I'll list the part numbers/sources if this is what you want.

 

Thanks for the info.

I will let you know what I need after I digest this.

 

Bill will hook you up, BUT you just might get a bad case of indigestion. I'll admit, he's been uncharacteristically cheerful lately, though.

I usually keep some Carters Liver Pills close by, in case he turns rogue.

Though they've been defunct for years, I was wise enough to stock up as soon as I met Bill.LOL!


Welcome to FTE.

 

They sure must be potent!

 

O.k., Steve, another quiz (sorry for the thread-jack):

What were Carters Pills commonly referred to as?

No fair Googling. If you don't know, Gary will. NumberDummy, don't help them please.

 

Honestly, without mr google, I don't know. I do remember they were in a little metal green tin container. Do I get any points for that? They were often mentioned in jokes by comedians back in the day!

 

Let's let it ride, it will tell everyone's age.

 

 

Since no one knows or has guessed correctly by now, fill in the blanks: Carter's _____ ______ starters.

 

Never heard that one before. Must have been just West coast as us Easterners are so dog gone ree-fined and such!

 

First time I heard what the pills were jokingly referred to was from my dad...who was born in Medford MA

Look up meteorism in the dictionary, then fill in the blank with the apropos slang word: Carter's little ______ starters.

 

Oh, I figured it out alright, just didn't want to say it out loud for those that may tring to come up with it. Flatulence promotion I think!

 

Whiz thru Germany, you'll see road signs that say: Eingang (enter) and Ausfahrt (exit).

 

Larry,

One idea would be to find a good used one. Some of the parts to rebuild are pretty expensive. I spent $450-500 to rebuild one. Too bad you aren't closer. I pulled a very good complete steering box from a F600 farm truck. With the new road safety specs around here farmers are selling these trucks and if you can get them before they go to the crusher you would be able get a decent box. Good luck.
