  1. Has anybody had any experience finding draglink end rebuild kits for an ED (1939)?
  2. You can call this imbecile anything but dont call him a quitter he just forges ahead no matter what.
  3. I believe the owner of the B just bought the railroad earlier this year
  4. Took a trip up to North Conway NH for a couple of days. Went over to the Conway Scenic Railway station to take some photos. Saw an old steam engine, some old diesel engines, a big snowplow and a really nice solid B42 dump owned by the railway owner and a nice Divco. The B Model looks to have been converted to diesel.
  5. https://boston.craigslist.org/nwb/hvo/d/antique-mack-trucks/6705723281.html Here's one (not mine)
  6. Did you take the dam tour and ask some dam questions?
  7. Not on my new drivers license photo.....yeesh
  8. My buddy Victor who owns this 39 ED is looking for a 4 speed direct and higher ratio gear setso he can get up to about 40mph with it. Right now it's a 30 mph truck with a 3 speed and 6.33 gears. Anybody know of anything out there?
  9. She's the one who comes out with a clipboard and tells you your'e doing it all wrong.
  10. If you do it yourself don't get wireless, I used wireless at my shop due to the cable runs would be 150' but the cameras lose contact with the base monitor constantly, useless.

    WTH!

    Jim you don't know your own strength
  12. Was having an issue with the alternator on this truck, whenever the main electric fan and the AC fan would both be on the belt would start squealing. Single wire alternator that I thought was a 63 amp and the fans together were in the neighborhood of a 50 amp draw. I picked up a 100 amp single wire and a #8 battery cable to run off it and all is well. Looked at the stamping on the side of the old alternator and it said 37 amp, that little sucker really was working hard.
  13. Thanks Paul, actually cut a couple of pieces of the tubing that I used for the taillight brackets but Im would be better off with aluminum tubing
  14. The only time my grandfather wasn't smoking his pipe was when he was eating steak and potatoes or bacon and eggs. I don't know how long he would have lived but he got hit by a pickup truck at 87 when he was going to buy the paper at the corner store
  15. Anybody have a couple of the wedge shaped chrome collars and retaining nuts for the wiper shaft posts on a B model? Probably the last thing I need to find for this truck. I doubt there are any floating around but it's worth a shot. Punch list for this thing is getting whittled down, relays for the head lights, relay for the power windows so the little lights in the switches don't kill the battery, got the AC working right (I had it overcharged) found the only thing I didn't replace in the front end (draglink) was worn out so replaced that and centered the steering wheel. Just got to get the wipers finished and I'll have to look for something else to do.
  16. Yup it's only a quarter mile down the stret to the old nissans
