A: People make waaaay too much of these weasel... uhh, I mean diesel powered rigs. They cost more to maintain than a regular car. Nope. Not for me! My '73 J4000 will do till I can flatdeck it (I'd really like a M715 frame with 12' bed instead. Won't be as happy with a GM 2 ton frame and the drivetrain from my J4000 with the GM 2 ton upgraded axles) If that doesn't pan out, my wife's Granpa and Uncle still have the Stude tow truck waiting for me to get it running again (been sitting up in a barn for nearly 25 years in Scott county, WV) From: "Brien Tourville" <hh7x@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [AMC-List] La France - IH Navistar, hmmm To: mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx Message-ID: <453B707E.12026.4059234@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Brien Why put up with one of those wimpy Cadillac's when you can have a NAVISTAR http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6026041/ John ============================== I'd thought of doing this with one of those 50s' La France open seat Fire Engines - there's a 'beauty' sitting in Poughkeepsie just rusting quietly - drips with chrome - single open front seat - split windshield - no doors to speak of - > one plasma arc & a welding rig would put me in way cool pickup territory - =Bt= milnersXcoupe _________________________________________________________________ Stay in touch with old friends and meet new ones with Windows Live Spaces http://clk.atdmt.com/MSN/go/msnnkwsp0070000001msn/direct/01/?href=http://spaces.live.com/spacesapi.aspx?wx_action=create&wx_url=/friends.aspx&mkt=en-us _______________________________________________ AMC-List mailing list AMC-List@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.amc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/amc-list or go to http://www.amc-list.com
