It is the top middle video Kerry Packer interview, short video from early 1990's. Sums up exactly what has been happening in USA - the auditing and questioning is long overdue. The tax offices audit and question our affairs and the penalties are substantial, so there is zero justification for the bludgers to have their work questioned and audited and they should incur the same substantial penalties, that seems very fair and reasonable!!!!

" I have tried to live ... showing that love" - VERBAL DIARRHEA and oxygen thieves. We have far tooooo many here in Aussie land. One former premier around 2000, put on 25,000 new state bludgers in 6 months and the numbers have ballooned ever since. I was informed many years ago that it cost about $Aussie 200,000 to employ each of these bludgers - salary, on costs, office accommodation (only the best), cost of multiple supervising managers and senior managers, computers, training, stress and all other benefits etc. etc. etc... Our recent now departed premier had more than 200 bludgers in his premiers staff office, normally 10 is more than required. Most of these were on salaries of $100,000 +++. One of my daughters close friend was an advisor on staff govt payroll to a state govt member. 12 months ago she took a 1 year sabbatical, ON FULL PAY, because the job was demanding and she was lost ... She has no children and was living with her boyfriend at mum's house. I asked her what she was advising the govt minister about and what was her grounds for any such advise. She could not give me a sensible explanation. Her mother is a federal woke pollie (knows every trick to use and officially abuse the union funds and public purse). We cannot progress with this permanent raping of the genuine public - our money is their money to spend as they wish.

Maybe if sustainable - charge them with treason. What other legitimate legal reason have they and those who bring these legal proceedings to the courts to block what proper democratic societies should function. Judges are appointed to implement and uphold the law. The law is to protect the assets and money that belongs to the people, at local, state and federal government levels. How can those that create these legal proceedings be acting in the best moral and legal rights for the people of the USA? These people fail to recognise that the assets and monies AND THE MASSIVE DEBT ARE OWNED BY THE PEOPLE.

We have the same wrong but deliberate thinking and conduct by the public servants and elected members. I was told about 18 months ago that the new railway tunnel being built in Melbourne, substantially blown out costs, that the tunnels are narrow and the majority of the railway cars cannot not travel through the tunnels at the required speed otherwise the cars will scrap the walls. This became public around November 2024. About 6 trains will fit, so most of the trains cannot travel through these tunnels. And who is accountable. On top of this the current state govt has commended a ring railway that has no support by the transport specialists and it does not stack up financially. Who is responsible for these massive f... ups. We are copping huge taxes and new taxes are being invented non stop. All the public servants and elected govt people can do is create new taxes. Taxes always kill economic activity and growth. They never accept responsibility or take action for their massive waste and deception. We the common people would be bankrupted and even charged with deception for a minimum of what they have and continue to do against us.

My dad's 6 cyl diesel Fiat around 1952 Melbourne Australia. I think it was about 1950 model. The steel tanks sitting on the trailer were for carting bulk wine grapes to the winery. His Fiat was originally a rigid single drive, the frame was shortened and 30 foot McGrath trailer (hardwood floor) hooked up, the turn table was bolted to the trailer. Very few trailers were quick release in Australia. It had full air brakes, used little fuel, but was slow for a trailer tow. I have the undamaged Fiamm original twin air horns from this Fiat truck. I am thinking of fitting them on my Mack Valueliner, but under the hood whilst retaining the Mack air horns sitting on the cab roof. They sound amazing, a sharp tune, just like you may have heard in Italian movies. Giovanni Barbon next to Fiat truck.PDF

For Australia it was planned deliberately by certain left leaning union leaders and politicians back in the 1960's trained by certain players in the UK (which was going hard left fast since 1950's) to undermine many industries, steel etc and the good hard working people that worked in the various industries. Many were post WW2 European migrants like the family of my best friend, who worked in the furnaces at BHP in Woolongong. Australia manufactured some of the best steel in the world. These traitors played the hand of the new left govt in 1972, they conned and bluffed the working people by doubling the wages, inflation exploded and that was the start of the end of our steel mills, associated industries and many other industries. Real wages went backwards. Investment in new facilities could not be justified, naturally, and eventually the local operations closed. The traitor plans worked to a T, all the direct and indirect jobs disappeared overseas to the countries of their plans. We did get a little recovery via recycling of old steel, but it was little compensation for the loss of a magnificent local industry. The left elites, economists etc were so clever to justify the changes that caused the real workers to suffer - best use and allocation of labour and resources, in other words to cheap labour countries of their plans. All our established industry, technical schools, trade knowledge, skills etc evaporated in no time, gone forever. Once gone, then we are importing what is given to us. The quality is not the same. Recently imported steel used in a roof span in a new building collapsed because of poor steel. During the 1970's Italy trading with Russia, bought Russian steel for the Italian auto industry. The cars rotted within 12 months and less.

