The sign guy came by today and stuck the new decals on our old Paystar truck. We ended up not changing the shade of Allis-Chalmers blue as the others were so dark that they looked almost black. I noticed he added the hyphen between Allis and Chalmers so all is good with the world.   |

I like it !!!!! I bought a new Ford LNT 9000 in 1978 and painted it PO II before it left the dealer. Still have it. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

If I remember correctly, its a 1973. Lots of power and fun to drive for about 15 minutes. |

No, actually the former owners slid a new Cummins crate motor in it in 2004. Lots of power, but the cab is as plain and uncomfortable as they could possibly make it! Its fun going through the gears with a overloaded hopper bottom, but once you are up to speed, its like "ugghh". |

| Just pull the seat and put in a nice one with a good air ride it Wil be a totally different truck to drive. Seems stupid to spend money on a seat till you do it and realize how much more you like the equipment afterwards. |

We pulled a good seat out of a junk truck recently with the idea of installing it in the pumpkin paystar. It also gets a new set of used tires off a wrecked truck we bought for that reason. It whispered to me the other day that it appreciated all the attention! |
