Looks like it is knee deep in rubber! I plan to be in your part of the world in October, we have a little vacation planned. That is always a favorite of ours. This last bunch of A2s from Riley were really good trucks. Hopefully when you start looking around you will find all those Tooele Depot...
I bought that green W/W and the sand W/W the same day these four sold. You should have hit me harder on that green one, it is a nice truck. Needs an axle seal and I had to put in an alternator. It still has something funky on the winch PTO shifter adjustment, but I will get it there. It runs...
Always glad to do previews, we plan to be there again Monday for another M820 if I can get off. Shoot me a message with the numbers and I will check it out.
We rolled west on 70, south on 77 and west on Old 40. I ran right at 45, john tells me I was running 50. Guess I have a speedy deuce!
We...
I had fired up the second winch truck yesterday. It was full of oil, nice and clean oil. The radiator was down below the neck. I did not want to let it run long because I did not know how much coolant was in it. I could see that the bottom of the neck was still moist and there has been a leak at...
That driver was great to work with! He jumped right in and helped wherever he could. He drove the second deuce while Robert from GL directed me to the center of the trailer. He was loaded and out of the lot by 1330.
Unfortunately, the other driver was coming from Topeka and decided rather than...
Between Tuesday and Thursday, I got my 71 M35A2 W/W rolling and made its maiden highway voyage to assist loading four deuces.
The trucking company was originally going to be there at 0800. Then they decided they would be there by 1100. I rolled in at 1000 and waited until after 1200 for the...
That was me, if I would have only known where you were headed, I could have used the SS Express to get those tires to Nebraska. They belong to Reb87 north of York. I also have some bolster trailer parts and tires in there for him. Glen
The old deuce and I have been making smoke this week, burning up the Interstate between Salina and Riley, Old US 40 too...
Tuesday the 7th, I took my Labor Day Holiday to go help recover an A3 with Steve from Florida. That truck fired right up, fluids looked great, I thought anybody could have...
I saw you guys pulling out as I was pulling in. Do you remember the M35A2 W/W? All green... Anyway, I hope you got one of the Kansas Guard trucks that had the new engines in them. The cluster wires were rudely butchered. Did you look around the truck for the instruments? I found one set under an...
Not much sympathy here either. My grandfather was on vacation in Colorado, they had a flat tire. He had changed the tire and was stowing away the jack and flat tire. Some drunk fly boys slid into him, pinching him between the bumpers and severing both legs. The first vehicle to come along was a...
I had a no charging issue on one of my trucks. I went out and pulled an alternator off of a M813. The problem with my old one was pretty obvious, somebody had routed the small wire under the cover in the corner of the cover and the sharp edge vibrated through until the wire shorted. It burned...
Unfortunately, I have 27 years of practice, thinking for people in one state or another that are not capable of thinking for themselves.
I felt bad afterwards, I should have stuck around to see that the two intoxicated ones did not drive. Hopefully the park ranger that had showed up took care...
So when I called dispatch back, they told me that there was a truck stuck out at the lake on the Sandy Shore campground. The brother of one of the females involved is a good friend of mine, so I told her I would run out and pull him out. It is about 26 miles. My nephew wanted to go, so off we...
