  1. Better stay in the warm house than in an icy jam by the road. If no really hard reason to find adventures on your a$$. I know it's difficult sometimes when you used to drive all your life.
  2. He probably wanted to rope start.
  3. I'm still wonder what a tranny TRDXL-107 or its modifications is? It looked like a triple counter shaft unit. But why it's not one of the T-200 series?
  4. Cool! The second link looks like from my neck of the woods.
  5. Wind blowing pic is cool. I also like the other shots and the stories. Special thanks for the SGT truck catched. Myself now reminded me of the one nice guy on here. I don't want you to look over every SGT rig's fleet or chassis number though.
  6. Yes, ten minutes ago I clicked Watt's truck sales in the bottom of on here, got to Watts site and opened the empty space where the B-model store should be. Then I looked for this thread, followed the link I posted above and got to where I wanted to.
  7. Those are nice-looking trucks although sometimes such a B seems to me as a L model with a pair of B fenders.
  8. Couple of years back I spoke with a man who had WW2 NM-model, and he was from Brisbane. Maybe it's time to visit the guy and look for his Mack... ? Girls are pretty overhere though, just need to go out from the shop from time to time.
  9. Here used to be posted a lot of stuff to cheer up your self when in a hurry. Welcome to BMT!
  10. Damn, just found this thread. Who the hell posted it in Modern discussion??...
  11. Welcome! We all shure like old iron pics.
  12. Looks like sunny weather with the rest of snow in PA. Awesome heavy trucks, good catch of the boats and the RW, Mack 6x6 jeep is cool.
  13. That saw was to cut foam concrete bricks, had treat-forged teeth but of the big size to work extensive.
  14. If I'd be Australian, I'd like to built RHD offset replica. As for now there was a beast for sale locally although a friend of mine told me about too late and I missed it. She's at the good home now as far as I know. Not a U-model though, DM. Sorry Vinny.
  15. Too surprizingly strange, I saw them more just a couple minutes back. Just looks like I stolled them. If so, please get them back..
  16. ...And the tank! Just kidding. Al might PM me if none else would like to see it.
  17. The guys are little older than 30, Jag is a couple years younger.
  18. When I first seen the RW pic I thought there would be written "Mike Harbison" on the truck. Looking better I figured out there was not. Much more interesting here now, thank you for one more over-the-land excursion.
  19. Joe, thank you for clearing me up. I mostly known with Mack Camelback and Neway Airride. Most other trucks than Macks I'm familiar with (lightly familiar) are the locally used ones wich all are of 90's and 00's years. The "strange' thing I ment there were some brackets in betveen the springs of the FR and RR axles to wich the ends of those springs were attached. Just not too commonly used design nowadays on my mind. Vlad.
  20. Just remembered Rob's theory why people don't use U-models in the Southern semi-sphere. There was something about Careolis' velocity and direction of water making turns in a sh*t vessel...
  21. I'll be glad to be if Farmer offered me again his trailer to stay overnight in, like he did for Macungie. I mean he offered
  22. As about welding I also was first told from the shop where the guys were skilly with aluminium to cut off the end. Although I was absolutely disagreed with that solution due to high chances to get terrible outlook with no way to change it back. So I directed them to make the cut out from the back side of the tank, frame side. The reason to come in was the inside cross wall was off its place laying on the tank's bottom and required to be welded up back.
  23. Sad picture, twice strange seeing fire in a firehouse. I don't want to say "shame", anything might happen anywhere. Good that Mack was survived.
  24. Just tried it, works well to me. http://www.wattstruckcenter.com/store/index.php?route=product/category&path=59
