1958 F.W.D.

I only have one question- Is the rock that your face fell on OK? 

Maybe take it to a hydraulic cylinder shop and see if they can rebuild it?

That arsehole got his schooling at Desales University, about 3 miles from my house........😐

The Mack Museum had all the archives but I am pretty sure they were recently shipped up to the Brockway guys in Cortland.

There was a guy at Macungie and 5 or 6 years in a row he would ask me to sell him the F.W.D. Firetruck. Every year I would explain the sentimental value of it and that I would never get rid of it as long as my body was able to maintain life. He would always say "C'mon, I'll give you $10,000 cash right now, I just have to transfer the money!" Finally after the 5th or 6th time I finally told him to FO. I guess that got through because I never heard from him since. 

F&%K. 
That.
S&@t.

I wonder if I could buy the hood off this GMC? Zina needs a new desk.

That looks like something that Underdog would do

chev41 he was always on here,,,then just vanished....im thinking he might has passed over to the better side....

I concur. Paul and I were in regular contact there for a while. He was building a model of a US Navy Apache-Class oceangoing tug for me to give to my father. We chit chatted regularly about anything and everything and he would ask me for various pics of my father's ship but then the comms stopped. Nothing. Nadda. Nichts. Nein. Zero. Zilch. Very not like him. I regret never having gotten his phone number or home address, I tried to find both so I could at least maybe speak to a family member. 

What fuel are you using? 

That Camaro must have a Deetroit innit. It haz a scavenging blower.........

Wow, thank you very much for the kind words. Lots of people were disappointed that you weren't there, they really wanted to meet you. It was very nice, everybody there seemed to have a good time, and they loved the venue. The tractors with mighty Detroit Diesel engines in them were a huge hit with everyone too.

We had a lot of food left over too- a lot! Along with a pickup load of beer. 

You got Hamms for the poor confused soul that painted his bulldog that shit yellow, didn't you?

generjunks are the best selling generators........because every time people need them they have to buy a new one. 

I have a 6KW Generac and never have any trouble with it. I installed a quarter turn fuel valve and run it dry of the ethanol free (the ONLY fuel I will put into it) every time I am done with it.

Here's an old picture. This is a mighty 6-71 Detroit Diesel engine in a 1958 FWD fire truck.

This is me, throwing the bullshit flag. 

PHOTOCHOPPAGE!!

Check the amperage required to run that heater. Bet ya the cig plug isn't enough.

No one else cared for it when I posted something of his hahaha. 

I think it's friggin hilarious!!! The only ones who don't care for him are the ones who think Detroits are the second coming of Christ.

This kid isn’t your guys favorite haha, but if you ever decided to make a video this is the kind of stuff that got him a huge following. If you like engine builds….

I like him because he blows up Detroits!!!!
