for a mixer?????
  19. That is a great looking original truck.. Before you go the Auction route I would contact Dave Coutu at the Keystone Museum, Colonial Heights VA, to see if they might be interested in it???? Many of us know him as he is the man who takes all their equipment to shows and is on this site once in a while as user: Maint1.. He might even know of a suitable B model tractor available to replace the mixer??
  20. Call Barry at Watts Mack.. Phone # above!!
  21. I agree with Michael!! Keep it intact!!
  22. OK, I understand.. A slow mind in the morning??
  23. It must have had a smaller orifice in the valve cover to maintain oil pressure in the engine????
  24. His user name is Freightrain. Go to one of his posts and click on his user name which will get you to his profile and then you can either PM or email him.
  25. Hopefully Larry Freightrain will chime in?? He added a bunk to his B model but I think he stretched the frame also???
