  1. I want to remove the outer and inner fender as a unit,was wondering how heavy this will be,and if anyone has done this without a helper. Thanks.
  2. Hi Paul,what kind of tree was that?Must`ve been as big as a giant redwood.
  3. I guess polishing journals is more involved than mounting the crank in a lathe and hitting them with emery paper?
  4. Is there a way to trace the ownership trail of a vehicle through some sort of DMV database.I guess it would have to encompass all states.Sounds improbable,but it seems like almost any historic records/trivia can be found online if you know how to dig.
  5. I got my info packet from the Mack museum yesterday.My 1961 B61 was originally sold to Leviton Mfg. in Brooklyn. Does that ring a bell to anyone?
  6. A farm has a hundred trucks? In Connecticut?
  7. So if you didn`t order the heater,did you not have defrost? You`d think a defroster would have been a legal requirement.
  8. The grill shell looks painted,not chromed...ditto the air cleaner.
  9. Does anybody know what`ll happen to Mike`s trucks?
  10. C`mon Larry,pics or it didn`t happen.
  11. That cab looks as cramped as a concave B model.
  12. Show some respect for all the Nigerian princes out there.
  13. I wish my B61 had those hinged front fenders.
  14. What are they looking to gain from this?
  15. Wow,you`ve done all this in a few days? I`d say you`re a pretty darn good mechanic.
  16. Ok,I`ll see if the lever isn`t moving it`s full travel.If that valve did close on shutdown,would it help to keep the fuel system primed?I don`t have a manual primer on the supply pump.
  17. The lever at the pump moves and rotates it`s shaft when I pull the dash knob,just doesn`t stop the engine.I could open the fitting,but it`s not leaking....and it`s cold out.
  18. Mechohaulic,you`re right...the cable moves a lever at a brass fitting on the IP,but doesn`t shut off fuel.The internals must be broken or removed?The other shutoff cable moves a lever just ahead of the governor at the rear of the pump.
  19. I have a throttle knob...it works but won`t stay pulled out,I have to hold it in position as the engine warms up. I`ll trace the inoperative PULL TO STOP ENGINE knob cable,if there is one.
  20. I have two"PULL TO STOP ENGINE" dash knobs.The one next to the ash tray does stop the engine,I think by shutting off fuel to the injection pump.The other knob,to the left of the steering wheel doesn`t have any effect.Is this one supposed to cut off air somehow? Thanks.
  21. That looks as good as the first one...hope you don`t part it out.
  22. Hi Glen,I got rims in Sept,should have edited the post.
  23. Mine too...6 am.But today he stuck his nose out and decided he`d rather not.It was 5 deg F.
  24. Will we get to see either one at Macungie next June?
  25. They are both spectacular.
