Some nice iron!

It was fun to see the ladders wag the tail during the opening!

The stripes look Great!

Seems like you had a nice time shopping for a new bike...

Had a ton of holes in my B-75 but I think you still win the prize! 

Quite a few holes got used and a bunch got filled.

I will have to jot that down in my calendar book.  I was going to a truck show that day but it has been cancelled.  Hopefully, Covid will be under control by August....

I hear ya.  Not good to have the kitchen out of order!

Nice save on the Huskie 359!

Looks Nice!!  Good score on the dash panel.

Dang Bob!  You are awful cranky.  You need to get out of the house and go for a run!  

I would say the R looks real nice.  Have seen some large cars out there that look like a lot lizard wearing all sorts of cheap costume trinkets and crap.  I guess they need all the help they can get!

I went out to dinner with them later, we went to some place called Twin Peaks. That's me in the orange shirt, with the hostess at Twin Peaks. Zina from Florida asked her if she would take a picture with me and she said fine.

The name of the joint does a fine job representing the atmosphere!

Our local Mack dealer has tried to no avail.

That is very sad.

Best of luck bringing the dog back to life.  Post a pic of your Granite when you can.

Makes you wonder if the cab offset was a visibility thing or just neccesary because the engine was sitting in the drivers lap.

Both.  Mack's "Commandcab" had increase visibility and the drivers feet needed someplace to go since the cab was also pushed forward.  The use of offset cabs by Mack in certain applications goes back into the 1940's.

I heard somewhere that a lot were ordered without a passenger seat!

Right you are.  The code for the cab with rider seat was CA361 and CA362 was without rider seat.

Two brothers near me had a very well built Hein-Werner trans jack that dated to the late '60s or so.  They ran trucks and equipment out of their shop.  While one brother was cleaning a work bay, he had to make a quick dash to the restroom and the trans jack and some other tools were not yet put away.  The other brother brought a large CAT dozer into the shop and did not see around the blade that the trans jack was still there.  You guessed it, the dozer won and the trans jack was junk.

I believe an OTC replaced it but the brothers always had a "fight" blaming the other and who was at fault.

Is USPS hiring ex Swift drivers?

No cable because it is electronic.  There is a speed sensor on the transmission that sends a signal to the speedometer head.  Sensor could be broken, disconnected, broken wires, etc.

Someone pls help me out, i find it difficult to locate where the problem is mt speedometer is malfunction and i could not locate or where to find the cabe connection at the gear box

Going to need to know year, make and model of the truck.  What kind of transmission?

Details of what it is or isn't doing. 

No one here is a mind reader...

I thought in 72 they were still steel dash? Good lookin truck anyways, always liked the U’s.

That's right.  I knew the previous owner who had put a better cab on the truck and it was from a late 70's U model with the plastic dash.

Wonder if something might be "off" inside the drum.

It was a see through show trailer with a hot rod El Camino inside, I believe?  Looked for a picture but I can't find one.

Secondary verification of oil temp will be helpful.  Also, have you done an oil sample to see if there is fuel mixed in it?
