  1. Next time you must to make a piss stop and make a good picture of that blue U-model. And look at the frame when realizing the stop. For the number.
  2. I like how looks this truck too much. The milege is about half a million, not terrible. Interesting to know would it be sold for that money?
  3. Do you suppose he need so much to finish the U?Or you hope he will need that time enough to finish his all future projects? Vinny, live your own life, take to account everything you hear around, make your own mind about and don't make fast movements. Keep patience and take things easy. Especially about girls.
  4. Awesome trucks Superdog! Thank you. Those early B's are very clean restored. Though the late's are also.
  5. Looks monumental ! I suppose I have 4' pipe on my R with E6? Planning to keep a stock look I need a long pipe that goes under the cab and sleeper continuing two elbows of 90 and some special angle. 84Superdog, do you recommend to ask Chrome Country for GR or ask GR directly? I found a dealer that said "ready to import GR" but need to use another one to contact CC with a inside US shipping. I haven't finished (haven't started) about Chrome although dealing with Phil Young at the moment. So thank you for the help.
  6. Paul, thanks alot for the articles, read them with interest and pleasure. Our world conteins as much information so we need more and more than a whole life to learn it.
  7. Don't worry about guys, we just type.Wouldn't be happy though if you will use "Clad" on me everywhere
  8. Congrats! I think a picture of you both together with Mack is really good idea. Enjoy the life!
  9. Any ideas from where to find another blonde with another sign of the other side? I hope if she has a pair of mud flaps she makes discount for two similar goodies. Nice GF pics.
  10. I mixed up am I too early or late about the time. Happy B-day! Best wishes, more Macks, higher staxx ! (stacks)
  11. Not likely about the tank although you can use the other one for a long time.
  12. B models look in a good shape, that van with the tree is avesome! What the old Mack gasser is in betveen the Camaro pics? It looks to me not from a fire truck, has single ignition.
  13. Date?The time of arrival? Oh,yes, and the serial number??
  14. Paul, haven't you any pictures of that German U-boat? Maybe somewhere in the net?
  15. Interesting Paul, I can't remember I ever heared about that April date as original Barbarossa start. I was shure the June 22 was the choice as the longest day time.About the number of lost people there was a figure of 20 at Soviet times. When Perestroika starts it gets to multiply, I'm shure heard 27. On my mind nobody knows how many were in real. I saw myself the "Brother grave" as it called in Russian of 10.000 soliders. With no names, just a stone with dates. It was near a little village in a region of Rzev. The front line was there for 2 years of bloodfull fights without moving. If you remember, I told, Germans retreated from Moscow for some distance. They found a good enviroment and prepeared fortification. The city of Rzev was on that line. There were 200.000 of total lost just near the village I noted above.
  16. There is too much interesting in the net. You just need to find a correct place. I saw that site, it gets bigger since I was there last. All the info of the kind wasn't published so wide just 10 years ago. At least in open sources. "......." was the name of the book in Russian. It was avalible in the net as a full scan half a year ago. To my great surprize. But that bootleg copy dissapeared.
  17. Now I know the place of that first AC location. Are there any other dogs?
  18. Air income into fuel can make any issues including idle. It realises as bad engine work, governor may trying to keep revs so the play gets. You noted first that the truck runs strong, I don't think she can do it with air in fuel.
  19. Nice story, I just feeled by my back how you drove the ice road. Shure it's better to find out a pissing guy then a leak from anywhere the truck. Thank you, and for the pictures.
  20. I like how look these Volva's, lots of overhere. But it's better to put things in their places.
  21. I started to think to make a gallery in frames on shop walls
  22. Paul, thank you for sharing dora gun pictures and too interesting facts. I'm impressed too, 2800 sunked ships... Russians lost terrible number of people during the war, 20.000.000. But our land history told neither about other battles including D-day, Perl Harbour, Italian campaign and battle for Atlantic. These facts came on a surfase lately, after the Soviet Union times.
  23. There were six of.
  24. Brocky, I'm shure I have never heard anything about Marmon-Herrington here in Russia. Read that tread with interest. I need to note the guy Sergey "Trucker" is Russian, that's why he discussed actively about the Red army. You can see the pictures of the rocket units. There is a book "Автонашествие на СССР" published in Russia just in 2011, lots of interesting pictures including those. In general Lend-Lease theme was not popularized during the Cold war time, many facts were lost. As for Lend-Lease vehicles, Russians must take the rest of them back to the States, and many of them got out. I was told the story and read it later also, that vehicles were collected in ports, special American comission revised them, requiering all accessories in place and paint Ok, next load them on boat and transport onto a big ship in a harbour. That big ship was equipped with press to make steel cubes of vehicles. Many were not taken back but sent into far regions for hard work and away from journalist cameras. So most people in Russia know only Jeep, Dodge,Studebaker and Harley-D. Because they came in greatest number. Vlad. ("Vlad" is the real name, short from "Vladislav" I have in my papers)
  25. Never mind, two last pictures looks realistic and have their charm
