    Vlad I am glad to hear that Randy and family served you a good American Thanksgiving turkey dinner!! Did he serve some good PA Dutch Scrapple with your eggs the next morning??? Continue to enjoy your stay in the States.

    If you have never been there put the America on Wheels museum in Allentown PA on your list.. Covers a little bit of everything from horse and buggy to modern high dollar sports cars with a lot of Mack stuff in between. I think Mack's 1910 Brockway is there? Mack cutout drivetrain parts, one room describing a restoration, and the time I was there, the day after Thanksgiving, a model railroad club had one room full of a big set up.

    If you send a sample to Bub Warren (lilyellowbus37@gmail.com) 1620 South Johnson St, Amarillo Tex 74102. Phone 806-374-3056. He owns the Diamond T Rubber company and can build anything. He may already have the template as I heard he was making Mack, Federal and some others.

    A while ago someone was asking confirmation of coming ATHS National Shows. The ATHS BOD meting in Kansas City last weekend confirmed: 2020 as Springfield Ill and 2021 at Harrisonburg VA. No details yet as exact venues. Will update more as I learn more.

    I am another who chase You Tube for older entertainers. One of my favorites is Australian country singer the late Slim Dusty. Plenty of trucking songs as well. One title of interest here is "I am married to my Bulldog Mack". Many of his videos have stills or video of Australian trucks.

    Eddy Lucast over on Just Old Trucks has a KBS clear coat which will protect the present patina.

    I am guessing that that picture was taken at the ATHS Heart of Dixie chapter show in Gunthersville Alabama on a pier out into the Tennessee River???

    We walked down and did the old visitors center but it was too late in the afternoon to do the inside tour.

    Same here!! and also say Hello to the Redhead..

    My Diamond T 201 has the Clark rear on 7.50 X 16 spokes.. It is screaming at 40 (+/-) MPH!! I do not drive it much on the road as I do not trust the brakes that far to stop 5000 pounds.. If he plans on driving it much Jim's idea of an overdrive box is probably easier/cheaper than trying to change the rear??

    Thanks Ken.. It is in the works!! ATHS and travel agent Stephanie Anton, santon@cruiseplanners.com , are working on working on another Down Under Tour to the Truckie's Reunion at Alice Springs in 2020. Stephanie did an excellent job of putting together the two week 2015 Tour which not only was the Hall of Fame in Alice Springs but included many normal tourist sites as well as the Tony Champion Mack Collection and 4 more private collections in the Melbourne area. My report on the whole trip is here: http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/84264/Down-Under-Trip If anyone is interested in going contact Stephanie to get on her mailing list.

    I still have a flip phone (almost new) and it resides in the cup holder in my truck..Road emergency or work related only.. very seldom use it.. and erase missed calls unless it is a number I recognize..

    Jim, Thank You.. Mr Saunders collection does some fine pieces. BUT I personally think he over does the Bling!! There was not that much chrome in that era, especially on working trucks??

    CG, Not entirely.. The Triple Nickel is a lot smaller than a 8-71 or 903..
