Good day Tony,
It is nice to have you back, you must be so proud of your son and his chosen profession.

I have been going through your thread a fair bit since I got my latest F60L and I even buy stuff off Mac's Auto now, thanks to you.

Somewhere in your thread you asked about the ends of the studs that hold the wheels together being painted or not, the wheels on my good C60L had the ends of the studs painted. The truck didn't come out of the army until 1955 so I imagine some poor appy being handed a tin of red paint and a brush and being told "Get on with it".

Cheers Ken
