    Gray hair, we used to live in Lauderdale Lakes, remember pier 66! There was another tourist trap in Ft Lauderdale That I can't remember, paid 2.00  for a beer in 1970! Big money!  Got it! The Castaways! Ever been there? My favorite bar is Quaker Steak and Ale in Sharon Pa is on the Cuyahoga River in an old gas station.They have a race car hanging on the wall! The bar rail is made of driveshafts welded together I'll bet Freightrain has been there,right over the Ohio line, good wings!

    The name is Quaker Steak and Lube in Sharon, PA and it is on the Shenango River. It is located in a former Quaker State gas station and is a very unique bar/restaurant well known for their wings. They franchised locations in several states.  They recently went bankrupt and were bought by TA, yes the truck stop company.

  2. When I bought my 1958 B 6, I also bought an original Mack rebuild kit for the engine in this truck, END 673.  I have recently sold the truck and do no need this rebuild kit.  It includes pistons, rods, liners, rings and bearings all in boxes and labeled.  I will be glad to take pics and sent to anyone interested.  I plan on going to Macungie and can take with me if sold.

  3. Having spent my entire working career in funeral  service, with the last 20 plus years owning my own funeral home, I have experienced several deaths due to improper support of a vehicle while being under it.  Also, included in this is not properly supporting a dump bed while working on it.  

    A friend of mine was killed when his bus came down on him. He was leaving for vacation and decided to check something under the bus while waiting for his wife.  The bus was running and his dog was inside the bus.  He crawled partially under the bus and his dog started running around trying to find him and hit the dump valve for the air. The bus came down on him and was found when his wife came out to leave for their trip.

    We can't be too careful when working on equipment.  

  4. RVING is a great lifestyle. I been doing it since 1992.  My choice was motorhome rather than a 5th wheel or any pull behind. That is me I'm not condemming the non motorhome lifestyle.  Anything to get out an see this great country and spend time with family is fantastic. I can sit for hours and talk travel adentures with you.  For example, we were visiting our daughter and her family for an evening while enroute to another destination.  We were parked in a walmart and our grandson in second grade spent the night with us. Our daughter picked him up the next morning and took him to school. He was telling everyone he spent the night in a Walmart parking lot but neglected to tell he was with us and in our motorhome.  Wasn't too long before our daughter got a phone call from a school official wanting an explaination.  

     

    Which ever route you go research it thoroughly and sit back and enjoy the lifestyle.  Contact me if I can be of any help.
