  1. Seed, Thank You for the video.. I take it that the shoreline shown is of a stronger rock than the sandstone of the 12 Apostles area we visited west of Melbourne??? Is that 2 lane highway all the way across rather than 4 lane Interstate??
  2. Also if you are a diabetic your Morning sugar numbers will go UP!! The next morning after I had the shot and first dose of pills I topped 300.. By the next day it dropped into the 200's and the third week (single pills) in the high 100's. Took another week after I was done to drop back into the 130-150 range..
  3. Frank, NO they will not!! The 22" rim is a tube type and the 24.5 is a Tubeless rim.. But as said above the 24.5 tubeless rims WILL fit on the 22" spokes..
  4. I am thinking that is what they gave me for something a few years ago.. I remember you had to take all of them in descending quantity..
  5. KDog, Without going into long and outdated information it was basically MONEY!!! The ATHS administration removed the control of the discussion forum part of their website from the ATHS members Online Division (Chapter) and replaced them with an outside contractor. If you want more concise info PM me thru here..
  6. JOT was formed/built/started after the ATHS administration "Tanked" the discussion forums on their website in about 2015. JOT has recaptured the sense of community that ATHS had and has grown because of it. Many of us are still ATHS members for various reasons but enjoy participating on JOT!!
  7. You guys must have been bigger "Outlaws" than we were up he in the States!!! 2 good sized crawler tractors on 4 axles... Was that binder petrol or small diesel???
  8. Seed, We had some notoriously dangerous roads up here in the States, But I doubt if they were ever as heavily traveled as the Hume was. Please keep the pictures coming, I am learning something new everyday.
  9. Also if his client is an ATHS member he can get a discount thru Haggerty
  10. Check with the Aussie Boys about Lizard Skin.. supposedly better than Dynamat??
  11. Contact Gary Mahan in Basking Ridge NJ or Matt Pfahl in Conn 203-266-6455 Both men are large Mack collectors and restorers and probably give you a good estimate. And may be on the insurance underwriters list of approved appraisers
  12. Put a lid on the opening and you have a cookie jar..
  13. I think it was more of a southern thing.. I remember the late Leroy Gurganus, of Jasper ALA, telling of driving school buses while in high school.
  14. Bub Warren, Diamond T rubber of Amarillo Tex stocks a lot of Mack Rubber pieces and can make anything you have a good pattern for. Phone 806-374-3056 days CT. email: lilyellowbus37@gmail.com
  15. Welcome Back!!! We hope your absence was only work related not health..
  16. Capt'n I hope you do not mind but I posted a link to your pictures over on the Just Old Trucks website here:: http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/162835/Gerhartss
  17. If you look at history, either local or world wide, you can see the winters in North America have become less severe. Are we still coming out of the ICE age many thousand years ago??? And remember that there must have been jungle on the present Arctic areas for there to be oil under them???
  18. Check with Tony Champion in Rockhampton QLD.. When I was there in August 2015 he had a big sign in the parts room saying he dealt in older Mack parts.. May be listed under Volvo Commercial Vehicles???
  19. You mean that I have to lock the slider after moving the tandems????
  20. Thanks for the pictures!! Looks like a beautiful day and a good turnout..
  21. High speed Black and White film.. Notice the tail rotor is blurred..
  22. I would NOT paint it!!! Today the original Patina is actually more valuable.. Buff and Clear coat or linseed oil?? As for the tires, if it has been stored inside and not weather checked bad they might be OK for a hobby truck?? Just add a flatbed and go truck showing!!!!
  23. Day and Night wrecker service out of Solvay (Syracuse) NY had their black and white paint scheme which had the whole truck divided in quarters and painted alternating squares.
  24. And on I-78 at exit 13 was Johnny's, which I think is now a Pilot, and a mile east of it was Louise's.. I remember when Louise's expanded / remodeled they built the new diner around the old one and then threw the old one out the windows and never shut down or missed a meal..
  25. I got an email from Eddy about 3:30 PM yesterday that said it was all Aaron's fault!!! The site is still not back up at 8 AM this morning??? Eddy must be pulling what hair he has left out..
