  1. Going across Rt6 today and had a Swift truck pull right out in front of me. Had to jump on the brakes to keep from pushing him down the road. Went a couple miles and he comes to a stop, no lights on, no brake lights just stops. I waited a minute and then went around him, looked over and he was just sitting there. And you wonder why they get a bad name
  2. I'm back with Ward now and they told us today we're getting cameras. I think I might have sold my Superliner to soon. I don't need someone watching everything I do. I could see it if you were hitting things all the time.

    Didn't it go to Weirton W. Va. I was running through there when you sold it and thought maybe I would see it but never did. I could be wrong though, I usually am
  4. Thought that's what it meant wasn't sure. Thanks
  5. I know I'm not to bright but what is angle tightening?
  6. Between Allentown and Philly
  7. Just wondering if you knew anything about the truck accident on the ramp of I77 last Thursday. He had a load of slit coils on and they ended up in the back of his bunk. I was just curious what happened.

      I was caught in that mess.  I was only 1\2 mile behind it on my way home.  I was going to run through town but jumped on it 30 and north 77.  We were parked for about 20 minutes before they started to let traffic around on left berm.

      Didn't realize what had happened until I got right up on it. I was in far left lane and all the trucks blocked my view.  Everyone played nice and merged together to get around.  They had blocked 62 East ramp so there must have been something on that ramp also??

      I saw a med duty sized service truck diagonal in front of steel truck and I saw whatever was on trailer was into the rear of the bunk.  I tried to snap a picture but I'm not as handy as Otherdog and I missed it.  I wasn't going to hold up traffic and get the shot.

      I've been curious about the accident but haven't read/seen anything about it myself.

      We're you passing through?

      The wife and I were on a little day trip and we're coming north and came to a stop just south of 30. I was in the left lane or I would have jumped on 30. They had the truck on berm of the off ramp when we went by. She said it looked like the front of the truck was crunched so I figured he probably rear ended someone on the ramp. Thanks for the reply just curious if you new anything

      I searched online and no news reports.  Definitely someone changed lanes snd the two trucks got tangled at least.  I wondered since 62 was closed if there wasn't a vehicle over that embankment that I couldn't see?

  8. Yep same one I got from you.
  9. Don't know why but I have pictures going every which way
  10. Got the headlights, turn signals, and horn wired. 2 new steer tires and a quick polish job on front wheels.
  11. Post away and I wouldn't worry out the flack
  12. looks like the oil filter i had on a 52 willys jeep
  13. © craigslist - Map data © OpenStreetMap (google map) Rebuilt Mack 350 engine with 7000 miles on it, 9 speed Fuller trans, I believe 38,000 rears on camelback. New rear cab panel due to old one being cut down for sleeper, new roof and cowl panels due to very small amount of rust could have been repaired but I wanted it replaced. Dash has been recovered in leather and wood grain with whiteface gauges. Custom made overhead console with stereo, speakers and CB to replace factory plastic one. All of interior has been dynamated. New Alumitank fuel tanks. Have an aluminum wet line tank that can go with it. New y pipe and straight pipes with integrated mufflers. 4 new batteries. New brake lining, seals, brake chambers, and slack adjusters. 6 polished aluminum wheels. New grill denser. New windshields and rubbers for all glass. New air horns and cab lights. Currently working on running new wiring for headlights and turn signals when I have time. I planned on having new door panels, headliner and back panel made but can't find someone that will come to garage to do it and I'm not putting plates and insurance on it just for that. When I started this I tried doing everything right because I planned on working it and didn't want anything giving me problems but things have changed and I don't need it and don't like having it sitting around.$30,000 Price is firm I have way more in it plus a lot of time. show contact info
  14. I have this 83 for sale that I would have to have 30,000 for. I have done a lot to it and have around 40,000 in it. Everything cost money and I've never got out of them what I put in and that doesn't count my time.
  15. You could check with Kennedys near Slippery Rock. Haven't been in there in awhile but they used to get a lot of fleet stuff in. I know they used to have a lot of ABF.
  16. This one doesn't go off when your over the speed limit but the new International we got does. I guess I lucked out on that. I wish they had aluminum wheels at least on the front. I saw one of Pitt Ohios with that bright red and alum wheels all around it was pretty sharp.
