Jojo, please stay safe.. We have been out of power since 6:45 Friday morning.. And by the looks of things it will probably be another week??? They finally got power back 25 miles north of us in Simpsonville, so that I could get some gas for little generator.. 

Hi Brocky

I have been watching the news, hopefully you are all safe, sad for all the people suffering. Take care and all the best to all the people.

a 4.56 gear truck will do 80 with no problem, but you will be up around 2100-2200 RPM with 12/24.5 tires. 

My B model has the E6 - 350 with the 2070 OD box, tyres are 11 22.5 and diffs are 4.17, it maxs out at 120 kph/75 mph.

Typical dirt truck they’re all passing everybody. I got them gone by me all day long at 80 miles an hour but yes, it looks real good.

At 80 mph, what diff ratio would they be?

I have been looking to find a bit more information about the actual build/specifications difference between the Maxidyne and Econodyne motors. There is various information about the 2 engine performances, such as the powerbands for torque, Maxidyne is more suited to say construction type applications versus the Econodyne being more suited for hiway application. The motors were painted different colours. Externally both motors appear alike, both the Maxidyne and Econodynes had the intercooler over the motor, etc. I understand that the Econodyne E6 - 4 valve motor cannot have the intercooler over the motor, but the E6 2 valve can have the intercooler over the motor. I would appreciate any info - thanks.

Your Toyota is excellent. Please what motor is in it, 4 0r 6 cyl petrol or diesel?

Both were born in 79. 

Your Toyota is now worth big $'s and seems to be in very good condition, congratulations for both units. 👌

Wow, I haven't done "Pictures of the Week" for almost 2 munts. We went to a little small car show, or cruise-in, or something, in the big green International that doesn't run Sunday afternoon. I was actually surprised at how many people looked at it and commented about how good it looked. Not one person said it was an ugly looking piece of crap. Not that I heard anyway, and most were impressed when I told them the paint was "Rust-oleum spray paint from the Walmart store".

They didn't have a lot of vehicles there, but the ones that were there were very nice. 

This is Roger and Judy Morris' Camaro. He used that car strictly for drag racing for a long time, trailering it to the track. He's got a little age on him now, and most of the local drag strips have closed anyway, so they put a "street" engine in the car, or "streetabilized" the race engine, I don't know. I'm sure it still has more than enough "get up and go" though. Anyway they made it more drivable and completely street legal again.

A '68 or '69 Chevelle- I never could tell the difference, I think it's something about the marker lights.

A big green International truck-

A couple more trucks-

...and a car.

And here's a girl in a boat.

Great, the Zinahorn came yesterday- i'm gonna go put it on now.

You have a horn!!!! After being out on the water 🤩

This is an early photo of the first Aussie V8 Valueliner built, around 1987, motor - 440hp Mack with 12 spd box, when it was testing hauling the B double fuel tankers. The first driver, a Mr Allen, drove it 1.7 million kilometers before the heads came off. Years later the frame was stretched to allow fitting a 36 inch sleeper cab. It is now part of a collection here in Australia, the sleeper was removed some years ago. It has the same original colour, I think it been resprayed. The hood appears longer than it actually is, just the angle of the photo taken. Dan Thomas has an Aussie V8 Valueliner.

Captain replies - We know nothing about everything.

Schultz replies - I don't believe you. 🤣

Apology, I tried to copy and paste part of the show, where Hogans heroes are planning an escape, they role down the drawing of a woman and that's when Schultz enters their cabin. 🤔

Years ago, while I was working as a FF/EMT, there was a street in the city that had 4 apartment complexes, two on each side of the street, that housed hundreds of folks from a specific Southeast Asian country.  Just past them, just before the dead end of the street, was one house that had been turned into a kennel.  We called it "The Puppy Farm".  In addition, the city's animal control officer never had any strays to pick up.  I have no doubt that there is truth in Trump's story!

Interesting, media will not publish the real information. Dr Sebastian Gorka an advisor to Trump was interviewed by our local morning show today. He said he interviewed an informed person on his podcast. This person said/quoted there is a recent official police report in Minnesota, quote - there were 8 children killed after a botched abortion. If true, I doubt the main stream media would publish this real information. The sad reality is that life is damn difficult for a big part of the population, for whatever reason, it always has been so, the WOKES/LALA's choose to ignore it, they won't do anything for these sufferers, never. 

