  1. A Merry Christmas to all and have a safe one if you have to travel.
  2. Also another reason for different cabs outside the US was because of import tarriffs/taxes... By building the cab locally people were not importing a whole truck..
  3. Paul and upstaters In you second picture I see the brand name "Land O Lakes" on the side with a Geneva address on the door. Was Land originally an upstate NY company from the Finger Lakes area???
  4. Paul That General looks like an oilfield truck and most of their welders are artists when it comes to fabbing up something like that.
  5. It is not just cars and trucks.. The local Toro lawn mower dealer counter man wanted the VIN number to be able to find a set of BLADES after I had told him the model number and deck size?? My reply was "Computers and Dipsh#t parts men" and walked out!! Went to the Ace Hardware and he picked them right off the shelf.
  6. And the twice the pipes was prolly a 9-0-nuttin..
  7. Tom Great pictures!! Especially the ti..res on the Jeep.. Been on 501 lotsa times as we had a customer in Stinking Springs..
  8. Sounds Great Randy.. Rent the whole building then then sub rent storage space.. Yarnell you listening???
  9. I am another 700 miler, only north from South Carolina!!!
  10. I think everyone has rotation problems from phones?? Try emailing to you house computer and then rotate and post??
  11. Oldspwr (Tom Millard) has an extensive photo essay on the application of Dynamat into his fathers Brockway 361 on the Brockway trucks website. http://www.brockwaytrucks.org/messageboard/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1044
  12. Here in South Carolina with low taxes along the interstate fuel runs $2.05 to $2.10.. 2 weeks ago I fueled up for $1.95 at one place.
  13. Sooner would say it was liquid sugar or corn syrup.. In the 60's to 80's Pepsi owned a sugar beet plant, then converted it to corn syrup, in Montazuma NY at the north end of Seneca Lake.
  14. Time mag must be owned by a member of Obumma cabinet!!!
  15. 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.
  16. A B-53 at Lititiz in 2013
  17. 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..
  18. Glad to hear you are out and about.. Take care and recover fully, our prayers are with you. Brocky
  19. Vlad Did you get the message that pictures from the whole trip are here?? http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/84264/Down-Under-Trip Brocky
  20. Tom Thanks for the pictures. Those West By God hills are still on my bucket list of places to go.. Brocky
  21. 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!!
  22. 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

  23. Randy Congrats on the purchase of history.. Will you have it a Macungie?? Will be looking for it!!
  24. 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.
  25. 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?
