tjc transport

tanks Larry, i knew i forgot to do something!!!

air filter can is under the hood on top of the rear head. you can see it in the pic with the turbo

well of course!! you would not want us driving around without Bobby Bare or Mel Tillis playing on the radio

stand?? here in joisey our goygah buggys have seats on them!!!

they are both glider kits. with mix/match parts.

the peterbilt is no "new truck" either. a few things i noticed on that were passenger air horn hanging, passenger window broken,rust on the doors, cut, spliced wires, and it looks like the frame has a tweak on the passenger side rear

my bet is it is going to be a dealer only service item, like the exploder trans is. with no dipstick or fluid fill.

there are 7 or 8 over at FTE that are either done up as trucks or done up as street rods. at least 3 are 4 door cab conversions, and most have newer drivetrains in them.

i remember when the "cash for clunkers" debacle was in full swing, there was a dealership in north jersey that was giving the $4500 for cars on trade for new jap crapboxes. then putting th ecars in the back lot. then the CFC debacle was over he started selling the cars. people were freaking out that he was selling CFC cars instead of destroying them. in particular was a 88 mustang gt with 42,000 miles on it, a 99 crown vic LX with 26,000 miles on it, a newer impalla SS with no miles on it, and a vette. the 4 owners went to the government and turned him in for selling CFC cars. after the investigation was over they realized this dealership did not put in one claim for them as CFC cars. he bought them all outrite and resold them, all legal he then posted a little over a year later that of the 6,000 CFC cars he sold, 90% of them were repossessed for failure to pay. this means the people traded in perfectly good cars that were paid for, on cars they could not afford, then lost and were now riding mass transit instead.

after 42 years of stiff clutches, i finally had to get a new knee last december.

not just a clutch killer, it is also a left knee killer.

nothing is too uggly to take pictures of. well, maybe my ex wife is. but no trucks are.

once upon a time it was a decent show, 20 years ago. these days it is all about trailer queens.

you see them on the new jersey turnpike every day going to the turnpike, parkway and port authority offices.

pros: they are monsters that will pull anything, anywhere, anytime. Cons: they are impossible to get parts for anymore if they break.

mt guys do not know of anyone up there, but when you get up here let me know and i will put you in contact with a broker in middlesex county. he uses guys from up there quite a bit, in particular the Venerio brothers.

you need to get the code to know. without the code, it could be anything

cruise control off, flip the set switch and read the malfunction lite flashes. that will be your diagnostic trouble code. once you have the code you will know where to look.

it all depends what is making the light come on.

i have people try to do that every day with the back of my triaxle.

i will ask the truck brokers i know if they know anyone good in that area.

Vlad, with that giant bathtub body, i would have to say he was hauling scrap steel to the smelter.

they are very thirsty. drinks way too much for me. the one we had at the old job would use close to 200 gallons of fuel in a 12 hour day

depends on what you consider north jersey. are you talking bergen county area, sussex county area, or monmouth county area?

correct, ATC is auto traction control, and slightly applies the brake of the slipping wheel. the lightning bolt is the electrical malfunction light, some call it the check engine light.
