  1. Wow! Tim, there's no need to go to NZ exactly for sight seeing. It's just enough to follow you
  2. Sounds like a time to calm down and let the things to cool off (wonder where I got so many figures of speech from??). Sorry to hear but I have no doubt you're full of extra truck getting advantures.
  3. Motorhome? It sounds much more attractive than just a trailer to rent a place in. Really nice looking rig. One of the kind?
  4. All that sounds like a deal. Thank you for the story, I think you've got enough additional emotions now to go through all the project. Best of luck to!
  5. That's from the Wiki section on here
  6. What the year that thing is? The front axle looks different to the one I have.
  7. Congrats on the deal
  8. And I might be interested in the seats but the canvas (liners) only. If the back rests are toll ones and the cloth has no damage. Too heavy to send complete seats overseas. Vlad
  9. I was off for some while either. Mike, best wishes for speedy recovery. Keep well.
  10. Maybe. Might sound surprizingly to the most of the community but Mack brand wouldn't make commercial value overhere since not many know what Mack is
  11. Actually it was not Photoshop but just Microsoft Paint off standard Windows programm pack. Easy enough to do a simple work.
  12. You're right, I don't. And I have never been so far to the east where those guys used to play. If not to kid they don't play but do their hard work. Actually the most transportation goes during winters when everything is frozen up. Always wonder how much to fix up in a vehicle after a trip of the kind showed in that movie.
  13. For the best determination of the look try photoshop. If you aren't skilled enough ask anyone who is to help. When I was thinking on the sleeper length I made this.
  14. One more way of barbequing this time. Hope you will not need to make that kind of food again next week.
  15. Paul, i had to spend a while to find this tread. No, there were no single axle NR's. There were some of them converted into single's in Europe after the war. As for you grand father's story (too interesting to hear) there was a military version of Mack EH with gas engine and soft top cab wich looked close to NR one. They were single drives. Too rare thing nowadays. Some went to Australia by Lend - Lease. There was one for sale in your region some while back.
  16. Would be cool to see them down the road. Time here use to go slow though.
  17. Ray, thank you for sharing. My today's favorit is green R with sleeper.
  18. Than you for posting the ex-WW2 stuff.
  19. Cool rig to do that sort of job. As for dancing on that "horizontal ladder" during work it seems to me needed to be slightly used to some knee wobble
  20. That sucks.
  21. Pretty interesting setup. Would be nice to see "in work" pictures either. At least as long as we all like to
  22. I agree a new stuff is the best choice in the most cases (not in all nowadays though) but it seems to me people is worried too much on tyre's age. Thinking deeper this way of things is too attractive to tyre producers so that tendence might be spread by them either. Looking to the matter of facts a tyre might loose its strenght due to excessive loads/hits or corrosion/decay of wires inside. For loads we usually can't know a history but that's more to drives, not steers. As for cord damages they could be resulted by water access. So if we don't see any cracks up to cord there's no risk to it. Sure that all is in theory.
  23. I would say pink dump truck is close to be better that the goat on the hill. The worm is awesome though. Oh, no, I want to say nasty. Thank you for posting guys!
  24. I double the post above, we all like pictures. Welcome on board!
  25. These ones left factory between 1942 and 45. Still hold pressure well. I'm not in much trust to the fronts to drive down the road though so think about a swap to 22.5 radials.
