Plymouthy Adams Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 (edited) locally he would have paid that for just the two thumpers in my neck of the woods...at the flea market..they were asking 14.00 a pop...why did you not find a left hand lathe tool holder in size 1 from JH Williams, Craftsman or South Bend..

pflaming Posted July 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Dave I agree and Tim is right also. Tools I can use: valve spring compressor, feeler gauges, oil cans, screw and nut drivers, pliers are good, always need open end wrenches, mine are all charred, tube cutter, adjustable wrenches, calipers, mini grease gun, etc., even if I break even, the fun of the hunt is really the issue and the odd and unusual stuff are part of the trips' story, for me more enjoyable than buying momentos. One more day in this beautiful landscape then on to others that will be different but beautiful in their own right. Wish us safe driving and favorable weather.

greg g Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 where are you at now? We have returned to Syracuse from the WPC meet. Will you be passing through NY soon? Suggest you take US 20 (look for it west of Albany and south of I90) Very scenic, no toll, no traffic, passes about 4 miles south of my place. Lots of picturesque villages runs about 10 miles north of Cooperstown and the Baseball HOF. Interesting Farming museum in that town also. Supposed to be in the 90's next three days.

Ulu Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hey Paul, you did OK on the tools if that Micrometer is in good shape. I also see a spring compressor, a compass, a bevel gauge, a cheap factory Honda spark plug wrench, a real Ford monkey wrench, glass cutter, wood chisel, fish scale, tubing cutter, hog ring pliers, and a Chinese flashlight. It all looks pretty old, but useful (except the flashlight.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulu Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 see an International with sissy chrome grille No amount of chrome can make a sissy out of an IHC, just like long hair doesn't make a sissy out of Hulk Hogan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) the KB series with the chrome...takes the masculinity right out of the look of the truck...may as well just hang a necklace and earrings on it while you are at it..maybe some false eyelashes around the headlights...IHC is just another company...the K1 was a tough looking truck...

greg g Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 So you must have gotten there before sundown. Good to meet you folks. Did you have any delays at the border?

Plymouthy Adams Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Fiat is just an investor as was Damiler, the latter raped Chrylser like nothing else in the world was ever defiled. It a crap shoot as to what the former will do...heard they were ready to dump the package now .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
