Driving in rain or fog without lights on!
70mackMB replied to BillyT's topic in Air Systems and Brakes
No it's not just you gearhead, l've been noticing it for some time. When the wife and l are out and see a car coming without lights on we bet as to what color it is. NH tried to pass the "Wipers on Lights on" law last year but it failed as not being needed. Hippy -
We bought our MB in Bluefield VA just down 77 from Flat Top.

Most of the "Incompetent devices" l know of sit directly behind the steering wheel! Hippy -

Coastal Truck and Auto Body 3610 Lafayette Rd (Rt 1) Portsmouth, NH has one. Looks like the one on CL that 66dc75 posted. I know nothing about it other than just driving by. They use it for yard moves at times or it's out in line for sale. Hippy -

Old B-Model Road Train
70mackMB replied to dave41855's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I asked Paul and this was his answer. Hippy A swag is bed roll a bit of foam some sheets and blankets and all full covered in water proof canvas and goes straight on the ground most times nice and warm and you can use the outside canvas cover as tarp to stay out of the rain when your stopped for a while Another term for a swag was Matilda hence the poem or song Waltzing Matilda -
Welcome LRSIMON, The lettering on the door - Old School Contracting- looks familiar. Hippy

I understand some people don't like the green interior that sits there and stares back at you. But why do they have to paint over it in colors like they do? Overnite repainted our MB green interior twice, first green then tan and it was not very well done either time. Hippy

The best spot mirror l ever had came off a school bus. lt looked like a cat's eye and mounted at a 45' angle on the right front fender. You could see both down the right side and across the grill/bumper in one glance. Watch the lug nuts go round or check if a headlight or fog light was out too! Hippy

The Cornish-Windsor bridge was built in 1866 for $9,000. It was framed on a nearby meadow and later moved to it's proper location It's 449' 5" long with the two spans of 204' and 203' and a width of 24', roadway width of 19' 6" and a vertical clearance of 12' 9". lt is posted for 10 ton. The bridge was reconstructed by the state in 1989 at a cost of $4,450,000. This is the longest wooden covered bridge in the US and the longest two-span covered bridge in the world. Info from "NH Covered Bridges a Link With Our Past by the NHDOT". Hippy
