  1. I got one on the left. Pretty handy reading.
  2. I'm thinking she just mighta had a "tight" throat and wasn't able to get it all down in one shot??? Just think'n out loud.............
  3. The truck was junk. The dash was hanging loose it was hit that hard. Only thing not hurt was tailgate.
  4. Bill, use Photobucket to post pictures. Just copy/paste the "img" link that PB gives each picture. Like this.... My '95 after I got clobbered by a minivan going 45 mph. I "almost" made it across the intersection when she got me. She never saw HER red light and never hit the brakes. I never saw her coming as there was traffic sitting at the light(like they were suppose to). Dam, I miss that truck. It was shiny like a new penny.
  5. LOL!! I Love it. Toby does come up with some cute stuff. Throw in all the "famous" people and it's a good video.
  6. Welcome aboard!
  7. Just like those oil field truck pictures you see!!! Yee Haw!!!!!
  8. I've got the original tank mount parts(like ajt posted) from the rear of my B(don't need them). Or are you looking to hang them off the side of the frame?
  9. Shortening it would be easier just sliding tandems forward and cutting off extra. I would not like a dumptruck that has been cut in the middle. Too much flexing in that application and I can see cracks in the near future. Drilling a few dozen holes isn't that big of deal.
  10. Any local truck stealership will have DOT hose and fittings. I just bought some 1/2" and fittings at my local truck equipment supplier last week. Don't recall pricing as I bought a bunch of stuff. Most fittings are a few bucks each and hose is likely at least $1/ft.
  11. I got home just in time to leave for dinner party at Hog Heaven(local Ford club meets for dinner about once a month). Well, can't say I wanted much to eat after the outstanding buffet we munched on all day!!!! That peanut butter fudge was........................AWESOME!!! A spring show sound good! At least this winter I'm not cutting the truck up into multiple pieces!
  12. Ok, here is some teaser shots of the crowd at Dennys place. In rain before lunch....... Then afternoon when the sun broke out... I'm sure Ken has alot better selection, I just snapped a few off quickly.
  13. Had a great time. Thanks to Denny and his wife for the warm hospitality. Cant wait for next year! Imagine the horror as all those trucks turned down a road with a sign stating "No Trucks Allowed"?
  14. Those couple trucks are Jerry Howard of southern Ohio. He's got a boat load of trucks, including that 350" wheelbase black Autocar that I'm sure you've seen in the Showtime. He also owns El Turbo.
  15. I got it marked down for next week. B model or not, I got plans to be there.
  16. Its just like the early anteaters...........buttugly. Whole hood or no hood.......but 1/2 hoods just dont do it for me.
  17. That just aint right.
  18. Very sorry to hear. My condolences to you and your family.
  19. I can still hear Mr. Whipple................"Please don't squeeze the Charmin"......................LMAO!!!
  20. LOL!!!!!!!! I was waiting for that part of the story. How Rob had to walk a mile to get help!
  21. Nice looking motor. Wish mine didn't have the color "grudge" all over it LOL! Get in contact with Phil and have him try to find another set up like I got. Mine didn't have the oil cooler either, as that makes a difference also. He found mine on an old R model with a 711 in it. If you do it, get the road draft tube that goes with that filter set up. I had to refab the mount on mine(down on the oil pan) to get it out of the way of the filters. No biggie, but I should have gotten the tube off the 711 and it likely would have made it fit correctly. My local place(Adelmans truck parts) couldn't help me as they didn't have any motors that they wanted to sell pieces from.
  22. Nice hangers..................ummmmm..............ah.....................well, ya that's what they are, right?
