  1. Id be as excited as a kid on Chrissy morning if it was turning up at my place Looks great, and dont worry about this turbo spinning rubbish Paul
  2. When it's lagging and sluggish is it making lots of smoke or no smoke ? Paul
  3. You can buy a new harness ? I am stunned at that, thats fantastic stuff Paul
  4. Thats a amazing tractor, there must of been huge shortage of big tractors around that time as even in Australia people made similar looking tractors on that scale, even some professional looking articulated tractors up around the 300 HP mark
  5. Has been a interesting year for a lot of us, keep onlugging away at things and you will be surprised at the progress you make Paul
  6. Im guessing you could if the bonnet (hood) was a fiberglass one If it is a steel bonnet (hood) I dont think you could as it has to bolt onto the cab, unless you do what they do with sleeper cabs in Australia and mount the bonnet (hood) and cab all on the sub frame and the bonnet (hood) and cab moved as one Paul
  7. Well turbo motors dont make boost for only a couple of reasons Lack of fuel or lack of air Does it blow black smoke when its trying to make boost ? If so your lacking air If theres no smoke then I would say a lack of fuel Paul
  8. If you were in Australia you would just toddle on down to your nearest Mack dealer as they always seem to have them sitting there, surly the States cant be that much different Paul
  9. A classic Australian band Paul
  10. Doesn't really get that cold out here but reckon its a great idea Paul
  11. I guess you all are lucky things have worked out ok for the family I still dont know anyone that has had the virus here in Australia so I have no opinion about how severe it is The thought about ones immune system makes sense to me I haven't watched the news on TV since 2007 so I am really dum and only get what filters thru to me from social media and family and friends Stay safe over there in Yanky land and the rest of the world Paul
  12. Just watched this, how fantastic I thought, plenty of Scania action fir KS if he still drops in. Love the mutton chops on some of these fellas Anyway I enjoyed it Paul https://youtu.be/2MFe34eP6U4
  13. Yes happy Christmas to all, interesting Rowdy, got me talking to people about all the stuff we used to do as kids that would be quite llame these days Paper chains, paper lanterns, and we only ever got one special thing and everything else was clothing World has changed a lot, you all stay safe and healthy into 2021 Paul
  14. If that's what it is it will still be pretty steady and 50 MPH or there abouts at full revs Paul
  15. Nope sorry, make sure you have no leaks in the return half of the system as this will cause it to loose prime over night So all the hoses between the injectors, the air start if fitted as well as the line to the tank Paul
  16. Remember that what ever you count you have to times it by two if you only have one wheel off the ground Paul
  17. I would guess the gearing would be in the 8 somethings given its age and what most trucks were like back then No matter what it ends up been its a neat looking truck Paul
  18. Got plenty of axles there, how mucg weight does it allow you to shift Paul
  19. Well I'm officially jealous 😁😆, how good is that ? 😛😍 Paul
  20. I think most tyres are from China or India now, even the good brands Paul
  21. I do miss his input, I hope he is only busy with life but fear it maybe more As always we shouldn't speculate as none of us have any idea as far as I know Paul
  22. Freshly flogged from Facebook Early 90's apparently Paul
