'Ford tie in is Thomas Edison is mentioned.

Is that a contrail on that UFO?

Herb Iffrig

I found some evidence of KD experimenting with the skyhook idea we talked about earlier..

It seems he didn't get too far with due to the gravity of the situation.

Herb Iffrig

What are they Charley?

Herb Iffrig

These two look quite similar.

Herb Iffrig

Check those universal joints that are bronze next to a Model T one. If they are not the same as the T one they could be NRS Ford ones. I think the NRS ones are a little bigger maybe. I would be interested in them if they are.

Do you have a recipe for knurled tomatoes?
If I bought some at the store would I get a receipt?

Herb Iffrig

Do you remember this day?

Herb Iffrig

This makes me wonder. Did KD invent the sky hook? I remember my dad sending me to the shed to "Go get the sky hook!" I was too young and knew nothing of history. I never came back with it and am still looking for one.

The first car I bought was my 1918 Model TT Hucksters truck. My Dad saw an ad for it in the local paper. I went to look at it on a farm about 30 miles away from home. this was in 1974 when I was 18 years old. My friend Donny Pieper and I went to look at it. It was sitting out in the woods and neglec...

We know how to have fun, don't we?
By quite old for the rail car I meant it was pre WWI. Maybe 1880's.

Herb Iffrig

That is as I was told Jim. I was up near Cedar Falls Iowa a couple of years ago visiting a friend. They were getting ready for an Old Time engine and farm show. One of the things on display was a rail car from France that was used to haul the forty men and eight horses. The man there said that as a ...

That started the Hasenpfeffer Festival. It didn't last too long, they ran out of rabbits after a few years. But when it was an annual event oh my!

Dick only went hunting once. Here we see the crowd gathered to view the rabbit hunt result. 1785 rabbits!

Something happened that day and he didn't want to go hunting with Cheney after that.

Herb Iffrig

What is this one?

I have a windshield like that on my TT Hucksters.

From the internet: Swithin’s Day, also called St. Swithun’s Day, (July 15), a day on which, according to folklore, the weather for a subsequent period is dictated. In popular belief, if it rains on St. Swithin’s Day, it will rain for 40 days, but if it is fair, 40 days of fair weather will follow. A...

I'm starting to look like Dr. Emmitt Brown!

Herb Iffrig

OK that's the guys. I found a photo of the Ladies.

If you ask me it looks like the ladies are getting more done!

Herb Iffrig

Herb Iffrig

It should be removed.

Herb Iffrig

Is this an International?

Herb Iffrig

In the second last picture it looks like it has a shock absorber on it

Herb Iffrig

That's a good story.

A little different, but still some humor.

I think you are right.

Engel's Coach Shop has a video out now interviewing his brother in law. He has a lamp business and intends to do youtube videos on the restoration and manufacture of carriage lamps.
It should be very illuminating.

I think they make testing kits for lead paint. They probably at Home Depot.

There was an article on them years ago in one of the club magazines. I remember meeting Mr. Livingood at the Old Threshers Show in Mt. Pleasant Iowa. He had a conversion there.

Herb Iffrig

When did they make Shorpy's? Were they a regional brand?

If you click on the photo it will get larger and be easier to see details.

Doesn't everybody?

I decided to do my own research today. I believe Heinrich took the day off.
Going through the file I came up with two hits for Biscuit.

And

I don't know which might apply to the current topic.

What kind is it Dallas?

Herb Iffrig

I think EMF used them also.

Herb Iffrig

Is the rifle an option or an accessory?

Herb Iffrig

I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Herb Iffrig

Are there any differences at the other end?

Herb Iffrig

Are you sure it's not a ten wheeler?

Herb Iffrig

Kwik Poly was used for that problem.

Herb Iffrig

The information available on this forum is unbelievable.
What a wealth of historical information.
I hope someone has all this backed up for posterior.

Herb Iffrig

Here is an example of how it could be done. I wondered how they did those bulges on a straight rod.

Rich thanks for finding an interior view of the Noodle Factory. I could only find an outside view of the building.

It seem like a pretty big bid operation with even a railroad spur going to it.
They must have shipped oodles of noodles.

Herb Iffrig

I wonder how that window got broken in Hung's photo.

Herb Iffrig

I've been in the archives today and found some corroborating evidence.I know he doesn't look like it but this is Tu's cousin Hung One On.

Herb Iffrig

By golly I think you are right.
I remember seeing a Chase truck in a museum once. As I recall it was un restored.

What about gilsonite? I have been doing some research and have found this out: Gilsonite is a solid hydrocarbon mined in vertical veins in southern Uintah County, Utah. It is found in veins anywhere from a foot to twenty-two feet in width, and a depth of a few feet up to 2,000 feet. The black shiny ...

Wow Scott I have a similar story. When I was in grade school a couple of friends and myself started collecting coins. It was after 1964 because I remember we talked about keeping silver coins after the started making clad coinage. My Mom was the lunch ticket sales person at school on Monday mornings...

Herb Iffrig

I suppose it was one of those bare chassis TT trucks that was added to as things were found to ad on.

Herb Iffrig

This one looks to be put together.

I would like them please.

I will send an email.

It makes you womder.

Herb Iffrig

I would say that depends on factors that are unpredictable. Are you enjoying yourself? I imagine gold coins will never be valueless monetarily,

. Are you jumping in with everything you have? Don't do that.

Herb Iffrig

I'm going to call this a tractor trailer. Wouldn't you?

Herb Iffrig

Neil I too wondered about what looked like two steering wheels. Thank you for your input.
