    I haul only in Northwestern Ontario, I really don't miss the traffic of big cities at all.

    Slight variations from the Super Power to the Mustang. This Super Power was in silent auction I entered few years ago while the other White Mustang my BIL restored fullsizeoutput_1a2.jpeg 37-1940sWhiteSuperPower3ton.JPG

    There are still lots out there. Entrance to auction were all runners! The '41 Ford 6x6 with Marmington driveline was ultra cool I thought IMG_1481_1.JPG 1-1940Ford6x63tontandem4speedtranshigh-lowauxillarytrans13ftsteeldeck158wheelbase.JPG

    This is what happens when the house lock lets go while chaining down. This happened in1982.
    Tractor was a 1979 Western Star "hot" Cummins big cam 350 5X4 trans 5.29ratio 55000 diffs on Hendrickson 55000lb walking beam with a 50 ton Garwood winch pulling a Arnes 16 wheel jeep and 16 wheel trailer with a 8 wheel booster (not shown, left so that the load could walk up the beavertail with a dirt ramp )
    broken houselock.jpg no damage other than a bent 5th wheel on the 16 wheel jeep and a lot of mud on the counterweight.
     
    wore out, Tug Toy, Slowpoke KW and 7 others Thank this.
