    Happy Birthday!

    That's one of difficult to imagine situations. But now you see it's real.
  3. Vladislav
    And the one on your truck looks correct to me

    I just have no Bedford cab to put on my truck and get a jump on the resto. I'm a stock liker and generally see not much of historical value in deep modified vehicles. There could be some exceptions though when a modification itself has a history on it.

    Hmmm... But I still don't see where maple syrup is running?

    Too sad indeed. Seeing the shots I note to myself how good your highways are done with that great distance between the lanes of different directions. Not difficult to imagine what could be if they are close to each other.

    I feel for you. A good term is "the freezing point". Helps me out alot to figure out "SAE" weather conditions

    That's a hell dance indeed. We have all in order overhere. +5 +10C November and December with snow appeared exactly 2 days before the New Year. Than about -20C during all January. That it became nearly 0C in a couple of days and stayed that way all February keeping the snow on the ground with storms from time to time. Nice winter!

    -18 Celsius isn't terrible. -25F in Pennsylvania makes impression though. Hard to beleve and wish you to get warmer. The math isn't an easy one. You have both to offset and proportion. I've just figured out that 80F is about 20C so far, good comfortable weather.
  11. Vladislav
    Sounds cold to me. Don't know how much 0F is in Celsias and currently don't want to. Have 0C outside right now. Tim, hope you have a set of warm clothes in your vehicle for some reason. And stock of food, matches and firewood

    Paul, thank you for sharing, that's pretty interesting. From the pictures I can see the conversion was deeper as only re-cabbing. All NR's originally rode on the spoke hubs and those two have Budds. Neither of the original fuel tanks there as well. From the pictures I wouldn't determine those trucks as NR's at all but I don't doubt your info sources. Didn't know your neighbours used to grow up iron woods Have never seen it myself, anything you can cut here floats.

    Wonder what that bridge was made of? Difficult to trust but it doesn't look as solid concrete.

    Beast! Custom built?
  15. Vladislav
    Thank you for the answer. It's just a usual thing when you used to think you knew everything on a subject and at some point something almost new shows up.

    Ha-ha! I would think the owner made no more than a test drive miles on it. Used to ride in Mercedes so far. Or a heli. I don't know and about nobody either. That's the after production one. The most of them were built in 80's and 90's. As for the cost I think if you split it 4 times it would probably work. If 10 times I suppose the chances would be good either.

    What is a flat back cab? All of what I've seen had two horizontal "dents" from left to right.
  18. Vladislav
    Maybe some extinguishers in the load?
  19. Vladislav
    I like the way it looks as a dump.
  20. Vladislav
    I would at least cover them with primer. Glad to hear you've got a progress
  21. Vladislav
    I wish the work will keep you warm! Some amount of warm up additive might be put inside but I would do it AFTER the job is done
  22. Vladislav
    Great pics! Sorry to hear the trucks were gone.
  23. Vladislav
    Seems like a normal front end heigth to me. The green truck probably rides on 12.00R 24.5's wich are tall. Both my R's have blocks of about 3 or 4" between the beam and the springs and I'd bet that's from the factory. The pics show the front axle off R688 of late 80's wich was parted out. You can see them blocks. Note the paint is always the same.
  24. Vladislav
    I see no trouble if you need some shimming, no grinding
  25. Vladislav
    Cool! Looks like they built custom front fenders. Or customized original LT ones.
