I posted pictures a while back, I had to work out some details and find some time but I got it home this morning. Now to find time to work on it.

I think I remember your picture. Back when the tanks were really "saddle" tanks. Are you going to put a screamin' "Jimmy" in it?

I said, "Hmmm, I do believe I have seen a photo of that truck before!" Glad to see you got things worked out and got it home.

I remember the 1st time you showed the old hammer. So glad you got it home. I drove an old screamer like that back in the late 50's when I first got a class a license. I pulled a dump trailer with it. We hauled salt all winter out of South Lansing NY and worked hauling rock all summer. The one I drove had a 4 cylinder Detroit in it. It would make a lot of noise but couldn't pull @#$%. I went from that thing to a brand new B61 Mack thought I was king of the hill. How I would love to see your old screamer just for old times. I wonder when we were better off ?? With that kind of equipment we had then or the stuff I retired off in 2007 ?
