  1. The casting that positions the spring clips and center bolt is always wet and full of rust/scale.Were there originally rubber plugs or grommets to keep this bowl dry?
  2. I hope the mixer cab with no glass is kept covered,otherwise it`s being left to rot,not saved.
  3. Ok,thanks everyone...I`ll experiment.
  4. So there`s no point in ever using 5`th low or direct,right?5`th low is lower than 4`th Hi and 5`th direct is virtually the same as 4`th Hi.
  5. Ok,I`ll try that,thanks.Haven`t done a lot of splitting yet.
  6. When shifting from 3`rd to fourth gear,my tranny will not go into 4`th gear until the revs drop below 1000 rpms.I`m never pulling anything but if I was, wouldn`t that be lugging,and not good for the engine?This is a double overdrive transmission w/ a 5.78 rear ratio.
  7. Where do they put the air filters on those trucks?
  8. Is a small amount of movement considered normal/acceptable?
  9. Vlad,that`s some beautiful work,so far.
  10. Fabricate,tweak,modify as necessary...
  11. I agree with Bob,it looks like it`s already been restored.
  12. I meant a physical album,located in front of the truck,at shows like Macungie.
  13. I saw KRACKERJACK on Friday.Matt,you should assemble a photo album so people can see the insane amount of work and talent that went into that restoration.
  14. Actually,given the size of the show at Macungie,there`s not that much in the way of vendors selling parts,IMO.
  15. This is what I`m working on. IMG_0342.HEIC IMG_0293.HEIC
  16. You primed over rust? How long will that last?
  17. Reading the earlier posts,does anyone know what happened to Rob and Mad Dog? They were very active on here,then nothing.Same with Vinny,the U model fanatic.Any one ever hear from these guys?
  18. I like the look of the pintle area,gives a finished look,and is different from the usual treatment.
  19. I just used new rubber gaskets on my 673,there was no sealer on the old ones.

    B Model

    The paint`ll buff out.....or not.
  21. Excellent all around...tune,performance and recording.Do you do that for a living?
  22. I didn`t know that S/P switches were ever used in gas engines.As for electrical,are the breaker panel contacts corroded or oxidized?
  23. Gregg Hoffman from Bangor?He hauled my B model up from DE,great guy and a total pro.Has a beautiful MH,don`t think he`s posted on here in quite a while.
  24. Was there a dog house for the engine,like on a B67?
  25. Someone pays you to clean their gun???
