Love the truck but I keep looking at the ancient steel wheels beside the deuce so I must ask; What is 'Pumpkin' hanging out with? It looked like a grader but with the farm equipment I'm hoping it's a breaking plow, cool shots. I live in flat country but that is the flattest country I have ever...

A 20 year old truck sold for $41,000.00 and didn't go to scrap, that is MV passion.....congratulations to the winners, tried to knock them down a little and of course just real happy they didn't get crushed. Just the thought of seeing a fleet of these together at a rally in the future made my...

If I may, this is the story on the Mig 17. Not really low level flight, this pilot nearly buys the farm at the bottom of a loop. The tail strike occurred during at a 1990 airshow in Harrison, Arkansas. Photographer, who was a technician for the FAA and somewhat of a camera buff, was...

What a pain it would be to own one of those Humvees without being able to drive them to where you want to go. It'll be like having a big sand-rail you have to haul to get anywhere. What's the plan? You'll need to trailer them to the forest and have security where you stage your pulling vehicle...

I recently watched a sassy little video where a dude used Silica Crystals Cat Litter as a desiccant. Here's a similar link to drive ya nuts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQFq6Z1ACZ0 He used 2 socks, filled the first one with kitty litter, tied it off and bagged it in the second. Places them...

That is all good news. Thought I found that part number in a marine Yamaha but it's a goose chase so far. I knew we'd find one. The new pump I soaked in Trani Fluid took a beating while I watched our Oiler's lose another game. I just kept working it in and out from the taper to the bottom, left...

Are you going to put tracks on it? :lol: I think one sold for 25g at an auction in December 2012. That would be a Dodge I'd keep. I can't help you with the measurements for the frame rails but I'll poke around for TM's. I can already picture it finished, beside Zelda.

G749 accelerator pump Good thing it's in the carb, the boys would never forgive me getting pink on the trucks. The logic of 'soaking' something porous in oil to make it smaller, is just not there. It's softer so maybe crammin' it in the hole a few hundred times will shape it. A little tough...

So far, no sir. All the parts in the pics are a perfect match. Did someone Hot Rod your carb?

G749 Holley Carb Kit Found a minute before dinner and discovered a fork works as a screwdriver. With an adjustable wrench, tweezers, a fork and a coin.... a guy can take one apart before the roast is cooked. Like yours, the "Z" Tube YT 2285758 on my carb is different than the "Tube" supplied...

A Holley guru just told me to soak leather seals in auto transmission fluid for a few hours. I should have about 8 of these hiding in trucks and a few carb kits still on the shelf so I'll soak a new one and give up results right after the Oilers beat San Jose tonight.rofl I've got winch shaft...

I'm sure SuperDave grabbed that kit from Tower Park so probably not Canadian. I'll compare the rest soon, maybe even before next year. The original one is leather. For the new one, Pops wondered if an ice water soak, oven or heat register drying process and a soak in WD40 would remind the...

G749 Holley You know what they say, curiosity killed the carb. I have the same kit and decided to pull "R" Piston Assy' 7529161 out of a spare carb to compare. This is my first baby Holley so played with it while dismantling and found the old piston didn't move freely and the alignment...

M152 cdn That one is real nice. There is one over here and up a little on the map that's not in bad shape. and might net you some parts if you need them. A few others are buried in the bush and I'm sure they'd rather be used then rot. I know of a trailer with parts but don't know enough about...

I haven't seen one on a Canadian CDN truck so start slowly for me and give up a little history for the public record. Were these added just to manually control shifts or where there other benefits? A read from a transmission mentor...

Every person that drives a car should go on a ride along with an adventurer like yourself. Basic Peary survival adventure, Great story! Can you tell us how you got the background on your photos to blend like that. Makes the truck stand out and there are no distractions, beautiful pics and I...

Driver Training Only spent a few weeks driving California but it was great. Hammer down, good spacing situational awareness, great road system down from Palm Desert to San Diego and back to Yuma. BMW, grannie rally El central. I was always getting distracted driving in Cali so who's a...

I'm giving this a nudge for some feedback. Just spent 5 days/nights hauling an 8000 bobcat around and managing 5 tandems on ice-packed roads. I see the problem now. As drivers are texting they don't notice the speed limit signs or us coming up behind them at posted speeds. They may have been...

Straight pipes I'm looking at straight pipes for the In-line 6 M135. Is something like this over-kill?

Is that what you're taking on the next Alaska trip? I just stared at it for way to long, it's so beautiful. Imron you say, should be good for 50 years, so very nice. Really looking forward to some pictures in the sun once you're finished,...and the sun comes out again, wow still staring. Hope...
