thank you for info.

I had the bulldog and pedestal mounted on my '77 F-350 hood. had to slightly notch the bottom center to fit ford hood. don't remember how doggy sat. he did have a custom made red/white/blue winter hat to keep his ears warm.

seems the farmer kids of the early generation didn't need all these present day needles/shots either. had a better immune system playing in and eating dirt. picking veggies from garden we didn't run to water hose and wash everything. wipe the beans/ carrots on work clothes and munch away.

would be interesting to see if someone else has this situation ? grinding the back legs might require some engineering if I remember the back legs sat on a beveled pedestal . grind one too much the ole doggy will be cock eyed .

old school (E -6 ?) transfer pumps had 3/4 hex nuts ; this pump has 7/8 size probably metric . some brake clean an further investigation up coming days.

I don't recall the front legs sitting on the pedestal . one of those things didn't get attention. to me it's another sign of the times items being made cheaper in quality not price. as a thought . cut two pieces of the rubber/ felt put on chair bottoms ? having sticky glue ? install on front legs . neat job in cutting won't be seen but might take the gap up and add support??

time for this ole man to further his education. I've been requested to check a superliner having E9 V/8 400. this is basically a toy truck not at the moment daily workhorse. sits for months at a time (4-6) ? when attempts made to start there is fuel loss . it has the primer pump on the baby v8 injection pump. does this primer have same two nylon T shaped check valves as the old school 6's had ??? I don't think there's a problem other then the lapse time between starting. told owner I would check with greatest source in the world the BMT crew ; so here I ask. plan is to go back fire it up for a while then go back in day or two restart. no fuel leakage .didn't put alot of time on it today; hay baler down at the farm took too much time . two projects 10miles apart.

glad the post might benefit some one.

not only eggs but all farm raised/ grown food is better. hated as a kid being on a farm ;but sure do miss it now.

can't keep this egg topic on a roll . but one more. if millions of chickens had to be eliminated , where did they go? in to pet food or on the shelves for consumers to eat ! how did the shortages resupply so fast (after Easter) kept the remaining chickens on overtime ? or did they take the "rainbow" roosters and put them to work making eggs.

even with enlarging the picture . difficult to see wheel; almost looks black from shadow. one fine looking unit. thanks for picture. now the pressure is on to get yours done looking same.

the egg saga was enough to panic people to buy what they didn't need / raise the price. bet no one walked in to the store back room to see if cases of eggs were there to give appearance the store shelves were empty. like the gas -goes from $1.50 per to 6.00 then when it drops to $4.50 people are happy price came down!! it's still $3.00 more then it should be. if you have an item for sale which you want $100.oo for;; do you ask $100. OF COURSE NOT. you ask $175.oo knowing the bargaining will bring it down to $150. oo . so seller(government) still screws the public which think they are getting a bargain since over rated price dropped.

you have all the components to build your own gym. take a mounted rear tire -roll it up/down street for few laps.or two brake drums on a pipe== bench press . another u tube video in the making .also ! neighbors start watching. you can give classes. will have enough $$$ to get the DM up and running.

confused as to the walking beam suspension 'then realized it's a DM 6- - S;; not SX. 38 rears ????

if you bought the $150.oo hood think of the experience not gained/ my biggest "dumb move "was two simple words :::I DO !! have been paying ever since.

is it going to have a chrome bumper or painted ?? I'm between DR visits for a while ; will it be ready for the sept Labor day parade so I can ride in it ??

ever think of posting this DM rebuild on U tube as an editorial for us folks to learn ?? don't know how that works but your subscribers might help with the $$ to repair that DM. from fiberglass to steering box over haul this has been for me very interesting.

before they are allowed to live in your house ; you MUST support a bill to let them out of prison!! forget the key to your house;;; leave the door unlocked . also I don't want to give the politicians a key to my house:: some of the biggest criminals . just say in

no their NOT. another way of wasting millions of $$$ on paper. no one questioned how the jan 6 "invaders 'got into the white house; where was secret service ????????? why didn't the price of chicken triple after the virus killed millions of chickens; just the price of eggs tripled (right before Easter) . sadly the American public believe what the controlled news reports

this site ISN'T about enjoying stress. just the opposite from an ole mans point of view. [point of this forum is to change direction and look at a "comical" state of country affairs, definitely NOT a one sided soap opera. like Lady Liberty ; eyes closed and listened. can't find much to laugh at anymore. skipped work today and walked around walmart/ home depot ;;; never realized the tension/stress!! no one smiles/says hello any more.

want a good laugh OR a scary thought ;; look at the pictures posted on B model auction ; see how the pintle was "attached" to the B model. cut rear cross member middle out ; welded in a pintle hook. !! now that's frightening

if only he did go

objects of the tarriff is a positive ; sadly system is tooo far gone . also the people filling their pockets $$$$ will make the tariff idea look bad.if only there was a way to back step time. based on told experience , my Grandparents being IMMAGRIMANTS who came to this country in 1905 worked their ass off to buy a farm in CT . when 1929-30 depression struck they didn't know. THEY WERE HARD WORKING POLISH FARMERS. you want to live ==either you raised it or grew it to survive, and they did. greed has ruined what should be a great country. NOT a ruler but a great country. sorry kids. it wasn't this why back then☹️

If trump and others make their millions from oversea investments; are they paying the tariffs working class are paying on oversea "products"??
