Tommorow is the 70th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Here is some Pearl Harbor vets talking of memories. At about 3 1/2 minutes you'll see the capsized Oklahoma. My uncle died there.He was China Navy and was on the Pennay in 1937 when the Japanese attacked it. Transfered to the Okie because it would be safer. Wish I could be there at the new Oklahoma Memorial for it. Paul

I seem to be missing a few, But I was raised that friends are friends because of how you are and how you treat them ,not because of views or opinions. I value all I have. What is interesting is I, recieved 2 negative reps from "members" with no posts. One for asking what color a R model was and one for some other equally piddly thing. Paul

You're gonna go blind

Told my son that when he was little, he told me he'd stop when he needed glasses. Paul

I've seen that before! PACCAR makes a truck cover that looks like a Mack, so people don't see the Paccar being towed. Kind of like Ferrari transporting their dead cars in an enclosed trailer. Stealth my friends, stealth. Paul

Happy anniversary to you and yours!~ You are catching up to me and Gail, only a year to go. Paul

HO Penn Caterpillar, where my gran son works part time has one to haul their low boy for pick up and delieveries. Looks o.k. sounds o.k. but watching the driver go up the road with an automatic just ain't natural, probably a good tranny but I don't like automatic anything. Paul

Got to remember that when I get to my mixer. Paul

Great photos, wish I had pics of my families and my stuff. Paul

Opened up my Over Drive mag today, came sealed in plastic with an additional thing. Turns out it was a 2012 FrEiGhTLiNeR calender. Almost put it up in my yard office. Figured nobody would know, whats the harm? It's only a calender....I can take it down any time I want, and walk away.....I'm not addicted to Freightliners...I can quit! Tossed out and put up my Gaberalli Mack calender. I felt so dirty....Paul

Cheaper to just eliminate the back of the fender in the forming process than make different tooling, I'd figure. Paul

You wonder what the "H' goes through some ones mind to scrap something like that! Looks like a great save to me! Paul

I never thought there could be another one...

I think Paul nailed it. They look nearly alike, but the DE is really rare, I think Roy Moxley has one, but I can't come up with a picture. Here are two pictures I could find, but I think one is an E, and the red one is a DE.

Dave

The red one has single rear wheels, it's a 3/4 ton ED. 1938 to 1944 , 2686 made. There is one for sale on Craigs list in eastern Conneticutt now for $7000..........confusing letter call outs ain't it? ED is less capacity than a DE which is less capacity than an E................... :twothumbsup:

I was thinking the same thing on the hub or drum, they would both be constant and would also have gone away on light braking. Paul

I'm okay to be on thin ice,I got my water moccosans on.

Sure thats a him? I see boobs... been a long week........

Man that is one cool truck!!!! But yes I agree it looks like an E model

The DE was the light weight version of the EE, about 900 made over 4 years and most were U.S. Navy General Service units. The main difference aside from the 1 ton less capacity, was longer front fenders and trim, the power pack and 20" wheels. Paul

EE / EH

The Liberal Handbook instructions are to immediately label everyone as a "Racist" if they should dare to criticize Obama. Most who use that word can't define it.

You've got to admit...........most presidents are fun.....Ford tripping on ever thing, Bush tossing his cookies on the Japanese Prime Minister, Bill Clinton looking over the Korean DMZ with the lens caps on and how he kept losing his cigars, Bush jr. and the supermarket scanner, Reagan hitting the "launch" button instead of the snooze button.....They just are a wealth of puns. Heck even Nixon had his moments when Pat caught him seated in a Pete.............

Nice!! Show it when you get all dressed up. Paul

1939 to 1942 Mack DE 1 1/2 ton. Powered by a Continental EN11 210 cubic inch 6 cylinder. It's missing a lot of trim on the nose and has the military pattern bumper assembly. Paul

I don't know what Mack parts would fit, but both GM and Ford in the late 50's to the early 70's ran a P.S. unit that was attached to the center link. If that would work it would not require the stock box to be changed. Only the P.S. pump, lines and push / pull cylinder to be added.

My B has Mack air assist steering probably adaptable to yours also. Paul

Heres the other style air can with the short fender. Paul

I try to help out some before the holidays.....that way I get more coal in may stocking.

With a bounce that bad, I'd think if you jacked the front wheels off the ground and spun them you see which one . Than I'd start at the tire and move in from there. Your suspension has been checked? Paul

Look at Gear Venders under drive / over drive set up. I believe you and get electric shift or a mechanical (twin stick) and button it up to a 4 ,5 ,o6 spped New Process gear box.

You could also look for a Brown Lippe Auxilery box for 40's/ 50's medium trucks. Paul
