    I make more money than my truck driving father but I still have it all spent by the end of the month. The old truck hobby is pretty good at burning through it.

    Congratulations. Persistence pays off sometimes. It looks great. The dual spot lights are neat. Does it have a bell on the right side too? Are you going to restore it or just get it mechanically sound and run it? If you are not involved in Schuylkill Historical Fire Society you should reach out to them. Mike.

    It's a rewarding job most of the time. He has a lot of time to make up his mind. Curiosity will help him to succeed in any profession though. Mike.

    My mechanic bought 6 new pistons for EN540 in my Father's B66 from them. They cost $1000 but they were the only decent pistons we could find after a year of looking. Mike.

    Very nice truck. Welcome to the forum. There are plenty of answers here. Just not from me. Mike

    Tom said it was a good truck with nothing wrong with it and I believe him. I would have liked it but spent all my money last year on the house and junk Internationals. Have fun with it. Mike.

    Nice truck. I can't believe it took so long to sell. The price was right. I have seen a lot less for way more. I like the Malatesta trucks too. Mike.

    I'm not a truck driver but drove on of those articulating dump trucks at a landfill two summers. I laid the bed over like that when I got the right rear tires off the road. It stopped me dead. It didn't do any damage except tearing a couple wire. They set it back up with an excavator and I was back on my way. Apparently it is common because they called it 'joining the club'. Mike.

    I was told it was Volvo automobile and not Volvo Truck.

    The poster had not been on since March so he probably won't see this. I don't have an answer for his question but the ENDT864 was available in the R719. A member, Dan Thomas, has one. It was also available in the CF719 which they made 12 of. I have #9. I believe it was also available in other models but do not have the documentation in front of me. I am pretty certain that any truck with the 19 suffix had the ENDT864. The 12 should be for 300 plus, unless it is a newer truck then it stands for tandem axle. I'm not an expert though. Mike.

    Thanks for the info. I called them today. They have one on the shelf, but will rebuild mine for about $200. I am checking on a couple other options but will send it to him if they do not come through. Mike.

    Thanks for the number. I'll give them a call tomorrow. Cal Little said he'd look through his stuff but doubted he had one and doesn't know anyone who rebuilds them. Mike.

    This coil looks like a little grenade. My mechanic replaced it with a finned coil like I have on my LS85. Me said the original coil was barely making a spark. I assume my mechanic would know if it is open or not. I do not know what that means. Matt Pfahl said they will cut open the old coils and put a new one inside but mine is not the same shape. Gary Mahan had no suggestion. I'll call Cal next Thanks for the reply. Mike.

    The coil for my 1925 AC fire truck has gone bad. I can't immagine there is a spare around. It says North East Electric Co Rochester NY. With a patent date of 1919. So with that not being likely has anyone ever had a coil rewound? Who would do it? My local generator shop doesn't. Matt Pfahl and Gary Mahan had no suggestions. Thanks. Mike.

    That is quite a project. Someone posted a sleeper cab L mode in similar condition in the U.K. a few years back. It had remnants of yellow paint. I think he became overwhelmed by the scope of the project. I wonder if this is the same truck. Good luck with it. Mike.

    This bumper looks just like the bumper I posted. Square fog light holes and all. It looks nice in the pictures.
  19. yarnall
    There are plenty of people on here who know a lot more about Superliners than I do. Post you questions in the Antique section above and you will get your answer. It won't let me post the bumper photos either but it looks nice. The must be too large for the format. Mike.

    $400 doesn't sound bad. I was very happy with $260. If you email them to me I will post them. yarnallvmd@hotmail.com. Mike.
  21. yarnall
    I did but I would like one without fog light holes. This one will do if I don't find one. Mike.
  22. yarnall
    There was just an NOS chrome plated steel bumper with fog light holes on ebay for $265. It was labeled as an MH bumper. If you are in that ballpark I'll take it. Mike.

    I bought it for my B62 tow truck. Thanks for posting it. Mike

    I spoke with Art Cooper about putting starters on old Macks. He uses a Mack ring gear, Delco MT40 starter and cuts the bell housing. He was selling parts to do this, but sold everything to Gary Mahan. You might be able to get the parts from Gary. Art would be happy to speak to you about this. I can message you his number if you want it. Mike

    My father used Admiral Merchants to have his RL712 shipped from CA to PA and was very happy. Mike.
