Red Rover

Atta boy Ray Ray.

i remember Tower Lines out of Wheeling WV ran H-models in the 50's and 60's

I was in Weirton last weekend visiting family. I used to work at Weirton Steel.I'm glad to hear it going to a good home.

Beautiful wife , great looking Mack, I believe you're the luckiest guy in town Ray!

leaving in the AM from Duluth Ga. should arrive tomorrow evening. first time at Macungie also.

looks like the truck which will remain unnamed is working out Ray. Good luck.

Was that the Market Street bridge in Steubenville Ohio. Back in the 70s I learned to drive a B model with a quad box hauling coal out of the strip mines around the Rayland, Ohio area for Chic Provenzano in Follansbee WV. Used to be a lot of heavy truck traffic across that bridge. It was skinny and tight in a truck and the metal grate floor made it slick on a motorcycle. One day some one put up a sign on the west virginia side that said " Ohio closed today"

I'm on it.

Agree with MHFred, Safelite, Binswanger, or Pilkington Classics should have the glass. Post back if you need help.

Love the dixie mags.

I got mine at cvs. It was complete including drug screen , eye and hearing, blood sugar etc. Yes, big pita, wasted a day, under 100 bucks, then fax to state of ga. good for another year.

I was driving for Munson Transportation in 1990 and as I approached the GWB there was a fairly new Frieghtliner conventional with a reefer parked in a little pulloff just before the bridge. The left front tire was flat, it was the only wheel left on the tractor and trailer, also missing were the hood , the engine, the reefer unit and, of course ,the trailer was empty.

Check out the latest WOT. Guy put a big sleeper on a peterbilt and calls it an rv.

The Ford cabover was nicknamed "Two story Falcon"

That would look good behind an H model.

how about the trailer in the background with the windows. Looks interesting.

Cheer me up your video did Like seeing Santa when I was a kid.............................Watching you drive your pup that day...................................Gives me hope that I'll drive mine one day...................Thanks

The black B belongs to Randall Howell from Ballground Ga. We did the cab interior in red leather several years ago . Randall is a great guy and the details of his truck make it one of a kind.

I have two h-67's and one h-63 which is currently being made roadworthy. Out of all three I am still working diligently to come up with one running truck that is actually fit to drive. So I can understand Olivetroad getting so caught up in his H-67 that he forgot how to log on here. When he finally finds the nuts that hold the dog on the nose he will have reached a new level of awareness. If he's servicing the foot valve, it may be awhile.

H-63. Nicest original I've seen.

Happy Thanskgiving all!!!!

I think Olive has H-model fever. I know because I have a terminal case of it. Immersing yourself into the simplicity and complexity of H-Model mechanics can cause an intermittent rejection of modern technology. Olive will return shortly, I'm sure.

I can vouch for MHE9. I call him Mister Reliable.

One thing that hasn't changed in my whole adult life. The day after election day I still have to go to work.

I too, got my WV commercial license from a cracker jacks box in 1973 when it cost 15 bucks to acquire so I could haul coal in a B-model and 28 foot dump trailer. But in 89 when the prospect of a trucking job was all I had going for me, and without recent experience, a school was the only way I could get hired. I've always felt that from the safety aspect alone, the school was worth it. That's my 2 cents, and though I don't make my living driving a truck, I just renewed my CDL and hazmat this year and as another poster mentioned, it gives you confidence in other areas in your life and no matter what size vehicle i'm driving, I have credentials to prove that I am a professional, and with that said, I expect that when any of you see me on the road, you will respectfully get out of my way.
