  1. Back in high school when I was working at a York Steak house, my buddy Tom decided he didn't want to work there any more. Middle of Friday night dinner rush, full dining room and line out the door he pulled the Ansul system and came out front singing Let It Snow. That sure was a lot of fire retardant powder, management was not amused.
  2. Wouldn't even need to get off the couch if there was a fire, just reach over to the end table and shoot.

  4. Black button is trailer air. Pretty sure it is original.

    Last LTL?

    A friend of mine called about this truck a couple of weeks ago. 100k
  11. Bare Cove fire museum has a Buffalo in storage, next time I'm over there I'll send you some photos.
  12. Well there were a couple of photos of Marv's Wellington truck and I'm pretty sure that was Gary Mahan posing with Jack Comer in front of the lowbed. It seems that he wanted to talk about the trucks, wonder how much got edited out.
  13. That's Jack Comer The Comer collection
  14. Don't know Carl, they lettered the hood "Buffalo". I didn't see an owner, They had a couple jr high school girls on it handing out Halloween candy.
  15. It sure is Jim It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up. Ferris Bueller
  16. It's owned by Hallamore
  17. Took the big bad wolf (oldest grandaugther who loves anything with a steering wheel) to a local Halloween touch a truck. Fire trucks, trash tucks, Bigfoot, a Buffalo fire truck and a 1940s Chevy pickup. Chris Barry brought his RD822sx, 500 horse E9 with 73k original miles. It just got lettered a couple days ago.
  18. Not too much progress but I got the welding and grinding done on the fender extension, made a wood template / work mount and layed the first coat of filler.
  19. Older round tube sign cranes had ladder sections bolted to brackets on the tubes, you would climb up the ladder (each section as narrower than the one below so the rails would ride inside each other so the higher you went the narrower the ladder) and stick your legs in between the rungs and stand on the greased round tube and squeeze the rungs with your knees and start working. No harnesses this was before fall protection, I never felt all that intelligent up there.
  20. 6 weeks. I've only driven it a hundred feet or so and that was too much like work.
