Very cool all the same. We had the smoke earlier, late spring/early summer, but I haven't been noticing it any at all since. And today will be cooler due to a high sunk down from that very area. I didn't realize the wind would blow south and west into Oregon. Seems odd to me, but apparently very normal I see

Took this pic yesterday of the thermometer on our back deck. In the shade, west side of the house. Not too much ice left on the north side of the house now. :lol:

Wow ..That's crazy. In Ct. we have not had one day that reached 90 in August.

Same here in southern MI. Haven't hit 90 since July 5th. Keep hearing about how hot this summer has been all over the world but us Michiganders haven't had that type of summer. Lake Michigan most likely won't be warm enough for most people to want to swim in this year. It's cold!

Supposed to hit 90 here Thursday then back to the 70's.

Mmmm 1964 reasonably price all original . Guy bought it in Texas and has had it here for 3 years . 259 v8 3spd with overdrive , Studebaker was using international fleet side beds at the time only thing I didn’t like it’s much wider than the cab and looks “off” I prefer the stepside beds

At first glance I knew it was a super beetle body, but on a model A frame with duece grille. But he cut off the front clip and used it on the rear. No doubt lots of work but that turned out to be alright.

Definitly needs a contoured grille, like a Topolino or Anglia, maybe ah Airflow. Visor ain't workin' either

That reminds me of this bad boy C-46 that I refueled every Thursday in Alaska when I was 19.

Saved a couple of bucks today. My timing light quit yesterday. Bought it off the tool truck in 1986. It was not cheap back then. Figured what the heck, so today I took it apart. The thin uninsulated wire had broken just outside of the handle. Lost about 4" off the pick up cord, but it was an easy fix. Ready for another 37 yrs of service! ;)

Probably could modify a bicycle rack for it.

Here's an interesting unit, wooden handle. If it's for pushing snow maybe they put chains on the tires. Maybe the engine is just for weight. I can't imagine that thing getting much traction. Very cute, though

yes sir,cute but as you say,if it was built for pushing snow,it wouldn't push much?

There’s one for sale at the local import repair shop.

My thought is I wouldn’t use a single axle anything behind a motorhome . Just asking for trouble .

The wife went out to pick a cucumber for dinner last night and came back in the house all excited wanting me to go out and get pictures of this dragonfly.

This truck delivered a large press to a local manufacturing plant. It has a rear engine as well as the regular tractor. How would you like to buy a full set of tires for that!

It’s pretty interesting how versatile and flexible those are to load/unload big big things…
