Today was pretty good but yesterday afternoon sucked big time. Worked all day on a gas piping job and got home around 6:00pm. Had a office chair ordered at Staples and went to pick it up. Decided to drive the Isuzu Npr flat bed because I needed a couple things at Tractor Supply. Well about a mile from town, the vacunm, brake light and battery light came on than I heard a sonic boom and saw a big cloud in the rearview. Pulled off to side of the road and tilted cab up. Antifreeze everywhere and saw busted top radiator hose. After steam cooled down I cranked engine to see if it would crank. Noticed the alternator and fan not turning. Shut the engine down and found that the harmonic balancer had seperated. Called five wrecker services and no one wanted to come out. Had ball games, couldn't tow tilt cab and other bs. Pissed off called kin folk and took old hose to Autozone and got something close. Bought three gallons water at Foodlion .Went back to truck afroed hose and poured water in. Cranked up and drove about eight miles to service station. Stopped because truck started to heat again. Left overnight and went back today. Cranked up and got home. Ordered new harmonic balancer for $210.00. Now there are five towing services that will not ever get a call from me. OK I feel a lot better now. DH

My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant.
