      Нельзя так отворачивать , на раскаленном до красна . Резьбу может задрать , металл мягким становится .
      Надо нагреть потом водой охладить и потом отворачивать.

    hi.. Im 80 years old.in my mid 20s i met an extraordinary man by the name Rio Hovey. he had worked at Diamond Reo in Lansing mich for38 years. he named his daughter Reolia. A fine man, became a good friend, we shared a love for gelogy and gems. his crystal cluster collection would rival any in museums. he had searched and dug and collected all of them himself.. he was also an avid and miraculous gardner. seeing that old truck brought all the memories of Rio Hovey flooding back.. A wonderful gift. thank you..

    An REO tanker is a one of a kind national treasure. These things are only seen up close in museums today or in rare historical photos. Hammering loose the back left axles wouild have made the tow job easier. When that guy has the truck restored and even manages to get it running and driving, he will be the envy of all truck drivers everywhere. REO trucks are extremely rare.

    Where there is a will, there is a way. Great video.
    When I was a teenager (late 1950's) I drove a 1953 REO in the hay fields on my dad and uncle's farm.
    My aunt who turned 100 last year still has the truck.

    One summer in the 70’s I stayed with my uncle in Canada. My objective was to improve my English and maybe help him at his quarry. My 2nd day he put me in a Diamond Reo 3 axle dump truck with. 6 cylinder gas motor. I was to spread gravel and that meant chaining the gate. The truck would wheelie every time ! Small cab I remember. I think the transmission was 5 main (2 levers) and 3 auxiliary. Thank you Andrew for sharing.

    That truck is definitely worth cleaning, painting and hopefully making it run with the original engine. I'd probably go to aluminum wheels and radial tires for comfort. I wouldn't go overboard but definitely some sandblasting and suspension and brake upgrades for safety. A cool piece of history and I believe they made the first pickup truck.

      *JESUS himself Prophesied (PROPHET MOHAMED) in BIBLE with Title of (UPCOMING ANOTHER COMFORTER) & As (PRINCE OF THIS WORLD) --- (Hence Accept ISLAM now) ---*
      *Revelation 22:7* Blessed are those who obey the words of prophecy written in this book
      *John 14:16* And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you *ANOTHER COMFORTER* that he may abide with you forever
      *John 14:25* These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you
      *John 14:26* But the *COMFORTER* which is the Holy Ghost whom the father will send in my name he shall teach you all the things and bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you
      *John 14:30* Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the *PRINCE OF THIS WORLD cometh* and hath nothing in me
      *John 15:26* But when the *COMFORTER* is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me
      *John 16:7* Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away the *COMFORTER* will not come unto you; but if I depart I will send him unto you
      *John 16:8* and when *HE* is come he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment
      *John 16:12-13* I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when *HE* the spirit of truth, is come, *HE* will guide you into all truth: for *HE* shall not speak of himself but whatsoever *HE* shall hear, that shall *HE* speak and *HE* will show you things to come. He shall glorify me
      Some Christians say that the Comforter mentioned in these prophecies refers to the Holy Spirit. They fail to realize that the prophecy clearly says that only if Jesus (p.b.u.h) departs then the Comforter will come. The Bible states that the Holy Spirit was already present on earth before and during the time of Jesus (p.b.u.h), in the womb of Elizabeth, and again when Jesus (p.b.u.h) was being baptized, etc. Hence this prophecy refers to none other than Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h).The Spirit of Truth, spoken about in this prophecy also refers to none other than Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h)
      *NOTE* the word Jesus Christ and the word Christianity derived from word Christ both are man made words not divine.According to the original manuscript of bible which is in Hebrew or Aramaic jesus real name is MESSIAH or ESAU/ESAW
      *Bible* as a whole (OT+NT) is a holy book of [jews/israel] it has nothing to do with Christianity
      *Christianity* is a man made religion not divine
      jesus christ is a man made name given to the *Messiah* of bible
      *Messiah* of bible never claimed any religion by name of Christianity
      TRINITY also a man made word not divine
      jesus/messiah was a jew by cast a jew prophet who has been sent by GOD for guidance of jewish tribes only
      *JOHN 1:11* He came unto his own(jews) and his own(jews) received him not.
      *MATTHEW 15:24* i am not being sent but only unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel
      *MATTHEW 5:17* Don't misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the LAW OF MOSES or the writings of the prophets(of Jews). No, I came to accomplish their purpose
      Hence proved 4rm all above references that MESSIAH was a jew prophet came for guidance of jews only thats why HE Prophesied LAST *PROPHET MOHAMED* as an upcoming final comforter and upcoming prince of this world for all the nations and tribes of this world
      *Hence Accept ISLAM Now*
