  1. Also pretty cool when you spread your old childhood memories on here and people are not bored to death ha ha… bob
  2. Hell, I completely missed this. I used to see a lot of them around the LA railroad and Harbor. We used to call them Joe dogs. They were quite common down there where you needed a third axle for heavy cans and raill trailers but didn’t have to be live for snow They’re actually a pretty good idea. If all you have is a single axle that way you can pull anything.
  3. Hardly anything has side signals there days I don’t know how DOT lets that slide I never thought that was very safe especially if you have to swing it without much warning to avoid an issue… bob
  4. 429 Ford engine C6 transmission ha ha best route… bob
  5. My wife used to run of pizza joint and Truckee, California a lot of times they would run out of supplies customers complaining my wife would tell them that’s because the highway patrol holds trucks and heavy snowstorms on donner pass and lets the cars go through so you were able to get here but not the supplies OK why are we not letting the trucks through and hold the cars?
  6. Frame up restoration big money when someone sells it years from now . Good decision since you’ve already gone this far why not… bob
  7. Ha ha I’m sure most of us would like to go over and give him a hand have it done in no time half a dozen guys drinking beer ha ha bob
  8. Main complaint if the sun is not shining around here I don’t feel like doing anything outside I heard that from an older fellow when I was working in the truck tire shop way back in 73 …. I don’t even know how I remember that he told me the same thing …. When the suns out I’m out working—-no sun I sit in the house pretty much what happened to me yesterday I had plans and I did nothing but watch TV I did run around a bit haircut hardware store supermarket
  9. Just barely out of summer and I’m already sick of winter beautiful photos Paul ,,,thanks bob
  10. Joey. I’m surprised this is the first we heard of them.. like wow man lol bob
  11. Wow that was excellent thanks
  12. I really don’t know anything about him frankly looks like a sleeze to me but you know if the left wings feel threatened they’re gonna pull that pedophile bullshit
  13. Frankly, I don’t think it’s worth the effort to do all that for a very little gain, but it’s your decision. You can’t really do much more than you already did to get at everything. But then again, if you do not pull it apart, you will be laying awake Knight thinking about it or at least I would be….. As far as you’re going with that truck, why not just go for it I know an entire paragraph and I pretty much said nothing to help ha ha good luck bud. Great progress. Let’s keep it up.
  14. I would get in touch with Peoplenet ELD and ask them
  15. You know I can’t say for sure but I don’t see why not I may be wrong. i’m thinking all you really need is an electric speedometer for the ELD to read. Good luck
  16. I think I was pretty much gonna add the same thing by the time you get done investing, lots of time and money to get these things where you want them it’s a lot easier just to buy something a little newer and yes, R model is a pretty perfect choice you could find something ready to work a lot of times 20 to 30,000 ready to go and accomplish what you need without running around the world looking for parts that are a lot of times way over priced and add shipping to that. Good luck whatever you choose…. Bob
  17. I do remember that was a hell of an engine back on the day was a pulling SOB …: bob
  18. Sure sounds like somebody got a hell of a deal. They’re probably not telling us the engine is stuck ha ha
  19. Excellent have a ball with it and welcome aboard… bob
  20. well,,,,if its anything like around here,,,,i have plenty to do,,,,fortunatley now i have plenty of time for mine,,,,, along with all her demands,lol,bob
  21. Man, you said it!!!!!!!!!
  22. No, I do not remember the ad
  23. OK, that’s funny. Shit I didn’t even really notice that I was wondering what they were all doing crawling around on the ground.
  24. same here TJ i believe they can do some real damage,,,but in 49 years of truck driving ive only seen them fly around the wheel opening and then pieces of cap come out the back,,,alotta times tear off the mudflap and sometimes the bracket ,bob
