  1. Bob and Jim, lt's now Central Auto Recyclers on Basin St off Hall St and there is still some old stuff in the yard. And Cohen Steel Supply is next door.......Hippy
  2. Looks like the picture was taken by the old Highway Hotel at exit 14 on 93
  3. Rowdy, ls this the Craftsman model you retired? We have a pair that we use to pull with, 18hp B&S and 3 speed HI/LO trans with 12" tires not cut (Turf Savers). This is the Stock class, 1,000lbs gross (tractor & driver) - 18hp max - 4mph max - any age tractor or driver. My wife has been class champion once, second once and third once. Not too bad for a $50.00 tractor off CL after draining the water out of the gas tank. As far as mine, l parked it, tired of getting my azz kicked by her and losing our bet. Having to do the dishes! lol ..........Hippy
  4. Jim, Very nice looking truck. Hippy
  5. Must have been a popular color then. CoPar and Penn Panzer mowers where almost the same color........Hippy
  6. Someone needs to save this little sweet heart! l was told by my wife that it won't be me..lol...Hippy
  7. HA! Someone bumped this one. Rick picked up the CF '93 Freightshaker in Evansville IN in January and has been working on it since then. lt was used by CF to pull triples from the mid-west to CA. The '90 LN7000 Ford was a CF local truck he got from Black Creek NC back in 2010. And drove it home on Easter weekend at 48 mph!! We got the '70 MB Mack and a '58 Phalen 15T single axle low bed from Bluefield VA in Feb '15 and came home at 52 mph. He has one CF pup trailer as of this moment. We are headed to Peachbottom PA in the morning to get another CF trailer. Two weeks from now it's off to VT for a CF dolly and a look-a-like OVNT trailer for the MB. 41chevy...... Rick says the one in your post is For Sale in GA................ Hippy
  8. My Ol' Man used them in his propane bbq grill. l still have a couple coffee cans full of them. They worked real good for what l remember...... Hippy
  9. l turned one around in Durham NC a long time ago. l was driving a KW COE in the left lane at a merge. She came on from the ramp as l moved to the right. Caught her left rear with my bumper and turned her sideways across in front of me. The first time l saw her was when she came out the left side of the truck going backwards in the left lane. l remember saying " Damn that's pretty neat lady!" with her looking up at me doing 55 mph door to door. l got a $25.00 ticket for Failure to Yield, the local cop was the one that said she was in my blind spot....... Hippy
  10. Funny how l have the same problem....But l was thinking of a sign at the end of the driveway. " FREE CLEAN FILL WANTED" ....Hippy
  11. No tattle tail speedo in it now. lt did have one but someone cut the mount for it off. The hole for the cable is still there by the shifters. We are looking for one to replace it...... Hippy
  12. Bob, Rick and l were thinking of you using JB Wield where the cable pulled out of the drive pin. l need to get into the MB's because it stopped working also.......... Hippy
  13. When l was doing freight l had a customer that had one of these little guys. Started and ran as it should but was always working at it's weight limit....... Hippy
  14. Thinking it's not going to snow again, we moved them around the yard.
  15. Pays about the same as a load of dispatcher brains. At least you don't have to tarp either one....... Hippy
  16. l kinda like the one in the top right corner of page 63.........Hippy

    WOW! Oh and if the cop stops ya just tell him it's an RV. Remember, No Special Licence Required with an RV! lol Hippy
  18. The wheel on my MB is alot closer than l remember too! Come to think of it...... Hippy
  19. I'll stick with the old school stuff. Not impressed with the late model show trucks. And what's with the "itie-bitie-titie-commitie" from Hooters? Hippy
  20. Just looking around YouTube and found this one...Even has some real music with it! Hippy

    What?

    Here you go for a riding reel mower. lt's a Penn. Panzer model made by Penn Lawnmower Co. Notice all of the OSHA approved safety guards on this unit! Hippy
  22. When we built our house in '99 it was all front loaders that delivered to us. One driver was so good at pouring the footing l thought he was going to do it all by himself. Hippy
  23. That's a place for steering wheel holders that can't back up! Just start it in and push. Hippy
  24. You sir are 100% correct! I'm glad someone else is looking at this like l do. Rick and l always say when we see one of these oversize RVs...."OH look and NO special license required!" Hippy
  25. l drive a Volvo (not by choice) with the same set up. Have you driven your knee into the grab handle by the door hinges yet? What a PITA! Hippy
