  1. Just been reading this thred.Absolutley beautiful truck.Best of luck with it.At least you have it running and driving.... Paul
  2. Thats a great collection of BJ pictures.You have spent some time researching the trucks.Well done.I saw the film Convoy when I was 14 years old and swore then I'd get a Cruiseliner like Pig Pens someday.I had to wait 46 years to get one.When something grabs you it wont go away...... Paul
  3. He might be in bed Joey,its 1am over here.I think,but not 100% sure its the same clutch as mine.Spicer Dana.... Paul
  4. Welcome to BMT.Ask plenty of questions theres a hell of a lot of very knowledgeable guys on here.Helped me a lot with my truck.We love plenty of pictures of what truck you have... Paul
  5. Great run down on the history of the trucks/trailers used in BJ and the bear.We did get to see it over this side of the pond... Paul
  6. A lot of wise words spoken here.The MH is a beautiful truck but like my Cruiseliner is really confined to the hobby truck status.Too hard to get parts for,one breakdown could leave it parked for weeks.I dont know the situation in the US but over here it would be impossible to get insurance to work a truck that old for business purposes......just my thoughts.... Paul
  7. Thats a real nice MH you got there.Best of luck with it.I ike the MH,I beleive its a development of the Cruiseliner.There was one MH over here in Ireland but Iv never seen it and I dont know if its still with us.It was a tow truck in the south of the country.Iv been trying to find it or information about it but have had no luck yet,just a picture of it is all Iv come up with so far... Paul
  8. I did think you might be mistaken.Convoy was filmed in'77/78 and Black Dog was filmed in '98.I wonder if anyone has any information on the Cruiseliner used in Black Dog??? Paul
  9. I ran D8 dozers,375 excavators,779 haul trucks, Forklifts,Overhead cranes,Scanskia drilling rigs and other wheeled equipment in a quarry I worked at without one piece of paper saying I could...If you couldnt run it you got the gate......Now lots of people have fancy certs saying they can run this and that and they cant!!!! Whats gone wrong???? To have a CDL in Europe now you have to have CPC cert.To get it its a day every year in a classroom.Last year the guy who delivered the course admitted to us he didnt have a CDL as he didnt need one to deliver the course,just read it out of the manual......Got hard to take it seriously real fast...... Paul
  10. Did you get much done? We are waiting to see the truck roll.... Paul
  11. Some fine heavy haul rigs there.Great pictures.Thanks for shareing them.... Paul
  12. Yeah time is the one thing we haven enough of.Cant be made bought or stolen...Those cars sound like heaven to me.Nothing like that over here.... Paul
  13. Not too much wrong with the brain...YET...I bought that model kit when I was about 15years old and its still not built.Think Iv 16 kits up in the attic that were bought back then and I built about the same amount.I have always loved American trucks from the 60/70/80s.All makes but the Mack Cruiseliner is my No.1... Paul
  14. Iv read the book and that is the story of what happened to the Cruiseliner used in the film.There was also a glider Cruiseliner used in the movie and where it went is in question....That picture I put up is from Black Dog and now the question is...is it the glider kit???? Paul
  15. Is that the same Cruisliner thats at the end of black dog?? Paul
  16. Wow,thats a cool cool R Model.I like the colours...but anyway a big welcome to BMT.We do love pictures so more please.... Paul
  17. Dont have a computer here.My son would have to do that for me...E mail too complicated for me🤣....thats my excuse.The company I work for gave all employees (4500 of us)an i pad thingy I cant even get it to switch on.It was the son who set me up on this site only for him id never have made it on here.Its true to say the whole dot com thing passed me by... Paul
