  1. Thank you! There is definitely enough stuff on the GT Talk site to keep one occupied for a few hours.
  2. This might be an odd request at a truck forum - but hey, I talk about trucks at the tractor forums. Anyhow..... I built this custom Wheel Horse 855 "Drags-Tor" a while back and I recently entered it in the "featured tractor of the month" contest for September at the "GT Talk" forum and could use a few more votes. If you're interested in helping me out, follow this link to the Garden Tractor Talk forum, set up a user account (takes a minute or two) and PLEASE cast your vote. LINK
  3. They look like painted caps for the drive axles to me. One of the R models I used to drive had clips that bolted to 3 of the 6 bolts on the hub cap, then the chrome hubcap snapped on to those clips. I don't know if the clips were homegrown or store-bought, but I thought it looked stupid and took them off.
  4. The original is a bit grainy so I probably can't get a better quality scan. This one is bigger if you want to try saving & printing it:
  5. I spied this picture in the Parker Store last fall. When I went to get a hydraulic hose made today, I noticed it was gone. The guy that works there told me he kept it when he put up the new sign, so naturally I asked if I could have it. I know some of you have seen this before, but I'll post it again anyhow: I'll be putting it in a frame and hanging it on the wall.
  6. Is it just me, or does the kid sorta have a Bart Simpson resemblance thing going on? I noticed that shortly after I realized there was a kid in the picture - which took quite a while.
  7. Been thinking about doing that with a slice off the front of an R hood. Maybe even get the guys from that TV show "TANKED" to stick an aquarium in the grille opening. This was my all-time favorite, but it's gone now: That was built by a friend to be the DJ booth inside a local bar formerly known as "The Last Cowboy". Heavy snow collapsed the roof of the building and they moved the old F outside. It hung around until they changed the theme of the place & scrapped the truck.

  18. A slant 6 in a U model, huh?
