Sounds good buddy......I already eat a few eggs so Amber pushed me out of the kitchen, so I helped Paxton put my boots on........

Just wanting to wish everyone a happy and safe Easter tomorrow. We've been boiling eggs every since i've been home so we can dye them. Pretty excited for the boys since they can walk good and hopefully be able to hunt eggs. Everyone have a safe day tomorrow.

Damn Rob you don't waste anytime. When I say I'm gonna do something it can be a month before it actually happens. I've seen alot of these trucks rust on the roof like that. What's the cause?

I would have to say......RUN ROB RUN.......just my .02 cents on the matter

Welcome aboard Merlin. Glad to have ya, and it does take awhile to get used to the site.

Don't worry Mike I'll come buy and get ya, we can all ride in the Suburban. Might not be enough seating but a few can ride in the trunk area. I got the front windows tinted too so it should be a little more comfortable

Try wet roads with a 3800# Moffett Mounty strapped on the ass end of a straight truck. Truck won't break traction for nothing but will slide like crazy in curves. That makes me nervous, and makes my heart race like Michael Jackson watching the Little Rascals

This thread is pretty fun. Mike we'll be sure to pick you up for the races. I might have to go pick up Bulldog an just to be a little backup

what kind of crap are you trying to pull now? Bristol's way over halfway- I think Roanoke's about midway.

Well you know, these hard economic times and the Suburban being a V-8 I might not have enough for bandages, dinner, maybe even a movie. Then driving all the way to Roanoke. We would have to put a camper on your little Ranger just to go to Rob's

what's the halfway point between here and Knoxville? We'll meet there and throw down...then do lunch.

How's April 11th for ya? I can make us reservations somewhere in Bristol.....We can met up, fist fight till near death, then dine..We need to dress formal so bring your tuxedo. Who knows we might make a rip to Illinois to beat up on Rob.....That is if his wife don't get to him first

What about Paul? You didn't mention Paul...how come you don't like Paul? Maybe you're "that guy" - oh, you said "and many others". That would include Paul ...never mind. I'm sorry ...I must be off now

Oh what do you think i hate Paul? I guess i am that guy....Maybe you and Rob need to stay outa my business!! I'm my own person and I'm tellin on you guys, you have called me out on two different sites.............Just messin with ya, had to get a little laugh

Not a bad lookin shirt at all.

I think both of you should grow up and knock it off.No need for name calling,and no need to tell a guy what to do with his own trucks,that's his bussiness.I,and many others on here have bought,sold and traded many trucks over the years.That doesn't mean we don't have a passion for them.I'd like to get another B model myself,but will have to sell off something to get one.Good luck to both of you,please end this peacefully.

Seems to me Rob is being civilized about it....

I wish you would just mind your own bussiness.Many people do not enjoy your keyboard comando toughness and have told me don't listen to your crap and have fun.I was told there's "That guy" everywhere,and your "him" here.Just curious,are you a liberal???

To be honest your "That Guy" ..... and another thing when you post something on here you make it "Everyone's" business. That being said let me bring something to your attention, was you a bully as a child? Meaning calling another member a "Liberal" or a "Troll" is that all you can do is be a "Keyboard Commando" as you stated? Rob is definetly not that guy here, we all joke around here and have a good time, but all joking aside people like Rob, Herb, Larry, Tom, James, Barry and plenty others are well experienced and major participants of this board. We all might barely know each other, but as friends we take up for each other......Morale of the story, get on the damn trailer and participate like we all do or fall off and look like a jackass. You cant just show up with your chest all swelled out tryin to be bad, cause the truth will pop it for ya. We like having new members here, but participate nicely or not at all...

Wheelbase is 138".

Damn that truck is short. Nice lookin unit though, perfect for what your wanting it for though.......good luck and welcome aboard

"Rob" is a rude,nasty troll that wouldn't last a minute on many forums(he has attacked me elsewhere).As far as the A Car,the new owner will give it a full resto.That's something it needed and deserved,and i had no place to do it.(pulling the cab off ect...)The B i just picked up cost far less than the A Car,so i payed some bills and bought a cheaper truck.I started the B today and she runs like a swiss watch.Like i said before,i may keep it i may not???I had my last B for 18 years!I took it apart when i was younger and had no wife/child,with big dreams of restoring it.I hated to sell that truck,but it went to a good member who is doing it over as we speak.I'd really like to get a Brockway someday (to keep)because that's what i grew up riding in with my grandfather.

