  1. Great blue elephant! If I'm in a dump business I would be happy using that stuff.
  2. I might be in interest for 4.17's. Carriers only. Will contact you if get real want. Vlad
  3. Oo! The translation is good enough. English has less variations of words so when you translate Russian words direct you have a result close to be correct. Of course I could understand everything but words corresponded to each other not good. Russian language to use is a real disaster. We have to study it 8 years for 1 lesson each day. So don't take it serious. You interested in and it was nice. I just read somewhere about languistical game when a group seats around a table and gives a frase from one to the next with translating and back translating each time. The last one related the result with the original.
  4. Glad to know you're Ok. Paul, great equipement!
  5. The one in the lower pic was wery beautiful during some weeks. Yes, it was me, but I haven't leaked anything on under that green. And the blue car was also mine.
  6. Wow, that's funny! Thank you Although it's easier to me to read the second section. Wonder what would you read when translate it with a programm back into English. You did wrong putting the second half. It might be more and more funny
  7. Maybe James. FIAT built the car production plant in Russia in late 60's and it made revolution in Russian car building. They are LADA's now. Not good enough nowadays but were 2 steps in front of everything produced until they became. I'm shure FIAT got good income from Soviet govnt and had no sorries. As about Mack it was the Cold war time and politic played his role more than economy. Interesting fact (maybe I told you): nobody overhere knows about that project. Although 99% people in Russia doesn't know what Mack is it!
  8. Haven't seen that number on the lower left hand corner. Did the kid forget to add it?
  9. That one dancing on the bumper... I probably have seen her somewhere before...
  10. Thank you for kind words! Although I'm still in doubt about it. I see I misstyped one letter. But I know I don't have any valves under MY hood Or maybe I needed to wright "mine's"? Leslie, there are all 24 valves. I have a pair of spare heads removed
  11. Bevare trees and be careful! Although any thing that makes snow existance pleasure is very nice. Enjoy winter with!
  12. Love that "stopped raining". Drove something like that yesterday.
  13. Paul, Kremlin is Russian word (or maybe Greek or Arabic) that means fortificated city. So there are many of them still in existence. Most cities those had importance more than 200 years ago had walls and towers. Some of them were wooden, and Moscow Kremlin was not the exception. Later they were rebuilt of stones, Moscow one also furnished with bricks from outsides. So you can see many Kremlins in Russia and many old monasterys those have the same look but aren't Kremlins because aren't cities. Usually they are kept in good condition because of historical value and representation of modern city's face. Those were occuped by Germans were partly destroyed and restored after the war. Such as Smolensk, Novgorod, Pskov and many of less size. Mike, I see much interesting about the US each time I'm here. And don't only see. Lots of facts in articles you post or links to, movies, just frases in posts. And when I see any truck pictures there are also different things at the background. It's nice for me touching life of your country and it's not only pictures but your minds, language, weather, and everything else. Looking your life I better understand my one. Would be glad to see shots from you. Thanks. Leslie, I'm starting to think camels live everywhere!
  14. Lots and lots of Macks! Great company indeed. Too sorry about their shape. Perfect demonstration of reliability.
  15. Going the same way. If the memory serves me good, Vinster must know.
  16. What the damn nice looking stuff you publish guys! Awesome King Kong! B75 was also.
  17. Most well-known Lend-Lease American truck in Russia was Studebaker. Along with Willises and Harley-D's. As I told many times, the thema of Lend-Lease was unpopularized in Soviet Union during the Cold war time. If you add here that no privat person could have a truck as a property until 1991 (Socializm was a prohibitation of privat property for any production facilities) you can wonder how many Lend-Lease trucks survived here. Probably some hundreds all'round the country. Or maybe less. Little addition: During 90's years and earlier I haven't see any photo of Lend-Lease Macks in Russian books. One pencil-draw picture only. They became later, many of, but when the internet start to be of service.
  18. Everything above is true for shue. So you hefinitely have E6-350 4v under the hood. As under mine hood also
  19. You have truelly got VIP status. Some days off and the forum starts panic
  20. Glad to know you like it. It was a happy chance to meet my friend there. I visited that city once before and with a car but didn't note and see so many interesting. He was a real "aborigen" groving there (he's in Moscow for last 20 years I know him). When he met me in airport he told "I rented an appt. for you in some special old house you'd like to see". And he sorried too much that those old buildings going off with constructing new ones of concrete and glass in the same places with no general style and great tasteless. Some of old houses are just burned off from time to time probably specially for acceleration of wasting, you can see it on pics. So that was a beautiful chance for me to see it now when it all still exists and for my friend to tell many stories about what he really love. Starting to make pictures I thought it would be good to put them all here for a show. Because you are all guys shure like everything ancient and uncommon. I also was surprized too much seeing camels on a snow surround so we made a turn over to get them photo fixed. Here's a shot of the Kremlin from my previous summer trip.
  21. Bad guy Olivetroat is not with us now. He wondered too much about personal tour guidence. Hope you folks enjoy seeing the stuff.
  22. Sorry to learn you need to sell your B. Always like how it looks. Not ready to make a deal as usual. And you know it couldn't be easy driven to my home.
  23. The double frame looks with no much rust. Low milage is good for a work, as a hobby truck I would prefere more miles with less $$. Does RW713 mean E6-300?
  24. Milk tank looks like a great size diamond. I like RD's with a modern hood. The sleeper seems to me good enough. I'm looking at it now and thinking to myself how easy looks a ready stuff and how much labor that nobody can see it conteins.
