  2. I am still having priming issues, but I start it every Thursday just to keep everything moving
  3. Excellent and yes, my air starter tank came from an old Viking Freight T 100
  4. Oh, for you guys that didn’t know this Viking turned into Fedex and joined American freight ways to form a national carrier by the time I started, it was already Fedex Freight
  5. I don’t even know if anybody heard if that air starter is going to fit Larry‘s new bell housing And yes, Conway roadway, CF, Viking and US mail all had them around here a few years ago when I went to work for Fedex, they still had a lot of them, but they were mostly downgraded to city work
  6. OK now that’s just funny
  7. It sounds like a case of things that make you go hmm lol
  8. Out here is probably 10 to 12 years last time. I heard one out on the road I was chaining up on donner pass and I heard one fire up. I don’t know who it was and it was a few trucks down… around here. US mail was the last company I know of using them, but they did not do roadwork and they wouldn’t have been on Donner pass so I don’t know who it was.
  9. I think they used to call those top loads … I bought a cheap truck stop 4 ft along time ago and people could hear me all over the place with that thing… used it around 6 years … until I retired…. Bob
  10. Right on man !!!!!!!! Best wishes babba… I think your catching up to us happy birthday.. bob
  11. Come to think of it,, it has been recently I have noticed thier products here … but not milk,,,, cottage cheese and some other stuff

  13. i remenber when i was very young maybe 6-10 someone had something that used to screw with our TV occasionally,,,,im sure it was probably a ham radio broadcasting in my area,,,,that used to be a thing back when,,,,pretty common practice for lotsa folks,,bob
  14. Yes, it is. Sad truck stops pretty much the same shit these days Larry nobody even looks at you when you walk through there nobody talks anymore and yes, I also had a realistic 23 side band. I forgot all about that thing. It was many many years ago.
  15. oh theres a surprise,,,,you know these days we never even here anything about UFOs,,versus a few years back
  16. It’s no wonder these officials get all up in arms when they want to investigate their voting system. Well, if you’ve got nothing to hide why are you all pissed off? You should be boasting come on in babba Check it out …. lol yeah right…. Bob
  17. Nothing surprises me and don’t forget we have no majority vote. That’s all out the window.
  18. You know, I think a good part of the United States is corrupt just never been investigated cities towns, politicians, grabbing, and pocketing all the money scams everywhere. I heard a few years ago that the town of Sacramento California is broke. Never hear anything about it of course not it’s all covered up. How many more or like that? I really think this place is no different. Millions of dollars pouring into this town and where short of police firefighters teachers doctors ridiculous and yes, they’re short cause they don’t wanna pay anybody
  19. Excellent thanks for that… bob
  20. i have been digging for west lynn creamery trucks ,,,nothing they were gorgeous ,,,,nothing fancy,,,simple R models polished tanks,,,i almost worked for them,same thing with JR Sousa and sons,cant find old photos,bob
  21. chicks can be a real pain in the ass,,,as far as bucket list,,,,,,i dont think i have one now,,,,bob
  22. Well, I had a few things on there that are probably not gonna happen. Pensacola dragstrip was one of them, but it is now closed but finishing that DM and driving it out of here would be one of them for sure.
  23. And yes, TJ I did change the subject a bit all the same. I would like to drive that thing hell after little while I might not even wanna get out of it.
  24. That’s interesting that you mentioned that because my family started with horses and a wagon but later on they were telling me about side curtains and no heat and most of them were boozers ha ha and draining the radiators at night oil lamps for headlights. OK now I’m going way back.
  25. Speaking of the old days that old buddy of mine just messaged me a little while ago from ESTES I used to run with. He was pretty good at keeping in touch