Well first off I'm gonna say this "TROLL" bullshit is gonna have to stop. Not pickin sides, but Rob only stated his opinion which might be the same opinion of others, or not the same opinion of others. Now that i got your full attention, we all get along well on here and if you misunderstand something that's fine, but your not just gonna get on here and start bashing against other members. I'm in no way a ADMINISTRATOR so.........I'm happy for ya if you payed some bills and wot not with you money, maybe you will have luck with gettin a Brockway, but lets just keep it civilized and on the earth level. Rob has been a member of these forums way before I come along and has always been helpful to others so........Good luck with whatever you gonna do.

Don't mean to sound negative to your cause but if you continue to align yourself along the lines of someone trying to profit from antique trucks using contacts on these couple of websites, you will quickly find yourself "out of favor" with those that enjoy trying to help you. If you enjoy antique trucks for what they are and not a profit potential item, you will fit right in. A lot of folks have spent many, many years in the saddle, (both behind the wheel, and repairing) these old trucks, and enjoy sharing/helping others with their endeavors, but if it is behind the curtain to help someone resale a truck, it will not go on long.

I feel a true "collector" would have kept that Autocar tractor you had. There is going to have to be a lot of time and effort expended to come up with something as nice as that truck was represented. Again, don't mean to be negative but you are charting a path that is not in your long term favor.

I ask a lot of questions enlisting the help from a lot of experienced folks on the websites. I have many years in the paint and body repair business but consider myself no expert on anything as there is always a new trick to learn. Nothing I ask is "pegging" people for infomation to facilitate a sale without openly telling folks exactly that.

Just offering unsolicited words of caution to you. Hope you enjoy your B model acquisition.

Rob

Well Rob I thought you was nice about what you said, And Bigdogtrucker he didn't mean anything bad buy it, but the man has a point....You got rid of the Auocar because of "Space" and "Cash" but when you bought this truck what did you end up with? Maybe you just wanted a Mack intead of a autocar, but you should multiply in trucks instead of going through them like crazy cause a man can never have enough trucks. I have a '52 ford F-600 and I really want a B-model, but it has never worked out for me to have one. I just stick with my old truck I've had for 7 years and pretty much nothing has got done to it till the last couple of months. Maybe you oughta stick with one to keep, just my opinion.........

I always liked "Hold up on that car wash gentelmen" & "Give me a diablo sandwich and a Dr. Pepper i'm in a God D@%# hurry"

I appreciate the help guys. I'm gonna try and go up there his weekend "Hopefully" and see if we can sort this problem out. He kinda needs the truck for other things, but with his overheating issue it kinda throws a wrench into the gears scenario. I'll be in touch wih ya James.

A buddy of mine has a '86 International cabover that has all of the sudden started overheating on the least little hill. He was haulin full time with the truck but bought a Western Star and only uses the cabover to pull a reefer trailer around a 100 mile round trip on saturday. The truck is a low mileage truck around 400,000, and the fuel is set on the factory settin. Just the least little incline it'll heat up then shut it's self down. Bobtailing it does fine, but even pullin his savannah log trailer around EMPTY it'll try to heat up. He replaced the water pump with no luck and is wondering what to look for next. Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks guys

I plead the 5th.....

I always just use the cheesey pickuplines to get a laugh outa her....Sometimes I use them tryin to be kinda corny/cool.......She still loves me for my good looks..and my belly

Glad to hear from ya bud.....The whole thing about Otherdog is tru by the way, Rob and myself had nothing to do with his decision.................Nothing whatsoever................Glad to hear from ya bud and hopefully everything will work out. Don't be a stranger

You guy are just to much. I still use the cheesey pickup lines on my wife after 6 years of marriage, she just laughs while rollin here eyes
