  1. actually, I have no idea what klyston or cling ons are, but I do have a shoe box with old baseball cards from the '60's.
  2. Amen brother. (Bulldogman)
  3. klystron? I got a shoe box full off that, can't give it away.
  4. hmmmm...tough choice...I like the stainless version, but i'm staying with blue!
  5. Great Barry, i'll check out this new stainless ,but I liked the old blue.
  6. Yep, this 1800 Loadstar cab looks identical, front end's different. You're right, this 2000D is it I believe. The Fleetstar picture at the top is a newer model I think.
  7. Hmmmm....must be the new! I tried posting the picture myself and when I did all of Rowdy's original pictures came in- before it was just a blank box with a red X in it.
  8. Wow, glad you weren't hurt any worse, but that was bad enough! Probably the worst place to be, just getting up. I can't- or won't, I should say- run double either. Otis and myself ran double to Homestead, Fl. a few years ago and I probably slept a couple hours during the whole trip. If I ever did doze off, the first time we hit a bump i'd be wide awake.
  9. I'm gonna turn this picture over.
  10. OK, thanks Rowdy- still couldn't see the picture but the link worked fine. That's strange- when I reply, I see the picture, but can't see it in the original post.
  11. Rob's been out standing in the radar field for years.
  12. Yeah, i'm off this week, back at it Monday. I was ready to go back to work after a day, now the week's flying by! Interior looks like this, got Mack floor mats with bulldogs on them.
  13. Not a bad idea- who knows when you won't be able to get it anymore.
  14. I can't see the first picture. You're not expecting trouble are you? If you are i'll bring my 30-06, my 12 gauge, and my snubnose .38. I'll just leave the .22 rifle here. All the shells I buy for the 12 gauge is no. 4 buckshot, 3" magnums- it's a 36 in. barrell with full choke.
  15. I don't, it's licensed and insured as an antique vehicle and can't be used as a working truck. When I bought it had been gone through and refurbished and was ready to be put back in service hauling concrete. Then the ready mix company was sold, and the new owners didn't want to run equipment that old so they sold all the B-models. I bought it from one of the former owners who had retired and kept this truck for himself.
  16. it is, but don't tell anyone- it's disguised as a grill.
  17. hey James, you're blurry too, get a cup of coffee.
  18. I ordered 5 new cab lights from Watt's Mack last week. They came in a few days and I put them on yesterday. Good looking lights! I took the old rusty ones off and put one of the new ones on and thought they were the wrong lights at first because the bulb was towards the rear and the chrome part faced front. So I put them back in the box to send them back, then I gave Barry a call and told him I needed the ones with the bulb on the other end of the light. He said to just turn them around and the bulb would be in the front, so I did and they worked fine. They fit perfectly and covered where the old lights were exactly, just had to drill new holes, but that's good, you don't want to be using old holes anyway. Crappy old lights- shiny new lights- Then I came home and started slapping up a crude roof over the grill...yes, I know it's not up to code. I didn't buy any of it, it's made of posts and lumber I "accumulated" and had laying around. Got an old plastic tarp on it now, all I need is a couple of roof panels and i'm good.
  19. I'm guessing Loadstar 1800.
  20. Yeah, I have to agree, I lost interest in Trick my Truck when they started doing ice cream trucks, service trucks,etc. Haven't seen it lately. Haven't seen but a few American Trucker shows. Most are b.s. but I did like the one...can't remember what it was, but I liked it. That Evel Knievil truck needs...a cab it looked like. They could hire our most famous member, the one and only...... "Rob"!- and pay him millions to fix it, but it was a real rust bucket. Looked like they dug it up off the bottom of the ocean.
  21. I saw the American Trucker guy, he came in in the wrecker towing the Evel Knievel truck. Then he was up on the hill at the wrecker demonstration, where the tipped over container was. I never saw him after, or met him, there was always a huge crowd where ever he was. I didn't know anybody from Trick My Truck was even there, would've liked to meet them too.
  22. Indeed, nuthin' like a smokin' hot redhead! I tried to get her in as many pictures as possible...not that I was stalking her or anything.
  23. Thanks Jay, great pictures! You can tell you were there early, by the time I got there it was hard to take a picture without a bunch of people in the way, but that's a good thing.
  24. Amen brother! (Bulldogman) You hit the nail on the head there! I wish I had a spotted owl though, i'd marinate it in some teryaki sauce and throw it on the grill.
  25. Yes, I always have my agent (Rob) ax the tough questions.
