  1. Hi JOCKO, Did you buy an A/C Yet, I have a lead where there are 5 for sale from one outfit in NY, Paul
  2. Hi Jocko, What a shame, I just saw this today for some reason, had to read further before I discovered it was sold, well another one i missed out on, 6 to 7 grand was a good price I think.
  3. Hi FWD, WOW, Quite a history you have with it. I am partial to them to as I remember the Boston Fire Dept. had a number of them in the inner city when I was going to college up there back in 1961. They also had mainly Seagrave Ladder trucks, but I do remember seeing a ladder truck with the tractor being a FWD. Paul
  4. Hi F.W.D. No, was unaware of it as I am mainly into Mack dumps and tractors, but do love these old Ahrens. Two town here on the Cape still have one each and use then in parades, etc. Hyannis lost all theirs in trades but tracked one down and rebought it and brought it back to life. My town never let the last one go, thank god, as they did the first two. I love to hear the power those engines have. Are you familiar with Maxims that were built in Middleboro, MA? Paul
  5. Not sure if this is the Falmouth Engine 1, but is the same
  6. Hi Loadstar, Was wondering if you had interest in Maxims, being so close to Middleboro? Myself, I always loved the 1927 Ahrens Fox, Falmouth had 3, still has one, other two were traded cheap, years ago, maybe $1.00. Paul
  7. Hi Joe, I've had many younger guys over the years who work for me, go through the same bullshit, not enough time to explain the horror stories here, but feel bad the kids have to go through things like this. I own a tool & die business, almost 70, and the business part of everything has been the easy part. It seems like im a father to all these guys, and having never been married, so their problems become mine too. But its a tough situation, all you can do is get up, dust yourself off and keep on going, you're boys will be you're reward down the road. Best Regards, Paul
  8. Hi Ben, I think the warning points really add up if you dont have a Mack with a Thermodyne engine in it, Paul
  9. LOL being in business since 1958, you learn that sometimes you have to use the criminal mind dept in you're brain, LOL
  10. I sort of expected an answer like that randyp, LOL
  11. Hi Steeldashes, I bought my B81 indirectly from same seller in July and very happy with it. I think you got a very good deal and good luck, Paul
  12. Hi other dog, yes, now that thje conversation is more serious
  13. Hi Ben, I will have to remember that, I am new here and learning, LOL Paul
  14. LOL, say no more randyp, I see where this is going, of course I started it by making a foolish statement, LOL (I can imagine where it would have gone if I had posted one of my 6 spindle gang drills like I had started to do)
  15. Didn't know they actually drilled the holes other dog. No woinder cheese is so expensive today!!!!!
