    Everything on me is shrinking except for the waist line.

    I buy my safety shoes at Wally World. They are only $30 and after a year I can throw them away and not feel guilty. If I get more than a year of wear...money well spent. But then again, I am a cheap old fart.

    Have you changed fuel filters? Checked for fuel line restrictions?

    Is that a new technical term?

    Some trains that traverse steep grades use engines connected to the rear as "pushers" and "brakes". See this often on the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, PA.

    First Mack, then Hooters, and now the Pentastar. I am glad I am getting old!

    Hey Terry, They looked just as good 20 years ago...maybe more so...long hair too. BTW, nice Mack!

    You could try a winter front.

    Nice find...both the R and Hooters. All the Hooters are closed around me. I am having withdrawals.....TK is just not the same (but a close second).

    I might be able to help with the glass. Sent you a PM.

    The rear axle bar is longer on the RH side. Not sure about the LH side. I think that is what makes it a beet special - the offset. Hopefully eddeere will give us specifics.

    Notice it is made in U.S.A. and of titanium. WTF why do I need a hammer made of titanium? Now the wimmin know what to buy the ole man for Christmas for on the coffee table.

    Main difference is longer axles to straddle rows. Typically have narrow and tall tires too. Notice the offset?

    Leslie, Congrats! See if you can find a facility where you can "rent time" to practice. I was able to rent time at a local facility to practice the "skills" portions (straight line, offset, alley/dock, and parallel parking). Hardest part for me was the pre-trip test. I remember seeing an article a while back that mentioned the only way to get a CDL was through a certified school. P.S. I know a place where you can rent a trailer....

    Hidden eBay IDs are good and bad. Sniping happens on GovBid too. And don't get me started on Craigslist....more problems than not. My "CL account" is "frozen" and I can't access to add or delete postings (and I think any reponses to my ads are not delivered to my email). All I get from CL are automated replies sending me to CL forums for answers. CL was a good idea but too many abusers.

    Mike, I like your idea but eBay "codes" the bidder's nickname so you cannot tell who is bidding.

    Our township had Halloween last Sunday (3p-5p). They always have it the Sunday before and during daylight hours. If you want to "participate", you are to turn on the porch light. We stopped giving candy many years ago...after we had over 100 kids. The kids were "bused" in from other areas. If it was just the kids (10-20) in the subdivision, we would not have an issue. One year a guy rode his four wheeler pulling a big wagon full of kids, stopping at each house along the street. BTW, the little b....ds still ring the door bell even if the porch light is not on.

    I agree with BCR when installing a new/reman turbo. May not be a bad idea if the truck has been sitting for year or so.

    I do not have an opinion (surprise surprise). I do appreciate "someone else" searching for items and posting the results. I do search on my own but sometimes amazed at what others find. Many of the items are too far away, too expensive, or just not interested. As for eBay, I usually bid what I want to pay and if I get it OK, if not...I will get over it.

    ECD, Do you know what model fits this tractor? Try searching www.tractorhouse.com www.fastline.com Update: TractorData.com shows MF loaders 1040 and 1055 fit this tractor. The 461 was made in Turkey and uses a Perkins 3.3L 3cyl Diesel engine. Update #2: There is a video on YouTube...search for "Massey Ferguson 461". It shows a Bush Hog M346 loader installed. The dealer mentioned in the video (Mast Tractors Sales is located in Winesburg, OH. Sorry can't post the link (IE11 ).

    With all the work done on this truck/engine (excellent btw ), I would hope you rebuilt the engine.

    I was thinking the same thing last week...been awhile since Mark posted. I am with the rest of you....hope he is just busy and nothing serious happened to him or his family. Miss seeing your posts. Hurry back!
