  1. Look familiar @DailyDiesel? Still has the Suit Kote truck number on the bumper… Thank you for posting the find @mrsmackpaul!
  2. So @hurstscrambler, made any more progress? I’ve been meaning to ask for a while…. Dave
  3. I seem to remember hearing about a fire too Bob, but I haven’t been out there since the late 90’s. Appears the location is branded as the “Historic Hoover Dam Lodge” now. Dave
  4. I lived in Boulder City, NV (just south of Vegas) for a year back in the late 90s. Best deal I found was you could by the local weekly paper for $0.25, cut out a coupon and get a free buffet dinner at the casino between Boulder City and Hoover Dam on Monday nights. 8-10 of us from the project team I was on would all go out together. I’m sure others contributed more to the casino, but I got out of there with dinner for $0.25 most weeks.
  5. I know I’m late to the discussion, but I’m pretty confident that a mine that is running a hoe of that size knows their costs down to the pennies on a move like this. Breaking down a machine to smaller loads/reassembly takes the machine out of production longer. If you move it in one piece it’s ready to go to work as soon as it’s off the trailer.
  6. If everything comes together I'll be riding shotgun to the show with @Firemack in his former R.G. Smith MH with the Radnor Fire Company's 1954 B75F riding on the trailer. Going to be a great day!
  7. The ATCA post is what I have seen. They held the show last year when there were more restrictions in place, so I'd be surprised if they weren't holding it this year. Looks as if the person that maintained Gerhart's FaceBook page isn't with them any longer so I'm not surprised that it isn't updated...
  8. Anyone heading to Gerhart's this weekend? The weather looks as if it is going to be perfect! Dave
  9. Something new in the fleet Brad, or just something that you stumbled onto?
  10. A rattle can of black paint and it will look factory! When I saw the title I panicked expecting to see a photo of the frame on your project truck. Glad to hear that it is only the mower.
  11. What are you bringing up from your stable Mike?
  12. Looks like you’ve got yourself a convoy there Dusty! Looking forward to seeing everyone and their trucks Saturday. Dave
  13. Yes there is! For those who haven’t been in the past: Macungie Memorial Park 50 N Poplar St Macungie, PA 18062 United States
  14. Looking forward to it! Dave
  15. I’m planning on being there Saturday. Photo at noon at the Watt’s tent as in years past? Dave
  16. I love it when a plan comes together! Excellent progress!
  17. That’s too bad it didn’t work out Brad. The material supplier my Dad worked for was a predominately Mack fleet, until they started buying front discharge mixers. I believe most of those were Oshkoshes. Seems as if I remember him saying the contractors were demanding the front discharge rigs so if you wanted to play in their sandbox you had to have them. They did find that they could get around sites better with the all wheel drive than a standard rear discharge trucks. Problem became that when they did got stuck they really got stuck! Dave
  18. How’d it work out Brad? When you first posted about the truck you sounded pretty positive about it. Dave
  19. Noticed that you haven’t posted in over a week Skippy. Hope all is well with you and the family and that you’ve just been too busy with the project to post. Dave
  20. Hope everything goes well Monday Joey and they are able to help you resolve this quickly. Dave
  21. Sorry to hear of your loss OD. I’m very fearful of our dogs getting out into the road. I’m sure Ollie is with Other Dog barking about you and sharing stories.
  22. Looks like you have a nice collection of signs Mike.
