Sears was a one stop shop i have a reissue of an old sears catalog and it is amazing the verity of goods you could buy from them. Back in the day my gram said you didn't travel distances like we do now so you ordered your stuff from sears or Montgomery wards.

My uncle Andy believed in everyone got involved I was to small and weak to throw the bales up on the trailer so I drove and god help me if I ran into a woodchuck hole and lost any bales off the trailer. A lot of good memory's were made on that dairy farm for a young lad.

B-73 Restoration
davehummell replied to mattb73lt's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That's going to be too nice to drive around your going to have to get another one to bum around in. -
I always checked if the brake canisters were leaking anytime there was an air leak problem I had fittings made up I could block off the lines it really helped diagnosing air problems. the treadle valve placement was a real pain on some truck manufactures. I liked Mack you could take up the floors and get to things, the other trucks were made by people that never turned a wrench

Looks in pretty good shape I drove one like that getting hay in I was 6 or 7 years old

That should pull quite well I wanted to buy a 285 or a 300 for my B but the engine was stuck from setting so I ended up with a 260 hp. and what a difference driving the truck down the road.

To buy or not to buy...

If the cab assembly is pretty good you can really get it set up to your needs without to much fuss and money. -
when you turn it all the way one way or the other you want the spindles hitting the stops before you run out of steering box travel.

I graduated in 73 I went down and registered for the draft and was told your on your way to be drafted okay I didn't get drafted but unlike those that went to Canada or used political help to get out of going I would of went because I am an American citizen and it is the right thing to do. I am pro American as it was until the first of this year now things are really screwed up I hope the genie can be pushed back in the bottle.

. As my uncle would say about some people he is so full of sh*t his eyes are brown. And he would screw up a one car parade.

air cleaner
davehummell replied to davehummell's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I bought the air cleaner from Berry over at Watt's and it went on with a new manufactured mount looks about the right size not to big. I like it -
And some had two big nuts you would turn and the newer ones you push in the adjuster and turn it.

What a crock of sh*t as my mother would tell me when i would try to explain why i did something stupid again. And it definitely pertains to this brain fart of an invention.

Those two made a lot of sense about that Nasar driver's bullshit.

That takes the cake when I read about that lady that got killed over those little shits trying to steal her car. I was wondering what kind of life those little darlings led up to that point and how were they raised? Looks like little worthless animals that should be spayed so they can't reproduce any more worthless welfare shits. Now doesn't that just make me want to march for BLM. Now I'm to pissed off to go to bed. God help us!!

Maybe my turning 65 had something to do with the way they calculated my rates.
