I was talking to the man who signed my bills where I unloaded crane mats Friday morning. He said he couldn't get anything done because of the EPA and rules and regulations. They were trying to clear a right of way, for a pipeline I guess, and he said they had to get a permit to cut any tree over 5'' in diameter-or it might have been 3''. All they could do is clear the brush, then they have to go back and cut the trees whenever they get the permit. Twice the work,twice the time,and twice the expense. He said he'd been waiting for 3 months.

With special added bonus pictures-poorly photochopped hitchhikers for Farmer52! Superliner in Lynchburg Stopped and checked out the wrecker in New Castle,Pa. looks like it will hold enough fuel to drive to Australia and back. This Transtar II was on the other side of the building. This girl wanted to know if I could help her get the spare tire out of her trunk. Said she'd make it worth my while, but I told her I didn't have time, had a load to pick up. Saw a Ford too. and some big logs-thse are giant redoakwood these look like popular logs A big bulldozer machine A curve in the road A straight road Saw this girl hitchhiking up the straight road, but I didn't bother to stop. After I unloaded some crane mats I had to go over the hill and about a half mile further and back into another dirt road to turn around. This is coming back after I got turned around, I had unloaded way up there by that yellow machine that looks like a little dot in the picture. Saw this girl who appeared to be broke down, but I didn't stop when she tried to flag me down-might've been a trick. This sign was on the wall at Lane Steel in Mckees Rocks, where I loaded Wednesday. Nice to see something like that, instead of getting the usual "you're an asshole because you drive a truck" treatment.

I saw a Brockway tractor once. and I saw a Massey Ferguson one time and one time I even saw an Oliver.

" Many great people here and a few whack jobs."see, there's one already.

OK, i'm the aardvark. I like H models. I like F models. I like the MH's. But the Cruiseliners...I just never cared much for their looks. Very nice pictures though, your "kodiakatronomy of the week" award will be in the mail.

That is indeed a tough engine. I had one in a '68 Camaro when I was 19 or 20 years old. The rear main bearing seal leaked really bad, but I never fixed it because I was intending on putting the 350 out of my Nova in it. I lived in Cumberland,Va. at the time and I would fill it up with oil- cheap oil too,reprocessed or whatever- then overfill it a quart, drive it to Richmond on Friday nights, and by the time I got back to Powhatan on the way home the oil light would be on and it would knock like hell the rest of the way home. Then i'd fill it back up with oil the next day and it would quit knocking and be good as new. Did that many times with that old car.

I saw a mini cooper once, at a truck show.

Happy birthday!

I do have one older picture of when she rode down the track with Larry for the first time.

that's a little nicer than the last one-How about if you got your girlfriend, or someone else's computer to try to set you up, then you could change your password later.

they've got lots of stuff there all right. I went off-roading, out of route, through the briars, through the brambles, and had to turn around in a field to get a picture of that IH Paystar in W.V. that I thought was so rare that time, then I passed by Adelman's one day and they had a small fleet of Paystars lined up in there.

oh...well, that might be his girl friend's car or something. or it could be his pimpmobile, only driven when he doesn't want to attract attention to himself.

hmmmm....somebody on here was just looking for a B model dump truck...

you're exactly right, looks like the 5th. wheel is as far back as it'll go, they have no weight on the steers.

you can start by posting poorly photochopped pictures, that'll put you well on your way....and congratulations!

looks like it

Hey, thanks Mike!

We had a cold snap and some snow flurries here this morning. It was 8 below zero. I went to Rustburg and saw this girl in Winfall. Didn't have time to stop.

An old Frederickson White that used to sit on rt.86 between Danville and Yanceyville. I called the number that was on a sign out front several times to see about buying this truck, but never got an answer. This was before I got the mixer, and I probably would have bought it. By the way, I have a good carp recipe. It's handed down from my late uncle ''Buck". 1. clean and scale carp, but leave the fish whole. 2. stuff fish with fresh green horse manure 3. bake in oven at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes 4. throw fish away and eat horse manure

I would think you could get 6-71's in them in the early days, but I do not know for sure.

Yeah, I see these all the time. Took a picture of one last week, but it was rainy and foggy and the picture was blurry so I deleted it.

not that I know of,they still run that truck pretty regularly around here. I'll let you know if I ever hear that it is.

the green and white one has a 400 Cummins in it, I don't know about the orange and black one,I saw it at a truckstop in W.V.

this is a 6-71 in a Euclid.
