yep, we're all still here, some of us just extremely busy as usual.

Oh yeah, gotta keep the things lubed up! I hate a squeaky door! Just don't slam them shut too hard!

???????????? Did I miss something?

The most desirable temperature to properly combust diesel fuel is around 650 degrees. At idle you might be running around 200-300 degrees, not quite enough to properly burn the fuel. What happens is called "wet stacking" and if done often enough can cause damage. If you have to leave it running...

I've always just used that foam with the adhesive on one side from Home Depot.

Wow, now that's a rare one! Thanks for sharing the pictures!!!!!

Gotta love trees. The neighbors can't even see my vehicles. Heck, I can't see them from the house.

Lance, you have bio-diesel available up there, it's at one of those membership/cardlock type fuel stations. I'll ask my buddy up there where it was.

Closest I can think of would be a pic at Jack Tomlin's in Toole, Utah <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"><img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve">but I know that's not what ya meant<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve">

Just picked up a few more M35s and need a couple soft tops, anyone got any leads on some cheap ones? don't care if they are new, used, canvas or vinyl as long as they are in good shape.

One other thing, you might also want to check the CA DMV site and go through the motor vehicle code under citations for driving out of classification. They don't simply give you a ticket. They park your truck until someone who has proper classification can come pick it up. Not trying to start...

Sorry, but the Historic Plates do not have any loophole (other than not being required to stop at the scales.)It's all written in plain English for all to read www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/comlhdbk/comlhdbk.pdfPage 2 of the motor vehicle handbook clearly states that a Class C (everyday joe type of...

Hey Joe, welcome to the site. It's good to have folks like you around!

I had the opportunity to buy a beautiful 10 ton tractor that was just cherry, except for the fan belt that broke, wrapped around the fan blade bending it which tore up the radiator. Included with it was the parts to fix it, as well as a five ton wrecker bed complete. The guy was dying and needed...

Cons on the dropside, that tailgate is heavy!!!!!!! I'm a big guy, but that tailgate weighs a ton more than the standard fixed side.

Using a brake on the pinion gives you 26:1 more stopping power, the reason they used to be used on the monster trucks before they started using the ZF axles. Never heard about them causing pinion bearing failure, but, our axles got tore down so often they never had a chance to get hurt. I could...

I wish, spare time has been pretty limited lately.

I have some of the yellow lights for one of my projects. My understanding is they were made for use in Europe. They are older lights with the metal waterproof connectors on them. They're pretty hard to find. A guy offered me $50 a piece for them once!

36 degrees here and I'm whining. I HATE COLD..guess working outside in Colorado 7 days a week for 6 years had something to do with that. I remember pouring concrete 17 below one time, way too cold but the contractor wanted it done so we made him sign a waiver. Got paid to remove and replace it...

In CA, any peace officer can verify your VIN. Register it with Historic Vehicle plates and you don't need to get the weight verified. You DO need a class B license, no way around that one.
