    My deuce, Blue...GOT PAINTED!!!

    Robert, Nah, try a BP of 207/139 and passing out in front of the local clinic walking back home with groceries four blocks down the street from me. Big time oops. I was in the clinic for about nine hours while they were trying to gain control of my bp. That's when they gave me some nitro as a...

    My deuce, Blue...GOT PAINTED!!!

    Robert, I see you broke her in well, going for more "forgiveness"? P.S. Once I come back from Houston (17th) I'll send the stuff. I've been in and out of the hospital this week. It put a stop to all my plans this week including shipping a BUNCH of stuff.

    Seat Belt Question

    Mci, Sounds like you need to shrink then........ But seriously, I've driven many semis where the three point was installed and they used a roller type adjuster toward the top of the cab on some or and extension type roller level with the low back seat on others. The belt itself is really long...

    Seat Belt Question

    The non-collapeable steering shaft is a consideration. However, like Kenny, Nick loves to ride with Daddy! When he outgrows the child safety seat there will be modifications done for his safety.

    Opie, Just get one from a salvage semi. They will fit with some adaptions. I'm working on it too.

    My deuce, Blue...GOT PAINTED!!!

    SG, I hear your pain man! With me you're preaching to the bass in back of the altos. I'll be prayin' for ya! Chin up. After my disaster I found the one who inspired me to be here with this forum and is backing up my biggest dreams. Have faith that something much better is in store for you. I...

    Rockwell axle wheel studs and lugnuts?

    Y'all got it right. Back when I was a wee youngin' my granpa told me of the days before the manufacturers figured out right and left hand threads on wheels and tires. He remembers when he used oil based house paint as a thread locker on the woods trucks in northern Maine to help keep the nuts...

    The latest project

    Bill, It's a wonder when they dropped off that creampuff they didn't bust you for stealing it! That's awesome! I have to agree with Kenny though, that CAT needs to be repainted. Looks like she just came from the dealer lot. Nice going. Oh, BTW, I'm in need of borrowing a front-end loader...

    Just curious - daily drivers?

    Paul, Send me a message to my company e-mail, jordgovsurplus@yahoo.com and I'll get connected with you. For some unknown reason I'm having difficulties with your address. Sometimes computers are just overgrown paperweights. Kenny, Yep, I sure did. I was about three weeks too late with $2500...

    BODY-CARGO PIPELINE CONSTRUCTION

    Kenny, I thought Florida was a swamp... only a drained one... with Disney as the main attraction..... y'know..... a tourist swamp...... just kidding. My uncle has a nice winter house in Chuliotta next door to Disney. Granpa got it during the Depression as payment for some repair work he...

    Anyone bidding on GL stuff in Colorado?

    Dang, 6K for a stripped truck in obvious need of LOTS of TLC! Rancher's is definitely smokin' something a bit wacky over there. No way I'd even consider that thing......

    BODY-CARGO PIPELINE CONSTRUCTION

    Kenny, I got the plates today for both the M720 and the M197A1. Both have #12,000 tags in sequentail order (I'm trying to make the police a bit suspicious). I'll post pics after the rain lets up on Monday. We're gonna get soaked over the next few days.

    deuce auction results, for me.

    GL is a for profit only corporation without regard for the DRMOs. They do not share any profit with Uncle Sam except in levied taxes. All the stuff I have GL paid less than .01 pennies on the dollar for and magnified that by ghost bidding and such. I'm just waiting for something to happen...

    Just curious - daily drivers?

    Paul, "PM me" means send me a private message. Just click on the Private Message button on the upper left on the screen and type up a message about the prices on the 4F6s. I'm curious about your asking prices and shipping. I think I can find a shipper but I need to know what overseas lines...
