Hard to understand.....they only got a tsumi.......we got obuma

Congrads on the Superliner! I moved in to 1990 last year with a Marmon. I know the Australian Superliners in he 80's had external air cleaners. Paul

AMEN!!

1-999 Industrial Loop off Artherkill road. It's off rte 440. I don't know whats left with the scrap prices earlier this year. They're heavy truck salvage. Paul

SCHOOL BUS IN JAPAN SCHOOL BUS IN INDIA .......and which country do you reach when you have a technical problem with your computer?

Mrs Obomo thanks you! Funny if it wasn't true. THANK YOU AMERICA ! Dear American Taxpayer For only the second time in my adult life, I am not ashamed of my country. I want to thank the hard working American people for paying $242 thousand dollars for my vacation in Spain .. My daughter Sasha, several long-time family friends, my personal staff and various guests had a wonderful time. Honestly, you just haven't lived until you have stayed in a $2,500.00 per night private 3-story villa at a 5-Star luxury hotel. Thank you also for the use of Air Force Two and the 70 Secret Service personnel who tagged along to be sure we were safe and cared for at all times. By the way, if you happen to be visiting the Costa del Sol, I highly recommend the Buenaventura Plaza restaurant in Marbella ; great lobster with rice and oysters! I'm ashamed to admit the lobsters we ate in Martha's Vineyard were not quite as tasty, but what can you do if you're not in Europe , you have to just grin and bear it? Air Force Two (which costs $11,351 per hour to operate according to Government Accounting Office reports) only used 47,500 gallons of jet fuel for this trip and carbon emissions were a mere 1,031 tons of CO2. These are only rough estimates, but they are close. That's quite a carbon footprint as my good friend Al Gore would say, so we must ask the American citizens to drive smaller, more fuel efficient cars and drive less too, so we can lessen our combined carbon footprint. I know times are hard and millions of you are struggling to put food on the table and trying to make ends meet. So I do appreciate your sacrifices and do hope you find work soon. I was really exhausted after Barack took our family on a luxury vacation in Maine a few weeks ago. I just had to get away for a few days. Cordially, Michelle (Moochelle) Obama PS. Thank you as well for the $2 BILLION dollar trip to India from which we just returned! PSS. Thank you, too, for that vacation trip to Martha's Vineyard ; it was fabulous. And thanks for that second smaller jet that took our dog Bo to Martha's Vineyard so we and the children could have him with us while we were away from the White House for eleven days. After all, we couldn't take him on Air Force One because he might pee on some wires or something. PSSS. Oh, I almost forgot to say thanks also for our two-week trip to Hawaii at Christmas. That 7,000 square foot house was great! Love ya! Remember we all have to share the pain of these economic times equally! Love to -redistribute- share- the wealth. SEND THIS TO EVERY AMERICAN NOW STAND UP, SPEAK UP. NEVER SURRENDER!!!!

There was a salvage yard on Staten Island that was full on NYC, Newark and small FD trucks, What are you looking for, older trucks or parts? Paul

I was in and out a few times and there part of sunday. My cousin and I were trying to get his Walters moved in Cutchoque. I should have given you my Cel #. If all goes well next year I should have a running chassis for my AC there. We go "over the line" to the town of Riverhead for E-85 for my '55 chevy when I need the extra bit of power it gives you. 50 /50 mix of E-85 and Rocket Racing fuel.

Lets see, Cali has an anti circumsision law, a law that protect ex cons the same as any minority, nancy pelossi, harry reed, they shut down the richest farm land in the country to protect a minnow, can't buy a dark color car because of global warming, they have santuary cites to protect the illegals and now this! No mention of God, no mention of American history. Hell, what do you expect from the same people who spit on me in 1972 for doing what Uncle Sam asked! I say cut the loose we would be better of and take the HNIC with em! Paul

Since it is cut with diesel, gel may not be a big issue. I don't know. Brookhaven and Islip banned the sale of Bio along with E-85, I think it's a ground water thing. There was a few tractors at the show this weekend in the pull, running Bio Blend with no problems and PRATTS runs most of their machines on it. Makes me hungry to smell it.....mmmmmmmmm fries... Paul

Great !!! Nice to be appreciated!! Sounds like a unique show with those cars. Paul

