  1. I might have the number? I will look. Last I knew, it will be all for naught. Alcoa didn't get enough interest for the retro 5 hand hole wheel and discontinued production.
  2. RH, it is clear the information posted does not fit the narrative of the NAACP.
  3. If I am reading the chart correctly, it shows .77 for high and 12.77 for low range first gear with a TRDX-150.
  4. When will there be a honest discussion of the epidemic of black on black violence? Guess it doesn't sell as well on CNN or the NY Times.
  5. There never should be boob discrimination.
  6. An EQ usually has some heavier suspension and many times seem to be built as tractors. EE, EF and EH had lighter suspension and usually straight trucks. There are other models such as EM, EJ, ET..... Getting the VIN and running it through the museum will tell how it was built. Could have had some alteration in specs over 75 years. The EQ model was built between 1937-1950 with 10,661 units constructed. For comparison, over 13,000 EF's were built and 31,000 EH's produced. Only 50 ETX's got ordered. Parts depend. Some are easy to get and some are very difficult. Same as any project unless it is a Camaro or Mustang!
  7. That would have been an available combination. Example RD767 Cummins 350. CAT and Detroits were also available in late 70's RD700 models
  8. Most good shops will have hose and fittings in stock with an in house crimping machine. Bring the old hose and your pictures so they can see what is going on. There is a construction difference between a pressure and suction line.
  9. Once proud warrior now in the brush. The B-63 was available between 1954-1958 with 2,028 unit produced.
  10. A couple pictures might help identify it. Marmon-Herrington and Coleman both did conversions. May be a home brew?
  11. That will look great at your house! There was a sod farm about an hour from here that had a crawler forklift years ago. Don't recall the brand. The maneuverability and speed of pneumatic float tire forklifts made it obsolete.
  12. Might need to install a warning beacon for low flying aircraft!
  13. Shown at Barrington in 1999. Don't see too many B models done in brown paint.
  14. Holy Cow! That is Wild! NZ Stonehenge? Go ahead. Put that in your crusher! 😃
  15. Boy, the C model tanker looks like a beast!
  16. Nice! Always good to keep life interesting!
  17. Most Amish, I have seen, lead fairly strict lives. Mennonites dress in a similar way and have many of the same religious teachings but they have and drive cars and such. Talked to a Mennonite fellow back in 1978 in the Lancaster, PA area and he drove a Benz and had a fleet of Peterbilt's trucking petroleum products. Should have asked him why he wasn't running Mack equipment considering that Allentown was just down the road?
  18. And there is even fresh white paint on the wheels and hubs!
  19. Don't forget the Tawana Brawley case in 1987 that tore apart NY and help give raise to "Rev" Al Sharpton. She claimed rape by white guys and it turned out to be fake. With this most recent event, who was protecting the cop if he is a problem? Police admin or the police union?
  20. Clean and green heavy tractor. Picture is from 20 years ago or so.
  21. Sorry, I don't have the info for the salmon red paint Mack used. I have seen some engines painted with Rustoleum Victory Red or Dupli-Color DE1607 which is the Chevrolet red-orange which is different than Chevy orange. Neither are a good match.
