  1. And if you want an original look cut off the arm to the cam and plumb the electric thru it. That is what they did to my Diamond T.
  2. The thing that suprised me the most was that there was NO advance notice of this book happening in the last few issues of the Wheels of Time..
  3. Glad to hear you are out and about.. Take care and recover fully, our prayers are with you. Brocky
  4. Vlad Did you get the message that pictures from the whole trip are here?? http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/84264/Down-Under-Trip Brocky
  5. Tom Thanks for the pictures. Those West By God hills are still on my bucket list of places to go.. Brocky
  6. Good Luck with the new truck!!! I know what you mean about moving S##T!! Better when you can do it rather than the shop tossing everything in a 4X4 foot cardboard tote bin!!
  7. I must apologize to my fellow BMT members.. I had posted some of the Mack and Tony Champion pictures here but then posted the whole trip on the Just Old Trucks website and forgot to tell you about it.. In the process of getting our chapter newsletter written my feeble brain finally remembered y'all!! The whole trip is here, both trucks and tourist stuff:: http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/84264/Down-Under-Trip Brocky
  8. Randy Congrats on the purchase of history.. Will you have it a Macungie?? Will be looking for it!!
  9. Mike Do are doing better. If you are going to use the clutch, DOUBLE CLUTCH on every shift of either transmission!! When shifting both you actually have to triple clutch.. Watch your left foot in your video.. When you shift without remembering to double clutch is when you are getting the grinds.. If you have any other vehicles with a manual tranny always consuisly double clutch them also so that your left foot/leg just learns do it automatically.. There is basically no difference between the Tri and Quads as you do not use lo-lo for other than off road.
  10. Thanks!! I just wish I had your "Eye" for getting them framed and angled right.. You are a much better photographer!! Hopefully we can meet up at Macungie this year and have a cup of coffee, or go across the street for something cooler and wetter?
  11. Have used both PS and Howes, also had good luck with PFFP.. In the good old days we could add up to 25 - 40% kerosene!! I have mixed a lot of it bulk in one hole trailers for Agway in upstate NY..
  12. Jim He sure does!!! We spent all day there and still did not have time enough to look at everything real close.. He has imported a lot of trucks from the States as well as having a lot of Aussie vehicles. There may be some more here or different pictures here than what I posted on BMT. http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/84264/Down-Under-Trip Brocky
  13. Jim Great on the NH location.. Here is the inside of Tony's shop complete with a Holt and Cat similar to your pictures. Thanks Brocky
  14. Jim Where did you get the picture of the one with black fenders??? It looks like it was taken in Tony Champions shop, But the one in his display building is all red.. and does not have the amber fog lights like your one at Macungie??
  15. Since Maint1 who started this topic works for the Keystone Museum in Colonial Heights (Richmond) VA I would assume it is going there..
  16. As long as it is full of product when we catch up with you at Des Moines!!
  17. Paul I think (???) Howe Coleman in Troy / Albany was just a conversion company and the axles them selves were made in Colorado Here is a link to a lot of Coleman info: http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/22610/Coleman-Trucks
  18. Mr KS. This photo of the Howe Coleman conversion brings up the question. When did Mack discontinue making their own driven steering axle and go to the outside conversion equipment?? Thanks, Brocky
  19. Sorta made the R model roll back "squat" a little??? Good luck getting it all put together.. will look forward to some progress pictures.
  20. Me either!! Although they must service them.. I remember back about 1970 when Roadway still had open top trailers we picked up a bare block (V-12 or 16??) at ALCO in Auburn NY and it weighed 28,000 pounds!!!
  21. I am thinking Hemmings had an article on him in Classic Car magazine just recently..
  22. Here is another picture of a Mack Howe Coleman 6X6 from The Howe picture library courtesy of Craig Trout.. and his comments about the Mack / Coleman connection here. http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/22610/Coleman-Trucks?PageIndex=27 Brocky
  23. With a good picture Bub Warren (806-374-3056) in Amarillo TX can make you a new one.
  24. Looks great!! As already said more pictures,, action ones!!!
