Apm215 ! Your Avatar! Tractor trailer from my favorite movie : DUEL Love to hear that diesel going thru the gears chasing Dennis Weaver in his little Duster. :driver:

A friend of mine died back in '75 and his fam offered me his '63 Vette for 2000. I had just bought my first house and was engaged and just started my own masonry business. I was broke. I still think about that car. My future wife was more important, and still is.

Thanks Tim, I am going to get some pictures on Wednesday when I start loading dirt and moving it around. I promise to be smiling...... :mrgreen:

I think you need to come over to my place and do some work.

.I am the proud owner of a pencil with an eraser on both ends.Whenever something like that happens to me, and the wife says"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" I reply: Oh, calm down , I meant to do that. Sometimes if I am lucky she believes me. 8)

Saw two deucues at a large shop after crossing the river into Maryland, I think, the town was Nitro, according to the exit sign. Pardon my typing skills.This place was off I 68 going into western Maryland.

Your shop looks too clean. I 'm jealous. Seriously , it looks great. And every time I see that avatar I smile. They either have thier favorite tunes on or they are on a bumpy road. :D

Was on vacation for a week. Got back and caught up on things and then this morning went back to work on the M51A2 dump. Replaced the pistons. Tough job with limited equipment. Very heavy. The problem was the bent pistons. My wife saw me overjoyed for a change! This truck has been waiting for her...

I have a 5 ton dumper.

I agree with most of you. If a fuel tank is leaking in one spot, chances are there are many other spots ready to come thru. Get a good tank. Both of them. Spilled fuel does alot of damage. No brakes maybe fatal. I dont think you would want to drive with worry either.That takes the fun out of it.

If you can remove the tank it would be easier to see and work on. If it broke off it is probalbly corroded on the threads. Soak it in p.b. blaster penetrating oil and then get a set of "E.Zee " outs and try that. It doesnt always work. The threads may get scraped. You could always buy a used...

Now thats a huge log loader! Yes you made points on that one! And I would bet you were feeling a heavy weight behind you. I wouldnt be surprised if that was alot heavier than the duece. :driver: So is that what its like when things go well? I am still waiting..........................for things...

Trade you my duece for your dump. It will save you a lot of heavy work! My add is in the classifieds with pics. Mine is in better shape. Just needs some minor t.l.c. Seriously. 8) :) Its on the avatar on your left! Pa.Rich.Firewood not included. :wink:

P.m. sent to you.

Mike , that looks like a great project . Do you still have the other one?I was surprised at how good the fenders look too. Now to get rid of all the mice and bees nests. Have fun with it.Regards, Rich.

O.K. now the dumb question! How on earth do you remove a freeze plug. You cant get behind it, so how?I will be the sacrificial lamb and ask the dumb questions. :oops:

We went 17 miles with a large partially finished milkshake on the rear step bumper on rt. 81. people behind me must of been laughing!

On mine I had to bleed the M.C. and then they worked fine. It had gone low and when I refilled it there was no pedal, after bleeding just the m.c. it works good.

Making progress, I am done with the removal of the bad cylinders. Here are some pics of them.I will be going over to Am Generals house to pick up the good ones as soon as he is free.Four hours each way!
