לך נסדר אחת כזאת: או כזאת: או משהו יותר צנוע... כולן מכאן: T

Good luck - it is really a (very) rare truck which deserves to be saved. Do you intend to restore it? All the best, T

Something for the eyes, from the ATHS meeting in Pleasantown, California which is taking place this weekend - some people are already there. Lots of trucks, some we know in Israel some not... Diamond Reo - yes, the same cabine as on the Autocar, Diamond Reo was also owned by White Autocar, West Coast style and a Peterbilt like an Autocar Rest of the pictures here: http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk30/kidnv/Pleasanron2010/DSCF0093800x600.jpg T

A Volvo 485 with a free-flow exhaust sounds nice also:-) T

Until then, http://www.youtube.com/user/longroadpro#p/u/17/x__hGsz4HG4 and http://www.youtube.com/user/longroadpro#p/u/16/Qnn2Kc0Rfcw more very interesting videos of restored old trucks on his channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/longroadpro Unbelievable, the sound of the supercharged Cummins NHRS on the International - there was one Autocar with such an engine - I think - under an experiment by Mifalei Tovalah in the 1950s... T

שלום לך רוני, איזו הפתעה אתה מכין לי הפעם - אל תגיד לי שהוא עוד קיים!? טוב, התרגלתי בינתיים להתישב וגם לא ללגום קפה מול המחשב לפני שאני קורא את ההודעות שלך... כל מה שחסר עכשיו הוא שתמצא בופלו או מפלצת איפהשהו בתודה מראש, גיא

למשפחת קדמיאל תנחומים - בתקווה שלא תדעו עוד צער. T/גיא

I left you for 5 minutes and there are 3 extra pages. Is this one also mentioned here? T PS: Genady, I think the KW you took a picture of is a T800H with a high cpacity radiator

Zeev, the site I mentioned is the American Truck Historical Society's forum, they have a technical questions forum here: http://forums.aths.org/InstantForum414/Forum14-1.aspx if you go through the pages, you will see how people are trying to help each other and there are a couple of members who have worked on Cummins/Fuller/Rockwell for years and really know what they talk about. From my experience someone will have an answer to your questions Also useful is the "Parts and Services" page: http://forums.aths.org/Instantforum414/Forum15.aspx - lots of places where you can get what you need directly. Joining the forum is free, yes, you need to know English but not a professor's English, the people on the forum are "normal" everyday people, many are old truck drivers and nobody expects you to be perfect with you English... T PS: The last picture is from http://147.237.72.31/topsrch/default.htm

סליחה, התכוונתי לאמר "עוד תמונה של המשאית שלו"...

Zeev, another one (from the National Photos Archive - in the Gaza gate)...T

Spare parts you can find in the US - I post on the ATHS forum and there's no problem on Cummins 400s for example, also Fuller has everything and lots of used parts if you need them. Best regards, T

Zeev, just for information, there's a recent pic of the drill rig Freightliner (taken by Idan Gonen from Netivim and puiblished on the Kenworth forum first). Bigger pic here http://i.start.co.il/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Discussions.Components.Files/417/6281._EA05DE05D505E005D405_-007.jpg This used to be Grar Azur's before, here's a pic from their site from when they had it All the best, T

Slight diversion - anybody in the US in the next few months, check this clendar: http://forums.aths.org/InstantForum414/Calendar.aspx For pics of past shows, see here: http://forums.aths.org/Instantforum414/Forum34.aspx Quality, as one would expect in the US, is amazing (no 8X4 Freightliners though:lol:) T Examples

זאב, אני מקווה ומאחל לך שתמצא את המשאית - ואולי אפילו תציל אותה מהמפלצת הסינית ימח שמה וזכרה שאוכלת את כל הברזל. כמו שאתה יודע, אין בישראל מעמד של משאית אספנות וכל מה שלא עבר טסט יותר משנתיים מורד מהכביש. הפריטלינר הזו בעלת ערך הסטורי וגם מכני ושווה שימור... T

זאב, מצאתי את התמונה הזו (זכויות יוצרים לישראל!) - האם בכך מדובר? היכן ומתי, רק לישראל פתרונים - אני מאחל לך שתמצא אותה. ה8X4 האלו כמדומני היו הזמנה ישראלית מיוחדת - אפילו בארה"ב לא תמצא הרבה בתצורה הזו (אם בכלל).... בברכה, T

So the only one left to get is the real thing.... Only joking - Corvairs are cool and it would be nice to see one in israel. Is it a turbo by any chance? T

אבי, שווה עיון: http://www.sweptline.org/forums/index.php?sid=80f582a65b45a5ce51453e52535c3623 http://www.slantsix.org/ T

This may be interesting: http://www.angelfire.com/nb2/jeeppickups/index.html Good luck with the restoration, T

The one I mentioned had rusty rear arches which I replaced in 2004 with repair arches (that is, cut the old arch and wels a new one in) - nothing else. Since that time it was always in a garage and not driven in the winter, in case you ask. I will try and get some pics in the weekend.T

Zeev, welcome to the forum - sorry about the English, I'm abroad and my Hebrew computer is at home - I'm sure Srulik has a picture of this truck somewhere connected to a dumper trailer (heiber), if you wait he will probably post it... All the best, T

Thanks - was helpful already. T
