The wide mirrors??? Do not know if it is an optical illusion, but that cab looks narrower than usual??? We need Aussie Paul to give us more details...

Neat Truck!!!!! With some TLC it will be a great work horse ute...

Welcome to BMT!! That is a great original survivor truck with a fantastic family history.. Please post us some more pictures.

Was out to dinner with a pretty drunk group one night when a smart ass who like his steak rare, told the waitress "Trim it's horns, wipe it's a$$ and walk him in"!!!! The waitress did not bat an eye. When she started serving us, the Chef, with is tall white hat, walked in with a RAW steak on the plate and asked " Would you like me to warm him up????" I thought the guy's wife was going to kill him!!!

It still needs another minute on each side!!!! I like mine done a little more than that..

Australian!!!!!! Hopefully MrsMackPaul will be able to answer your question??

I remember in the early 70's as a dispatcher for Matlack supervising a recovery, the shop foreman told me to be sure the wrecker driver removed both of axle shafts on the same side of the R-600 maxidyne / 5 speed and capped them with cardboard. I have to assume this did the same as dropping a driveshaft???? And a lot easier on a snow bank!!!!

Thank You Guys!!!!! Nothing has changed.. Still have to mow lawn tomorrow after last night's rain..

But remember that the Superliner was designed by Brockway!!!!!!!

Congratulations!!! Mine is today also, but a few more years on you.

Diesel was still $5.09 this afternoon about 3 PM.

I agree with Bob.. Even though the price of crude is going up, the fuel at the pumps for the last month were made from crude bought long before it hits the pump as refined product. But the price at the pump goes up immediately!!! WHY?????????????????

I always liked the concept and looks of oilfield gin pole trucks.

Diesel is still well over $5 here so I doubt if I will see you at Macungie???

Now that we have taken Larry's 300+ Rebuild topic totally OFF TOPIC, let's start one for continuing our thoughts. Bob Mowermen is thinking in the right direction about renting a 4 person (F-350-450) camper. I have no idea of the cost, but, depending on how much you plan on using it, on a per trip basis it should be cheaper than owning one?? And definitely easier than the hassle of motel rooms with pets. The best part is when you are ready to stop, all your need to find is a wide spot!! A camp ground is only necessary when you want to spend several days in one place. We have done several of the national parks on a drive thru basis and that sized camper will work a lot better than the big bus style. Alaska: We did it on a motel basis, BUT the towns with a motel are 100 miles apart!! So you had to stop at 5-6 PM to get a room or else try to find one after 7 PM. All their main highways have pull over areas (some with permeant outhouses) where you can park overnight. Depending on how long a trip you want to make, look into a camper on a one way basis. Fly or take the ferry the other way. We took the ferry from Bellingham Wash to Haines AK and were on the ground the rest of the way. Including Jasper and Banff Canadian National parks, where I walked on a glacier. To plan a trip to Alaska, purchase to book Mileposts. This is the bible!!! It lists everything from sightseeing to museums to road construction. Australia: We were on the two week 2015 ATHS Down Under Tour. This was a great mix of truck shows and private collections with a lot of tourist sights included. With a combination of air and bus transportation, and high dollar hotels and restaurants. To do it again I would rent a car, eat in pubs, and stay at motels. This trip was planned by Stephanie Vanatta, the daughter of ATHS past president John Vanatta, With her expertise as a travel agent and her father's truck connections it was a great trip. With the Aussie members we have here on BMT plus some visits to this website: https://www.hcvc.com.au/forum/index you can obtain introductions to many museums and private collections. Also include New Zealand as there is a big collection over there.
