I like this one- I asked my wife, "Where do you want to go for our anniversary?" It warmed my heart to see her face melt in sweet appreciation. "Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!" she said. So I suggested, "How about the kitchen?" And that's when the fight started.... Here's some bikes I used to have- the red one is a 750 Kawasaki, about '78 I think. Black one is an '80 or '81 1000 Kawasaki. I had a couple of Hondas before these, a 360 and a 500, but I have no pictures of either. And of course the bottom one is the one I have now.

There used to be an R-400 parked behind the feed store in Dillwyn,Va. Straight truck, van body. Don't know if it's still there or not, I walked around and looked at it several years ago. Didn't have a camera with me at the time. I remember when the truck was running, it ran to Richmond and back to Seay Milling in Dillwyn. It was a diesel with a quadruplex, I do remember that. -
Don't forget your coat today Ed- you're gonna need it tomorrow too.
-
Is that heavy duty wreynolds wrap, or will just any old foil work? send me the blueprints so I can make one- ya cain't be too careful these days.
-
anyhow... this is the video with the red B-model with the white stripe in the picture. All these videos are pretty good.
-
how 'bout a hurricane shovel?..might need one of them too.
-
Wow, thank you, that's quite an honor. I'll be waiting and watching the mailbox for my badge and gun to arrive. And one of them double bill hats...magnifying glass...a curved pipe. They're a must have for a detective. Along with a pay raise.

Yep, I carry most all of what Mackdaddy said, i've put a fan belt on on the side of the road a couple of times. Not hard to do, but paying for a service truck to come out and do it is. At the first hint the alternator might be going bad Jimmy would give me an alternator to carry along too. I tried to put one on at Newcomerstown truckstop a few years ago but I couldn't get the bolts out so I had to put it in the shop, but at least I didn't have to buy an alternator on the road.

I bought a snow shovel once, and it didn't snow for 3 years. First time I used it the handle broke. Maybe I should buy another one.
-
I've been doing fine, was running like a scalded dog most of the year, but haven't been anywhere since before Christmas. Still talk to Joe periodically, he's already wanting to hit the road again.
-
Hell yeah, all that and b.s. is about all I sling!
-
More pictures of the B-model from Hank's Truck Pictures- check out that interior! Before it's present restoration- And after
-
That's the same strategy that Watkins Abbott used in Appomattox, except he collected tractors. When his wife noticed one she hadn't seen he'd say "oh, i've had that one for a long time". Must work.

I worked out a trade for the mixer. Leversole is going to start driving south and i'm heading north in the mixer. We're gonna leave at the same time and when we meet, probably somewhere around Culpeper, Va. we're just gonna swap vehicles.
-
No, not off on a mission. I just called headquarters to see where I was going...no answer. Must be taking a holiday.
-
The other ones were back farther east, towards Gettysburg. They were also right by the highway, in a big lot with lots of construction equipment , earthmovers, dump trucks,etc.
-
Not that I could see on google earth street view.
-
5630 Chambersburg rd.- that's U.S. 30. Probably Cashtown, Pa. but i'm not sure, it's not really in town. They're west of Cashtown, east of rt. 233.
-
Me neither. If I had to chain up i'd have to call Mark or Bob and I don't have their number, so i'd be s.o.l. Rowdy ain't gonna buy no brass wing nuts- the thing to do is weld some tabs on the u-bolt nuts and put a good coating of never seize on the threads so you can get them off easily without using a wrench.
-
They're not that far from the red b-model. only this much on the map-
-
OK, I'll look now.
-
Well, imagine that! I did not find these trucks anywhere between Gettysburg and I-81, but I did find that B-model I saw before. Actually it's red with a white stripe. These 2 are both at the same location. I'll look north of 81 later.
-
Can't believe I didn't pin the location on that truck I saw on google earth. Did see an old Autocar on rt. 16 in Pa. that I pinned. The b-model I saw was white with a red stripe around it. I also saw the same truck on a youtube video about old trucks. I'm going to google 5630 Lincoln Highway now- the no. on the building in the picture is 5630, and if you were coming from Gettysburg you were probably on 30, eh?

Use your grill then. I actually cooked a delicious pot roast entirely on the grill yesterday.I threw the roast on the grill and browned it good on both sides, then I transfered it into an aluminum foil lined aluminum roasting pan, added potatoes, onions, a can of carrots, and a can of beast broth. Covered the pan with more foil, couple hours later it was done. And good too!
