1958 F.W.D.

The ONLY thing that is keeping me and the wife here in Pa. is my parents- who will not move. Believe me when I say (respectfully) that whoever kicks the bucket last (mom or dad....) the second we lower the casket into the ground, my wife will be on the real estate pages looking at properties in the Fayetteville/Wilmington NC areas.......!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your family's supreme sacrifice to our country. And well done for taking on raising your grandson as if he were your own, although I doubt there is a soul here that would ever think otherwise of you.

This is why approx. 1.5 million folks in the Philadelphia suburbs and southeastern Pa. lost power on Wednesday. Some are still not back online and may not see any juice until late tomorrow or Monday. Many power crews from as far away as Chicago, Canada, Alabama and Mississippi are in the area helping out..

Are you sure it was a 671-T and not a natural??? Many of the drivelines in earlier Maxims were set up for 817G Waukeshas running at 3200 RPM's and when swapped out were done so with 617-N's.

Ask Slpwlkr.....I'll text him and tell him to pop in here and sound off if he knows.

Carl I climbed an old wooden aerial one time just to be able to say "I did it." And the flex of that didn't come close to that of a Pirsch riveted/huck bolted aluminum stick.

I've been a Firefighter for 25 years and have climbed many an aerial ladder- but there is not enough money on this planet to get me to climb a Pirsch ladder, especially one THAT old!!!! EFF THAT!!!! They need to be melted down and made into beer cans.

Carl- Sheppard or Ross power steering?

Deadwood was on the same channel- only ran two seasons and then got cancelled. Guess it wasnt all that great. LOL

Ahhhhhh Rowdy- finally someone else besides me who likes JUSTIFIED. As for the super bowl, the only reason I will have it on will be for Medium and Large who have been talking it up all week and really want to watch it. But I predict they'll last half of the first quarter and then walk away- which is when I fire up all of the DVR'd shows I have been saving precisely for tonight. Rowdy- did you like "DEADWOOD?" I think that was Timothy Olyphant's breakout roll. I really like him as an actor- I think he's way underrated.

Welcome to BMT. Here is your life preserver, your safety glasses, and a free rubber chicken.

Shuttle valve may have stuck. Give it a few smacks with a dead blow hammer. Might free it up enough to get it home, then I would exchange it for a reman unit.

Warn us next time, dammit!

Two PTO's on that MH????? One next to the seat and one at the right knee.....????????

Did not know this gentleman but sounds like I should have. RIP.

kscarbel- May I copy and post all of the images here in my FWD Facebook page??? And here is a picture of my toy.......

No one bit on my challenge........"WHERE IN THE HELL IS PUCKERBRUSH" Puckerbrush is also known as "Mill City", Nevada, MM151 on I-80. POPULATION 28; way out there in the middle of no where. To get there, you drive to the end of the planet earth, make a left and drive another thousand miles.The whole town runs, lives and works at the Burns Bros. Truck Stop there. WHERE IN THE HELL IS PUCKERBRUSH is the popular t-shirt that they sell....LOL....... Slpwlkr doesn't count- he was just there this past summer and tagged himself on Facebook....When I saw it I called him in a panic to tell him to grab me a t-shirt but he had just gotten back onto 80 and dropped the hammer.

For a small fee I can have a sudden onset of amnesia if I am questioned about it................

He's got that axe-murderer Ed Ackell appearance..............

You forgot Bird-In-Hand!!!!

The Wagon Wheel on 30 in Paradise burned down to the foundation about 2-3 years ago- took my boys out to the steam train with the intention of going there for lunch but had to make alternate plans...... And let's see if anyone knows what this means: "WHERE IN THE HELL IS PUCKERBRUSH?"

All older (and non-rebuilt) gasoline engines usually call for straight 30W non detergent.

Anyone remember The Wagon Wheel on 30 in Paradise Pa? When it was a real truckstop it was the WW, then it became the Rt 30 Family Restaurant and then a tourist trap called the Garden Gate Diner. Back when it was the WW I ate many a meal there when riding with my pop in his Mercedes or one of the two F-Model Tractors.
