I would recommend if you do locate a bumper like the one on the truck now, you sit down before you hear the price. There's probably some form of aftermarket around somewhere for it. They're usually between $500.00 to $1000.00. Usually closer to the $500.00 -
😶 you may have just put an end to my occasional fast food cravings

You'd never find aguy to use something like that in this day and age. Now, they just tell you you need an engine. Or better yet a new piece of equipment. -

Bob, the engine hoist (shop crane) I see in the picture is your friend. Get a little creative with it. Light stuff like doors.... don't be afraid to make a couple feet of "jib" on the end of it. I've also found some old V belts are handy instead of chain for stuff that doesn't weigh much . They're much easier to buffer the component you're lifting. An old matched set off a CH handles a drum and spider when taking wheel ends apart. -
I see. I'm right close to there and never managed to see them, also funny the guy that delivers stuff at my shop never mentioned them . Couple of nice trucks there. TY
-
I'm kinda curious the affiliation between Dempsey and those trucks.
-
(lol) I saw this truck first in a different post. I was think'n the old girl still looks pretty good myself.
-
Never. I haven't even seen a running 555 since back in the early '80s.
-
IDK what it is. I'm impressed by the size of it though. The housing too. That whole truck has lots of goodies on it. Almost 70 years later, guys still realize that....pretty cool it's around and running.
-
That is the White double reduction BMF model 😉 Seriously, that one picture has a marking almost looks like a Spicer diamond. Maybe it was some exclusive axle for Diamond T (White) I think they had other components with that arrangement with suppliers in the past. That must have been quite the truck back when it was made.
-
You don't mean Oldsmobiles by any chance .
-
They conveniently forgot all about when they teamed up with White that time to make the "giesel" a 555 converted to run on gas (lol)

It was a movie. I've heard the term over time used when trying to decide something that was tough to make a decision about. I remember watching some of it cause that chick on there was pretty hot. ( this was pre Ice Road Truckers and Highway Through Hell ) IDK if I personally would cut up that V for the Diamond T. Brocky had a good idea.
-
True. nothing says "I work hard for what I'm responsible for" like having spare time to dress up like madonna and parade around.
-
I was think'n more like the Diamond T or the V ....... I'd have a hard time deciding between the two of them. They both look to have potential from what I see in the pictures.
-
This is a little like that movie Sophie's Choice. I'm with Brocky.
-
Two fruits chest feeding. How the #uck is this not child abuse ? Get'n their jollys at the expence of the helpless.
-
Busy busy. Lots going on here. Hopefully it'll calm down a little as spring gets closer.
-
IDK this wacko doesn't sound like a drunk Sylvester The Cat. She does share the same look as the other old @*nt

Interesting......all this time I never knew nancy pillowsy had a sister

Bull in the china shop (lol) reminds me of an old story about the young bull and the old bull. They're stand'n there overlooking the field with all the cows and the young bull says " let's run down there and #@ck a couple of those cows " the old bull's responce........ " let's walk down n #@ck'm all " It'll be a mirical if there's not murders over all this.

Wow, that one looks pretty good still