If Rob can't help, DORMAN makes replacement head lamp adjusts for most apps going back to the 70's. You should be able to match up what you need. Paul

IMO it has the look of a cobbled together set up. Granning used cables with the bags to lift the axle. I've never seen a lift with out pivot points for the lift arms.....ever. Probbly cheaper and safer in the long run to replace it with a new or good used one. Paul

The replacment is unobtainable either used or a copy for a reasonable price. I started to lay out welding up 323 cracks and adding a plate on most of the outer rails. Paul

Great looking birthday present!! Your going to have a ball with it. Paul

Try this type of window film. did this on our trucks and helps with cooling the interior and its not a pmp tint. http://solargard.com/Auto/Home

We have a few that come to our yard . They are made by ICT in La Grange, Indiana 1 800 800 3244 trucksleeper.com

Look it those eyes!! just waiting to chomp down on FI Fi the Volvo mascot. Nice photo it's now on my computer. Paul

I may have been gone by than, Red hair and a beard. The salt and pepper head was the asst department head. To get to EB weld you must have seen the Mitsubushi Milling machine, 25 x 60 foot table set in the floor and a 2 story tool head the operator and observer rode on. It machined the box sections and the wing pivots. They're all gone Grumman, Republic, Fairchild, Seversky, Liberty, Brewster, Gyrodyne and Sperry. Soon across the Sound in Conneticutt Electric Boat, Pratt and Whitney and Sikorsky are winding down and will soon be a memory. Here is where the rails sit. There are over 400 cracks on the pair. from 1/2 inch to 6 + inches. I think its better to look into rails. Locating a good AC chassis is probbly a crap shot for a good 80 plus year old chassis. I'll probbly call the Warren Company in Falconer, NY to get an estimate on a pair of rails. They have the facilities to duplicate them and heat treat them. Cost wise they're not too bad. I figure if I found a set from a current truck,to fill the unneeded holes, add all the AC mounts cross members and brackets, the cost in labor and materials should be pretty close in cost. Any other ideas ??

I was probbly the welder in EB weld when you saw the wing box welded, the green was a liquid barrier for the beam scatter. The paint shop was 2 parts, a automated small parts line with infrared curing and the hanger. That was big enough to do an E2C and an EA6B at the same time. Remember plant 2 was a little more than 1/4 mile long and just under 1/4 mile wide. They actually moved 3 murals. The production line with F-4-f's, The Pacific dog fight with Lt Thatch in an F-4F3 and the production line mural. The murals were encased and the entire wall section was moved. Grumman actually brougt in people from the Smithsonian to do it. Plant 3 is now Nassau Police and Homeland Security ,plant 5 was torn down along with the windtunnel and the Drop Hammer building. Plant 2 is now GOYA and Waste Managments offices and warehouse. The run way and truck shop are gone. Just before I left there was 11,000 employed on Long Island working at Grumman, another 9,000 at Republic, 500 at Gyrodyne and 1000 at Sperry. Now Grumman Data Systems has only 150 employed and the others are gone. Even the Navy / Grumman test range at Calverton is abandoned and being vandalized.The last aircraft there was the reconstructed Flight 800. Every one works in aviation, my aunt and mom in WWII ,my pop, 2 uncles and 3 cousins and my wife and I. Grummans even paid for me to be born. Nothing left except a few museums and a F-14a and a A6B gate guard. Kind sad not even a plaque where Lindberg took off. Guess it doesn't fit in the "new order". Paul

I only thought that,never said it

I was in the northeast corner of plant 2 (the one with the radar ball on the roof ) in dept 022 Airframe weld shop and later in dept 050 Hydraulics. the weld shop my first assignment was the F-14 Tailhook plate, My last was doing Electron Beam welding of the titanium wing pivot boxes. EB used a combo of plasma and laser in a vacum chamber to fusion weld 1 3/4 inch thick titanium. Some of the best education I could get was the Navy Critical Weld Certification. Started fresh out of service in 1972 left in 1985 when budget cuts slashed purchases.. That mural was in the loby of plant 2, now it is in the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Uniondale. Paul

That knot hole isn't a defect, thats for the beer tap or the mouth tube from the keg.
