  1. Looks like an exceptional episode of the movie "Gods must be crazy". Same country, same guys. By the word Kenian ambassador in Russia visited me couple of times with a reason to get some parts for his S-class Mercedes. Nice man and I got an impression that things really go much better in that country than you can see it in the movie.
  2. I'm too glad to know you Mike got it but none else. I mean I'm shure it's a good home for her. Both trucks look complete so there's no much sence to build one from the two on my mind. When I was on my holiday I had an idea to get myself to North West Diesel but it was too much for my first trip and too long to drive.
  3. Congrats, good news. What the plan to get her home?
  4. Hell, looks like the one from Minessota. Sad it's a long ways off for me.
  5. Every U-model must be saved! Vinny will do it, we may help
  6. Nice clean B! Welcome!
  7. That shit ice may brake alot. We here hadn't so violant to loose the power for a long while although I got my car's windshield cracked during defrosting it. Started the engine and put the blower in min when system was cold and stayed it for an hour to warm gentle. Broke down nevertheless.
  8. There's a bypass canal with a valve in fuel pump to get out extra amount of pressurized oil when revs are high or other reason. If the valve doesn't close well under normal conditions this follows a shortage of oil supply in the system. The way to go - open the pan and get to the pump.
  9. What is the setup in front of the power divider housing? Interaxle diff lock on a B-model? There's also interesting EFU project for sale in the same section.
  10. The price seems to me attractive. More pics of better quality might help.
  11. The tag on my R688ST.
  12. Looks great! Oh... I have to wait until those Dutches reduce the price in some times though
  13. Haven't noted any vertical strips. It has air brakes (do they EQ's all have?) The truck's location has me scratching my had - not far from a sea port. Although I pass. Should finish any of my projects first. Any thoughts on it might be an ex-army vehicle?
  14. Good report as usual, many interesting. The mighty boat on the ocean is cool. Like the KW and it's color. And looks like the party turned out well with that company again.
  15. What a nice looking rig! Vinny must be going crazy happy seeing it.
  16. I planned to provide such a repair but took that task aside for some while. The main idea was to drill a hole(s) from the opposit side and hit the dent out with some long pin and a hammer. Next weld the holes back. My one is of the same kind but aluminium. I did that way when fixed cavits on the SS bull bar. Made couple of hills and filed them off, sanded and polished up.
  17. Not all but many of those FWD trucks look cool on my mind. If the memory serves me good there were some FWD's used in Russian army during WW1.
  18. DM is nice and I too like the sausage R model looks surprizingly clean.
  19. Especially in the relation to the one with running E9 for $4000 about a year back. Looks solid on the pic though.
  20. Maybe you need to cut a splined end a steering column's shaft and weld it up back shortening it. Not nice, maybe some different way. The installation manual in the pic makes hopes for the best. As far as I know there are steering columns of different lengthes (and angles?) depending on B's hood length. Or maybe this one is only for B61?
  21. I have only seen this one. In Pa. Surprized and thought for first it was some different brand machine labled of the engine in it.
  22. About 20 years back I was offered to get Bobcat front loader for free. With a broken pump though. That time I lived in the city having no land at all. Now the only thing I can do is try to bite my elbow about that moment. RandyP, interesting constraction object you deal with. Too wish it will turn out very well. I like concrete works. (Like and hate, that gray stuff cost like gold when I need it alot)
  23. Leon, I probably can help to ship from NY to Klaipeda or Riga, both the EU. May ask about from Fl also. If I have a B-model I don't miss this setup.
  24. Thank you for the invite although it's a long ways off. Too hope to visit your country one day, old Macks is the main reason to. If you do the event on a yearly basis I'll mark it in my copybook.
  25. Larry, do you have that small hat chrome plated and usable for a R-model?
