    1941 K18-C GMC Recovered today

    You don't think that flywheel is in need of a turning? Looks a bit on the rough side.

    Helluva banging noise and won't turn over

    CSM, Technically yes, IF it were the original from the factory starter and even then they were changing over at that time. I keep forgetting that 30 years ago is 1985! That is depressing, I am getting old. I have never heard an engine "Banging" due to a low battery, Solenoid chatter or not. If...

    Helluva banging noise and won't turn over

    Just as an aside, Do NOT bang on the starter unless you plan on replacing it! That worked 30 years ago when the magnets were ferrous magnets but now they are ceramic rare earth magnets and will break very easily if you hammer on them.

    Helluva banging noise and won't turn over

    Sounds like a broken crankshaft. They are famous for breaking behind Number 2 rod journal.

    2014 Va Rally at Graves Mountain Aug 29-Sept 1, 2014 (aka, Labor Day Weekend).

    Sorry Pete, Scrounger was at our site as I was breaking down and he said he would help me out , he had to drag his stuff out for someone else also. It is a nightmare maneuvering that beast around in there with people and carts and junk so I took the easiest route.

    2014 Va Rally at Graves Mountain Aug 29-Sept 1, 2014 (aka, Labor Day Weekend).

    Good point, My math was off anyway since I have to give 6 months for our lovely state to process the paperwork and it is already the end of April we are looking at 11/1. hat is good in a way since it means I will only have 6 months before I can tap social security.

    And when did I ever chase you and your cigars away? Believe me, there is no better entertainment in the world than watching you cook breakfast on a defective butane stove. Explains why you have no hair.rofl

    2014 Va Rally at Graves Mountain Aug 29-Sept 1, 2014 (aka, Labor Day Weekend).

    May be a little tougher this year. They have transferred me again and this time they are going out of their way to make my job a living ****. They want me to quit but I am going to retire which means I have to stay at least six months for the paperwork to go through. My biggest problem is that I...

    Official 2015 Military Transport Association of NJ Show & Swap Meet 4/18-19

    I feel your pain, Had the same thing happen to me at Aberdeen a few years back except that it was club members that chased me out of my vendor spot and then where I went there were drunk military members doing drill all night! I hate to say it but I think camping at any of these shows anymore is...

    Official 2015 Military Transport Association of NJ Show & Swap Meet 4/18-19

    I have a question about the camping, I am partially disabled and cannot walk long distances. I was looking at a Google earth shot of the fairgrounds and I do not see anything that even closely resembles a campground or a camping area with hookups. Where is the camping and how far is it from the...

    2015 Aberdeen and Findlay shows -SAME DAYS!

    Aberdeen, 90 miles. Findlay, 575 miles. Just can't justify it. Next year it will probably be Sussex in the spring and Gilbert in the fall. I already paid for this year at Aberdeen since I wanted to be sure I got the same spots as last year with Cabel and his crowd.
