They just sold a truck like that on EBay for around $4300, someone cut a B down, it looked good, i almost bid on it but it was so far away,(like every other thing) i think the cab was mostly stock he cut the hood and fenders, i would put up a pic but i just can,t figue out how, i ran every dozer up to a D10 and almost every other piece of equitment and trucks but i to transfer a pic i don,t have a cue

Watts emailed me and wanted my Address, i won in there 12 days of Chirstmas drawing, i got a new hat, a nice t shirt and a pair of mack gloves, Really Nice of them, The 1st time i have ever won anything ( the mega lottery would of been better) but still very nice of them, i really liked them when i open the box

Wow thats high, my wife is in renal failure and fights BP all of the time, it can lead to all kind of bad things down the line, I hope yours goes down a little for the long haul

You gots made out, All santa brought me was a John Deere D, a Little toy one thu, It is a Collecter one that will go with my 1st gear Mack Trucks, i have 2 D,s a 37 and a 41 real size ones

i will take one, i would like to get the tool too

How far do you want to travel to get one, there is a local parts yd that i drive by that just got a couple of later ones in, i can stop by and see how much, they are in South eastern Ohio south of Zanesville, or i will give you the number ( PS i know this sucks but i just scraped one last summer

You would have to have a crew cab to haul around all of her kids, one from every county, but she is hot for sure

Good info guys, i hate to tell someone all of the above because it always brings back bad memories to me, but very good information on what to look for, it just gives me a sick feeling to see any of the above

Welcome,you will fit right in, its kind of learn as you go as far as posting, i need to take some pics myself and put in my garage, i just need to sneak the camera out then take some pic,s then try to get them on here, sounds easy, you will know from working in a truck shop alot to help us all out, Barry is real helpful and really good at keeping this site going, Terry

i got some good paint remover, than i got a good buffer wheel and some compound and polish the shutters, it was a job but they look good

thats a tough one, a guy should be able to test them both before buying, but i will go with Angelina, i like to go on the wild side, plus every few yrs i buy a house ( i just don,t get to live there )

WOW, how do they keep them so clean and shiney, i couldn,t even have them in my shop and keep them that clean, very nice

its going on here in se Ohio to, the pre fab plant was turning out houses as fast as the glue would settell up, now they have closed the doors and took alot of small support companies with them, We was looking into having a log home build last yr and nobody wanted to really mess with a small job like that, they had a job about 10 miles from the house where they was building a huge cabin with 5 or 6 smaller lodges around it, Guess what, the guy left them all holding the bag, he took his clohts and was going leaving alot of people holding a empty bag, Its to bad to see your family busness go down, yours is not alone but that doesn,t help you, i know been there too

Ask are President, maybe we all can get a Bailout to by some trucks

I am a 27 yr Union member, ( not UAW ), i seen the hand writing on the wall in my old line of work 10 yrs ago, I worked road constuction for some bigger companies in Ohio, and the work force was really getting out of hand, the old timers and the ones that knew what to do or did there job was no problem, but the newbes who wouldn,t run something if it didn,t have air and radio but wanted a big check, i am sure the UAW is full of the same, Let them go of the way of the Hudson if they can,t help save there jobs, WE all have seen big companies go away before and will again

She has been a real horse at one time, it is about in the same shape as my truck before i started on redoing it, i would like to find a long wheel base like that to put a 24 ft rollback bed on it

Same here, thats a good saying

It always amazes me how low people will go, they need to lock them up and throw away the key, we all know guys in the trucking, constuction busness who has all the toys who are nothing but crooks or drug dealers, i think its called GREED

thats a nice looking ride, i would be afraid of getting it drirty

I have a complete one i would sell, it is complete and ran like a top, still has the tranny bolted to it, it was in a rollback that i had and i tristed the frame so i pulled the motor and switched the bed, i will give you a good deal on it

I pulled for yrs, everything from a 2 cly JD when i was 12, mini rods and finally a 2 wd truck, it takes alot of money to be the top dog, i know laribee with shamless and that is a very high dollar rig, that truck of of your uncles is a nice looking rig, i hope he gets the bugs out

I put in a outdoor wood heater last yr, i have a inside one that i have used for a few yrs, the new one heats my shop, office, house and hot water on the same amout of wood i used just for the wood burner i had inside my shop, plus its alot cleaner inside my shop now, and most importent i don,t have to worry about no fire inside now, ( when i was a kid we lost our house, barn, and a shop to fire, not all at once thou ) i just wish i would of installed the lines in the floor for heat before i had it crement thou, but that was a money thing,
