  1. All bevel-seat connections for everything. Is that a preference or an option?

    My guess would have been tri-clamp sanitary fittings.

    The reason I'm asking is because I work with process piping and I'm "old school"...... I find the bevel-seats connect much easier and afford more flexibilty.

  2. I came across a couple older pictures of some Roys Transfer trucks from Rochelle IL. I'll post the R for an example and there

    is a link below to the rest of the pictures. The B-model is just awesome. The link is to another forum where this guy said that

    these were his dads trucks when he drove for Roys. If you scroll a little ways down he explains where the trucks were at and

    what they were hauling. Love the B in the pictures.

    Thanks for the link. Nice shots of old working Macks.

    The weird thing is that at the bottom of the thread, that board has a "glenlunberg" too. Same mannerisms and hyperlink. Coincidence?

  3. Matt You sure about 250? I thought it was a rare 927.

    Hmmm maybe. I was told 250.

    927 CI = Super 250. Non-turbo factory rated at 270 hp.

    I remember watching some footage on the Manchester Autocars in one of the Lindsay Crawford videos a few years back.

  4. BY THE WAY CHUCK P, YOU'RE PRETTY WELL CLUED ON AUSSIE SUPERCARS! MIND IF I ASK HOW/WHY ? CHEERS MICK :rolleyes:

    I blame it on Mad Max!

    I grew up around Detroit muscle all my life and decided to branch out to see what was on the other side of the pond. I found Aussie muscle to be very similar to American cars in design and performance. Body shells and styling cues and most times good old V8 power. Some of the later Holdens even had polycast honeycomb rims.

    I'm amazed by the cars that were produced from 66-73.... Monaro and Torano, Ford Falcon GT, and Valiant Chargers with that wacky slant six.

    I don't get to see these cars in real life so the computer age brings them closer to me.
