    Where is that and, what’s the special tonight? 20AFCE53-B175-470F-ABC5-E2E5CC7F0293.jpeg I’m at the loves in the ugly part of SE Chicago. I’ll be eating out of the microwave in my truck tonight. Delivered just up the street and pick up right around the corner again at 9 am. Should be home by 3 tomorrow?

    Yep, it sure is the Delco nut..
    It has a little cardboard spacer on there taking up slack in place of where the pulley will ride. I just assumed the nut was bottoming out on that spacer. With the spacer off, it sure enough spins on easy the first 3 turns or so. Then stops, & feels like I need a wrench the same as a nylock nut would. Pretty neat!! Thanks man.! :thumbup:

    You have my attention... never seen those other versions of @Long FLD truck. I’m kinda diggin the all white version.

    I like the way the visors fit on the blue one? I’m going to have to build my own or modify one for my truck. None of them look right on a international with the curved glass. They all sit so high up. I think I got a plan though.

    Yes, and you have to tarp more. There Is still enough to keep you busy though.

    Thats sort of a generic question. Yes and no is the best answer. Lol. Building materials and such, yes. Steel and aluminum coils, slabs, plate, stuff like that... not really. I have a lull between Thanksgiving and New Years, but we still stay busy.

    Ok, so last Shaker pic for awhile. But.... Can anyone tell me what this truck model is.? Looks to be an FLC, but with a wider hood, & very differently flared fenders.. Tried to find another image from head on to get a better look at the grille size, but not finding one..
