Where is everyone #5

I just found one like mine that sold on ebay for $300 back in June. It was cleaned up and painted.

 

Yup,AC purple people eaters. They were known for crankshaft issues. But when they ran....look out!

Also hard to get parts for them on the road.

 

You jest. But I’ve seen the movie Unstoppable! I know how this stuff works, LMAO

In Kenmare, ND for the evening

Cold snow and wind - no place for a delicate flower like me

 

Because the god @#$@% mother @#$%@! stupid @#$%, where's my @$@% thing for the @#$@% stuff, and why is this @#$@% thing siezed up when @#$%@ @#$%@%$@%@%^

*flips table*

That's why.

Sorry, the mechanic in me just came out. Time to go back to being the mild mannered truck driver.

Dr. Wrenchle and Mr. Dryve.

 

By the way... that movie is based on a true story and I have a hunch some of the Ohio-based fellas on here may remember it?

Thanks for the pics but everyone knows Allis Chalmers were Persian Orange not purple. They made ag equipment not truck engines. Or did they?

 

My name is ShooterK2 and I agree with this statement.

 

Yes they made truck engines at one time.... Big Al was proof of that .

 

Allis Chalmers built all kinds of stuff back in the day. Big Al was their venture into the over the road truck engine market. First time I ever saw one was on US 212 in Montana,in a new Freightliner in transit,broke down. They would pull,big engine in the day. I think they used that same engine in some of their big farm tractors,too.