Gorka quoted Clinton, "it is the economy stupid", he quoted that under Biden/Harris food cost has risen an average of 40% and average mortgage payments have risen from $800 to $1,700 per month, he said the pendulum was unlikely to swing after the debate and it was the middle group that will decide the result. Fuel costs are up I hear from US citizens, one Afro-American lady from Alabama said her monthly gas payments are double under Biden/Harris and she will vote Trump when she was better off.    

We have similar economic pain here. My insurance broker gave me figures this week to review our insurance cover values, the costs of various building materials. Since 2021 costs have increased the fastest since 1981. Last year the average cost rise was 16%, (after big rises since 2021), but within that rise steel, timber, copper, cables etc were up between 26% to 44%. Wages have not risen anywhere near this increase.

I just watched CBS news, and the last story was a heart string story about Hatians in Springfield Ohio..  and of course quoted Mr. Trump, about eating dog's..  I work with a guy who has an uncle that does mission work in Haiti..  He said that in the street markets, Dog's are being cooked on 'spits'.

      Its amazing how fast the Lib news can move on creating a story, less than a day later, to try to show Mr. Trump as a crazy person..  anyway...  I aint gonna lie,,,  I am trully nervous about Nov. 5th...  I dont trust the Lib's ...  they are crazy and they cheat !!

Whatever the number of illegal immigrants, 10-20 million. I am wondering, where do they get their food and how do they get their food. What about housing, where are they living? Surely, when they arrive and where ever they go, they cant just magically get a job, money and food, so how do they feed themselves? Even 10 million, that is like 40% of the Australian population, that's a lot of mouths to feed daily.

James Bond technology is no fantasy. This week a scandal has been exposed in the Italian govt. The culture minister's lover (she has 2 economic degrees - a smart cunning lady) has released many videos and voice recordings all taken by her RayBan glasses, that had mini microphone and camera. The minister has conceded it is true.

Rule nothing out.

Dr.Jill had to help Dirty Harry on and off the stage..   how sweet...  B.S! she is trying to kill him legaly by making him work to death.. I bet she has a secret life..  I wonder how much younger he is? 

Joey, please sir 🤔 you keep referring to sleepy joe as Dirty Harry, I am confused because "the Dirty Harry" is a cult hero, what am I missing? Some of his (DH) movie comments back then have come to fruition, especially law and order. And Dirty Harry/Clint Eastwood is a die hard Republican. 

PS- I am a big fan of DH movies and CE 😀

Down here in Melbourne Australia late last year the bureau forecast the El Ninio and we would have a long dry and hot summer. That forecast did not eventuate. We have not had a day over 40 celsius for 5 years and I cannot remember a humid day or night for maybe 8 plus years. Prior to 5 years we did have 3-4 days of 40 and high humidity. I have not turned on my house air con in the last 5 years, just a fan and very comfortable. And along the coast at my son's home, we had 1 day around 35 for about 4 hours, otherwise a very mild summer and cool nights, all summer the temp was below 30, mostly 25-27. I have not noticed the sea temp rising, it was fresh all summer and cooled down fairly quickly at end of summer compared to years before.

What are the comments about the debate from lets say, the "objective" commentators in your country? We have a biased media here, except for Sky News, so we do not have an objective review presented to us.

What this is is a COVID test. And it's showing a positive reading too. As I might have mentioned Zina and me have both felt like crap since we got back from Macungie.

We have it over here in Aussie land, lots of people sick, it is a flu, I got it 10 days ago, took the world number 1 flu anti-viral drug called Relenza, I have not stopped working and knocked it over quickly, no temp, no bad coughing and no fever because it works so well. Doctors here keep it a secret, pricks wont prescribe it. In Aus it has to be prescribed just to give them pricks more money for nothing. My doc wont argue with me, she writes my prescription, no questions. Today I went to get my reserve doses the chemist/pharmacy said no stock and none at the manufacturer, but I know that there are supplies going to all govt departments and hospitals etc for the ELITES. In Europe the chemist dispenses Relenza and half the price here and have been giving it to Covid sick people at least since 2021. US govt has massive stock reserves of Relenza. We the deplorables get nothing!!!! During the "pandemic" I could not buy my extra reserves because it went for the elites.
