Very odd...subscribing.

I like my glowshift 7 color set to red with black face, looks almost stock.

I normally run pump diesel. How much oil should I be adding for lubrication? Thanks

I just got offered a bunch of new cooking oil. Would it require special seals in the fuel system/IP?

There's one in the trucking yard next to my shop, as well as a compressor truck. They've been donated to the Patton Museum at Chiriaco Summit, CA, but still need transported there.

I'll catch you guys next year, things ain't workin' out.

The way to own a deuce is to have the knowledge and facilities/other trucks to repair and move them yourself...or buddies with them. ;-) If you have those, you're good to go, if you don't, it can be expensive. I see guys who store their XXX miles away and have to pay others to store/move/work...

They are no less reliable than anything their age. All about maintenance.

Wow. Subscribing
