    My old pick up was a F 350 with a 460 gas burner and had about 180K. It was tired and no matter what you did to improve performance made no difference. I was on my way to Des Moines and made the first gas refill in Ohio. About 50 miles after that the truck was like it had just had a rebuild, ran great until I got back home and back to the ethanol, then the performance dropped off. This was about 7 or 8 years ago.

    Great story and good example of a Mack rescue.

    That looks like quite a show. Thanks for sharing.

    Making room

    Those era Chevys and GMCs, especially the 5 windows have always and still are hot items. especially when they are "farm fresh".

    Very nice, turnkey opportunity for some one.

    Great pictures, thanks for sharing. Sure wish I could have been there.

    I think Classic Automotive has a Superliner wrecker also with the same paint scheme.

    That'a a f***ing horse.

    Welcome. I see you at the Rockville show every year. I think I am parked to the left of you in the photo.

    Very nice. That rear change will make a big difference.

    Looks like a nice solid truck. Enjoy!

    Welcome. Nice trucks, like the color combo on the B.

    I haven't had a problem with the non ethanol gas going bad. I think the longest I've let it sit is about 6 months. I don't do that on purpose but time has a way of going faster than my good intentions.

    I have had the same problem with Echo. the only good part of that is I was able to get the replacement line, but still a PITA. I swore of the the stuff and now drive about 30 miles one way with gas cans and then add a little Marvel Mystery Oil. I feel the same as you about the expletives that are responsible for this stupidity. They need to feed people with that corn.

    Welcome and happy hunting.

    That's it, thanks. I'll take $60 and mail it anywhere in US.

    I was too busy admiring the engine and missed the "Henry". Nice on both counts.

    I have a Mack thermostat part #215 SB 164 AP3 in the box. It looks like the NAPA one pictured. I got it from Watt's for a 673 B Model and then found out my truck doesn't have a thermostat, just shutters. I can't find the invoice but will sell it cheap.

    That is going to make a really nice rollback.

    Paul, I can't tell the year of the El Dorado in the picture, but there is a '78 owned by Capitol Cadillac in Greenbelt that has power T tops.

    Could be the venting of the new tank/cap.

    Fun video. Jay knows how to have fun.

    Thanks for the pix.
  24. HarryS
    Definitely a nice one.

    The ethanol is definitely a problem with the old gas engines. In addition to what J Hancock mentioned it will free up debris in the tank and also cleanses the valve train causing valves to stick. I have found the non ethanol gas with some Marvel Mystery Oil works wonders. Nice looking over the hood shot.
