  1. You might be safe in 2027 The new leadership will stop us from sinking those "fishing " boats. They will likely let Maduro go and pay him resition for the boats cause they need cheap coke on Martha's Vineyard.
  2. Hurry up they are building the last few out with parts they had on hand before the move to FL
  3. Hard to find decent help these days none of the young want to work that type of job, those jobs are below them
  4. Yes to all 3 I could get rubber on the 1-2 shift with my 250 I-6 Nova 3 on the tree, my 1st car I did every low cost hop up on that 250 six, two barrel carb, recurved distributor, MSD box, more initial timing, turbo muffler and taller air filter.
  5. The 405 was the big dog of International’s early-1950s highway lineup: an Emeryville-built diesel tractor rated for 64,000 pounds gross combination weight. Order the Cummins NH or supercharged NHR diesels, or a massive Hall-Scott gas or butane engine, and the truck got a factory-stretched nose with an oversized grille to keep it cool on heavy West Coast mountain hauls. In the model codes, a “D” meant diesel and an “F” meant tandem rear axles, so an LD-405 was a diesel and an LFD-405 was a diesel tandem. The 405s earned their reputation out West, where durability mattered more than fancy features. Around 1951, an LD-400 series tanker hauling for Eastern Washington Transports was working the roads near the Port of Seattle. When the R-Line arrived, International mostly left its heavy-duty models alone. Clearly the company knew it had a good thing going. The Emeryville plant became a legend in its own right. Its trucks helped make International the largest seller of heavy-duty trucks in the world at the time, and by the early 1960s its DCOF-405 cabover had been the best-selling American heavy truck for four years running. Dick Boyd of Ottumwa, Iowa, brought his “Class of 53” LD-405 to the 2026 ATHS National Convention & Truck Show, and it’s a fine reminder of why these long-nosed Internationals still turn heads more than 70 years later.

  6. Sounds like you have a pump problem too
  7. Offloads from the old days https://www.facebook.com/reel/2043000289699780
  8. Another old military chassis repurpose The old military trucks got many rural areas fire coverage after the war Many rural districts still purchase surplus military chassis and repurpose for fire and DPW use
  9. Someone hit a deer with there car thought it was dead and wanted the meat and put it in the back seat. The deer came to and proceeded to thrash and trashed his car even farther
  10. Pretty common in some areas https://electionfraud.heritage.org/case/200379 https://www.wshu.org/connecticut-news/2026-08-26/ct-bridgeport-ballot-stuffing-case
  11. They should then we can have real election integrity That's why some states allow same day registration and voting and others don’t. Then we can have consistency and no non-citizen voting
  12. You can be in the same state and still be too far away to vote in person in your home locality on Election Day. Still not the Federal government's problem
