  1. Some peoples just like apes in their logo too.
  2. No Mike, he didn't say. I was gonna ask him if it had a 292 but I got distracted.
  3. Yeah, most do when they're that old, but the man said it was parked inside at the firehouse the whole time it was a firetruck.

  5. I saw this nice looking Chevrolet dump truck in Elyria this morning. The construction co. where I unloaded the pipes owned it. The owner said he used to have a green 761 Brockway too that he sold, but he said he wished he still had it. This was a former fire department truck, only 29,000 actual miles. He said they removed the tank it used to carry, shortened it and put the dump body on it and painted it, but they did no bodywork at all on it.
  6. That's OK, I ain't much of a truck driver!
  7. The Pete I drive used to have nice looking stainless steel half fenders on it until I picked up a load of lumber at a sawmill in Ga. one time. Put the front strap just a tad too far forward and when I pulled out into the highway it caught the fender on the left side and crinkled it up. Had to pull into a store parking lot and take it off because it was rubbing the tires. They put a set of cheap quarter fenders on it when I got in, and Jeff said he was surprised the half fenders lasted as long as they did.
  8. leaving early today for Elyria, Oh. with a load of pipes.

  9. I feel sure these people could build whatever you want- they do pretty much everything, or they used to anyway. They make TBC truck bodies there, or used to. They even made van trailers, H.H. Moore had a couple of TBC chip trailers. It used to be called Truck Body Corporation but I see the name is different now so they might be just parts installers now too. http://www.truckbodyco.com/default.htm
  10. Hey there randyp!.. ain't been on here much lately-you're not shunning us,like Paul Van Scott are you? As for the truck, I don't see where it looks so bad- whoa,wtf?!! Pictures 7,8,9, and 10-where'd this come from,the bottom of the ocean?
  11. my thoughts exactly!..I didn't reply, but what a wife!
  12. I don't know where they come from but Boyle Trucking still uses them a lot and i've seen a Norfolk Southern railroad truck,cabover Freightliner pulling a fuel tanker,around this area that has one. Don't know where Boyle's out of but I think they haul a lot of explosives.
  13. It is! By the way, think i'm moving to Italy.
  14. I have a corner. My stuff is increasing too. That's "nocluejoe" in the second picture looking at the high binder.
  15. This is true. I can putter around from the grill to the garden to the cooler sitting on the picnic table to the grill to the cooler and be quite happy.
  16. I know exactly what you mean. I jumped down off the trailer when I was untarping a load of steel in Marshall last week and the guy standing there said "you're a little old for that aren't you?" Thought I must look pretty bad, and I was soaked with sweat. I just said "yeah, I am" Jo said last week "why don't we go somewhere when you take your vacation this year, maybe Cape Hatteras and you can fish or something" I said "rooms in Cape Hatteras are prolly $10,000 a night this time of year,so we could only stay about 5 minutes-besides, I go somewhere all the time so when i'm off I ain't going nowhere!" ('cept maybe to Lincolnton,N.C. to the ATHS show)
  17. I liked "The Rifleman" when I was a kid and still watch it on weekends. Another TV show I liked was "Combat" but i've never seen it on reruns.
  18. beautiful paint job on that impostor Killer B! Yeah, she's pretty beatuful herself. What a smile in that last picture! There can only be one real Killer B,and that's Randyp's!
  19. baaaaaa...
  20. actually, I didn't post a link. Try this one- http://kickfiends.blogspot.com/2011/05/more-pictures-of-hot-girls-in-jordans.html
  21. .
  22. Once again, excellent story and pictures by John MacFarlane in the latest issue of "Old Time Trucks".
  23. ha-ha, yeah she's pretty hot-love those old style tennis shoes! But, seriously, it's great to see any kind of news coverage for a truck show. It's a first for me...love those shoes...dammit- think i'll go inflate my sheep now. I must be off. Man, I could really have at it with captions on those pictures- got one in the chamber, ready to go. But since Doug has rock-star status, i'd better restrain myself. I must be off.
  24. I have built up s-cams before by welding a row of beads across them and then grinding them smooth.I don't know if there are any regulations against doing that, but it worked fine. Just a thought...(Paul Van Scott)