This picture may help you. Exhaust of an Aussie Valueliner, similar exhaust post to your Mack. This was the original exhaust from factory, no muffler. -

Superliner 2 cab and hood on CL700 frame
harrybarbon replied to 1951 Mack LJ's question in Mack Truck Q & A
Consider Moving backwards the radiator motor and gearbox to align with the RW713 hood guards centre with the CL 700 front axle and then the cabin, that would be the practical and should allow the steering to remain in place as is. You can modify the cab mounts to fit. You can fit shorter parabolic springs. -
How could anyone take these 2 seriously especially in the international arena apart from within the country.
-
Dave, please what engine and gearbox on no 35?

you cant be serious(the 2!) 😂

History is ignored to suit and justify people's fundamentally wrong and selfish choices for their sole enjoyment of homes in the hills. We will have to pay for the increased insurance premiums. The commentary is clear, the FD could not and would never overcome the Santa Ana and fire and again in 2025. The area should be returned to nature and new residential quarters built in appropriate zones, without the risks. And the same for the houses along the ocean front, erosion will take the sand and whatever is there, so why build houses. We have the same issues here in Australia. Buyers have paid up to $AUS 30M for beachfront properties in Byron Bay. Not even 20 years ago there was a road between the properties and the water edge. Now the road is long gone and the sea is eating towards the houses. Maybe time for a rethink!

Movie - TWINS! - Danny and Arnold. Scientists created Dolly the sheep and more afterwards. I would not be surprised that such human experiments could happen if not already in certain countries. We have no idea what is really happening in the clandestine labs around the world. For human reproduction, the fundamental basis of our human existence, it should remain with the natural female. The money should be spent on helping and improving that unique wonder of our being, that includes IVF done between a man and a real woman. 🙏🫰it does not happen and not exposed to our innocent children.

It's pulling a heavy load, they were built tough and still going. Perfect for the Aussie outback, fully air conditioned. But they were not successful in Australia.

My dad had Parkinson's, the slow version, he had it about 15 years. I spent a lot of time with him, going places, getting him to walk as best he could. All the video clips of Biden I have seen is very close to my dad's limited movements and confusion. Since my dad passed in 2001, there have been advancements in the Parkinson drugs, so Biden's medical team have been giving him the latest and best drugs available, so he has been juiced up well and truly for a while. I am surprised that they did not remove Biden from his post. Or Joe and Jill refused to concede. Jill's body language at Carter's funeral tells a story.

Joey, you are in a perfect position to make a worthwhile investment that will pay for itself in a short time. The new world technology is now available to buy. I think that within 3 months you should be able to buy the Strike Technology retro fit kit in USA. Sales have commenced by the Thailand licence holder, Plasmoid Power Ltd @ $US 647 plus delivery. PP is a subsidiary of a UK parent company that has the licences for Thailand, Malaysia and Nigeria and all the electric power plants (coal and gas) in India.. The technology runs on very little fuel, eliminates all pollutants and the exhaust outlet produces 99% oxygen at 19 degrees celcius and a clean engine because there is no carbon in the motor. Reduces engine service and extends oil life in the motor plus extra 70% engine power. You can run a pipe from the exhaust into your home and that will be your air con service, near pure at at 19 degrees. That is healthy air to breathe. So you can remove 1 a/c unit and all the issues with the a/c unit. You cannot adjust the oxygen temp, that is how it comes out. Maybe the inventor will come up with a way to convert the oxygen into a warmer temp in the future so it can heat in the winter months. For you, being a mechanic you should be able to retro fit the kit to your genset unit in 2-3 hours and then go. Anyone who has a decent working older reliable genset can become independent of the power grid and save big $'s. A guy in Nth Carolina has fitted the system onto his 6cyl 1956 Chevy and it works very well. There will be more world news about this new technology soon, watch this space.
