  1. Or a surface grinder if it`s too thick,doesn`t sound like the OD needs to be turned down.
  2. I was hoping to see a 16v-71 w/ 4 turbos under the hood.
  3. I googled Autocar AP-19,it came up.Sorry,don`t know how to drag it here.
  4. There`sa walk-around video of this truck on youtube,it has the Barnhart paint.It had an automatic tranny.
  5. Wow,what is that Gerosa truck model? That beast is huge!
  6. Middlebury must be a prosperous town...
  7. I thought pressure always bleeds down after a few hours.
  8. 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?
  9. I hope the mixer cab with no glass is kept covered,otherwise it`s being left to rot,not saved.
  10. Ok,thanks everyone...I`ll experiment.
  11. 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.
  12. Ok,I`ll try that,thanks.Haven`t done a lot of splitting yet.
  13. 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.
  14. Where do they put the air filters on those trucks?
  15. Is a small amount of movement considered normal/acceptable?
  16. Vlad,that`s some beautiful work,so far.
  17. Fabricate,tweak,modify as necessary...
  18. I agree with Bob,it looks like it`s already been restored.
  19. I meant a physical album,located in front of the truck,at shows like Macungie.
  20. 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.
  21. Actually,given the size of the show at Macungie,there`s not that much in the way of vendors selling parts,IMO.
  22. This is what I`m working on. IMG_0342.HEIC IMG_0293.HEIC
