    Looks like some of his "yes men" are on their way out. TRUCK SPOTTED LEAVING D.C......
  2. Sad story about Howard. I'm sure it was a final comfort to him knowing he had you as a friend.
  3. Welcome and here's hoping you find it. Maybe your motor vehicle division has old records, most of the more populated areas don't, but just a shot.
  4. This neat item is listed in the up coming Leake Dallas sale Nov 21,22,&23. No connection, just passing it on. There are 17 photos on the webiste, not sure if I can post it as an album to show them all. https://leakecar.com/consignments/51/current-consignments/?action=itemlist&auctionid=90&year=&model=&color=&make=&keyword=&lotNumber=2512 Couldn't get the picture on the posting, sorry.
  5. Very nice. That is a perfect trailer for the B.
  6. Great addition to the museum. I'm sure you will get some "eye balls" on the way back.
  7. Looks like a great show. Very nice H rollback.
  8. Beautiful trucks. Glad the Packard went quick. I could have gotten excited about it.
  9. Welcome. Let us know what you find.
  10. What a find. Can't beat the internet.
  11. Cool truck I hope you can get everything swaped over to make a good one.

    I remember the mud too. They had the Red & Blue fields with the airstrip across the highway that later became the White Field. It did seem to rain every year for the show.
  13. Maybe the museum has them. I went to pick up a servce manual for B Models last year and we went into a room with shelves full of different manuals.

    I hear you on the "non vehicle" stuff. If they would seperate it the trip would be a lot less physical. About a quarter of the vendors were packing up early on Friday due to the weather forecast. As it turned out the rain didn't come until late that evening and was cleared by morning.

    Anybody see anything exciting at Hershey? I covered about 3/4ths of the flea market and saw a few Bull Dog hood ornaments along with a pair of B-61 side pieces in decent shape priced at $150. There was a R 600 dump for sale, no price or owner nearby. There was a fully restored Mack Jr in front of the Giant Center and of course the beautifully done B-67 at the show on Sat by Matt Pfahl.
  16. N51F, I have the same vibration you describe in OD only (TRD 720). There is also a high pitched noise in that gear that is not present in any of the others. I have drained the trans and changed fluid. There were no filings or debris that came out, also nothing on the magnet. I pulled the PTO covers and nothing unusal. The U joints were replaced along with the slip joint and rear output shaft bearing. The shaft was also balanced. I've had it on jack stands running in gear but can't hear or feel anything. I can't think of anything else to check without pulling the trans.
  17. My '60 B 61 has a TRD 720 with the fifth gear turned around but the hi range is to the seat. Here is a paragraph from the shop manual: "In overgeared-type transmissions, an aditional rocker and pivot pin, to operate fourth and fifth-speed sliding clutch converts the shift pattern of these transmissions to that of the direct-drive boxes. Thus, either type of transmission has the same standard shift." I was talking to Matt Phafl last year about this and he said in some cases the direct shift tower/cover had been used on the over-gear transmissions and you wind up with the 4th/5th flip.
  18. Looks like the ad is still running. Here is a link to that ad and you should be able to email the seller. https://glensfalls.craigslist.org/cto/4660112832.html Good Luck, Harry
  19. I like it too. I'll have to make one of their shows, hopefully soon. The shows always seem to conflict with something else.
  20. Great pixs, thanks. Don't you hate when they do dust control right after a nice cleaup. Our local landfill does that daily. They have a truck wash but it is recycled water and the concrete like dust is mixed in and hardens on the undercarriage making it a real chore to get off.
  21. What a shame. I hope who ever owns it realizes the loss in value.
