  1. I have found that "following our hearts" and later the "regrets "came when the sentence ended with I DO.
  2. heck if your only off by a birthday list !!! I've been told (by a few and more lately) that I'm way off by more than just a birthday list !!!LOL don't want to be the bearer of bad news but looks like your catching up to us (OLDer folk) hope You had the best day and you spent some of it with that pretty Lady ; one that's a little on the trashy side -- burgers and fries lady. LOL🍺🍔🤣
  3. or it shows there are people out there having money and time to sort and e-bay to triple their profit.
  4. 3rd lot of interest was the Mack wall clock; 1 outbid it went for $75'oo I had the bid on 399 which i didn't wait to watch figuring the numbers would be high-- wrong again. checked back after only to see it went for $150.oo. all the early Mack bulldog magazines from 30's-40's . 1 -by then everyone money ran out; 2 no one knew what they were. they were the first version of what became the bulldog magazine yrs later. those magazine would have been full of info.
  5. It's not mine to pass judgment; right or wrong :: agree or disagree . old man like myself, never had to deal with these issues. had an older cousin to which everyone knew was gay. attended family functions with his partner. no one condemned . treat them same as others. guess I'd rather see the rainbow flags waving then a group going down the street waving(shooting) AR 15's.
  6. don't think that's the picture I had in my mind growing up when some one went "bareback riding."
  7. have been monitoring the auction ; there are some people out there with one heck of a lot of money. lot 62 =Mack literature went for $800.oo not counting premium !!!
  8. sure glad people like yourself are out there bringing old people like myself up to date. I forgot about the no injection pump/ mechanical pedal linkage. still don't see a need for lower then 850 jake. around here all you hear are the big pete/kw triaxles using the jake for shifting/making noise then actual slow down. like the 4 wheel tin cans with the ying ying mufflers.
  9. starting now 10:30 winter associates Plainville CT . large lots of truck/auto related literature. I'm outbid on two Mack lots.
  10. my question is ;; why would you want the jake on lower then 850 eng RPM's ?? stall time ??
  11. old school jakes (I installed many) weren't wired into a computer as today's iron. I'd bet you can't; unless some one chimes in with more knowledge of the computer system : definitely not me.
  12. how lucky YOU are. second time around I got the full 4 course/ cloth napkins / sterling silver expectation one ::: Darn! as the saying goes "you don't know what you got till it's gone " . #1 was the burger and fries lady. and beautiful .
  13. and don't forget :: being a little on the "trashy side "means they are content with a good burger and fries :::don't need a full four course meal with cloth napkins and fine china, so I've heard LOL
  14. is that comment based on experience !! OR just passing on rumors heard !!!!😱🤣🤣
  15. my two number 4's arrived today. figured by now taking all 4 side by side it would be easy to say " I like this one better than that one "NOT HAPPENING . 1's as good as 2 -2 as good as 1/3/4 . excellent start of hope to be large collection. #5 ???? THANKS
  16. not good to have a dried out roll between the sheets!!!🤣🤣
  17. count my vote as a yes to Susanna also . '60's/70's weren't to shy about having some beautiful women. not sure is this still on topic ???LOL
  18. why of course you do ; that's one of the signs of a well kept. professional mechanics shop.
  19. not only was gasket paper common back then : it came in different thickness. had the hole punch set and good sharp knife .
  20. didn't think gasket paper was even available anymore ! thought new generation only had gaskets from a silicone tube, 😀nice job on the new ones.
  21. You have my "vote" for the kielbasa and eggs -I missed that food intake !! My hats off to You Sir for Your accomplishments. wife number 2 doesn't understand how a foul marriage entices the urge to alcohol intake.
  22. working slow indicates a great desire to be accurate in ALL aspects of the quality job being done. ;;Sir,
  23. question for me !!! how far did the lawn run 🤣. couldn't help it.
  24. issue with the beer for me is the weight gain. last week or so for me attempting to meet a weight number before this up coming appointment ; NO beer/ eating healthy stuff. DR will kick my ass if I'm over weight. last saw him I was 200lbs (6ft) . today scaled in at 183.4
  25. when draining the oil/ use a kitchen strainer under plug .strainer usually will catch lifter particles. when Mack went to oversized pans ; what a pain -in =ass . helps to make sure pan HAS to be removed. and we all know oil warm when draining helps.
