  1. I do remember my pop telling me one of them got killed in World War II. The other one got killed in a truck accident there was six altogether. All of them gone now.
  2. Oh these guys were all long gone now I even met them. They were my dad‘s older brothers and my dad would be 107 if he was still here I think these guys are already gone from when I was very young cause I never even met any of them except for two brothers, the rest of them I think we’re already passed on.
  3. Definitely not too hard to look at
  4. This was all I could come up with from them …bob
  5. Yes, as you mentioned out here I can’t even remember the last time . I saw a 9000 or a road boss ,,,, closest I came was a restored auto car owned by King County truck lines at the alamo truck stop here in Reno about 20 years ago it had a fiberglass nose on it and it looked like a road boss but it said auto car on it
  6. That was very interesting. When my uncles started, they were telling me they didn’t even have any heaters, just side curtains, solid, rubber, and chain drives Used to have to drain radiators before coolant kerosene headlights
  7. My father-in-law told me along time ago he played for the san Diego padres way back in the 30s when they were minor team back then because we were asking why his name was on some of the bridges down there
  8. There’s all kinds of angles running through my head I got it about half done
  9. I was going to cut it all up, but I decided it was more successful to just unscrew all the pressboard and keep the frame square tubing hide it behind the garage for future projects…bob
  10. You know, I only put them up once in my life when I lived in California bought a brand new house, staple those around the roof doors windows that was the one and only time I ever did it too much work I’d rather just look at everybody else’s… bob

She was at the tree lighting this Christmas, doing a speech yelling into a microphone that wasn’t working the entire crowd was shouting at her hey Your microphone isn’t working numerous times and she just kept on talking ignoring everybody entire crowd was shaking their heads you gotta be kidding me ….. bob
  17. Was just curious what size engine was in there and what size is that one?
  18. Ha ha excellent I could use you over here for a week or so. I am sure you would work faster on my DM than I do. Great progress bud. Thanks for the update…. Bob
  19. Also, there’s another lost model I think I’ve only seen one in a picture past 40 years
  20. I have the same problem with a split rims. I’m just gonna do them myself. I was going to go to tubeless, but they’re so expensive. I’m just going to use what I got. And yes, that is quite a looker. You got there truck appears to be immaculate…. Bob
  21. This was just a tip of the iceberg. Amazon also has a lot of them rebuilt complete
  22. Wow missed this somehow that thing is gorgeous really good condition google search for a filter element and tubeless rims still available. They are not cheap as far as the brake booster. You’ll have to shop around again. Google search first brake booster rebuild. I’m sure somebody has parts for it out there. Good luck and thanks for the post…. Bob
  23. OK now that’s just hilarious. Somehow I missed this ha ha…. Bob
  24. I had the same problem dealerships did not carry the lines on a roll anymore. I wound up going to a hydraulic hose shop. They had everything in stock, but they had to order one of the lines took a month for them to finish them, mainly waiting on the one hose. Good luck believe it or not you can try Amazon. They carry a lot of the lines in stock…. Bob
