Brocky

KSC, Thank you for the video. The Nuss collection always has a few trucks at Macungie. I have seen that Mack AC sightseeing bus at Macungie the year he had it there. What fantastic woodworking workmanship involved in building it.

Don, Check with Barry at Watts Mack. They are the sponsors of this website and their phone number is at the top of the page.

Both the Mack R model and the Brockway 700 series cabs were built by Sheller Globe in Ohio. I have been told the major difference in the cowls was because Mack used a tilt hood and Brockway was still using a butterfly hood. This begs the question: What cowl did Mack use on the Hardnose / Flintstone Models, built before the Brockway cab was built????? Is the Brockway cab a Flintstone cab???

Aussie Paul, Thank you for taking the time to post all of these excellent pictures. As Irish Paul stated: I wish I could have been there. Thank you for the pictures of Ed Edminston's 761 Brockway. I worked for Dick Crispell, who built that truck, in the summer of 1963 and last saw it in 1989 when I had dropped my trailer at his shop to go to my fathers memorial service. Here is a picture of it in front of his shop that day when it still had the 12V71 in it. He was just back from a show and the blue 1949 Brockway 100 series on the trailer was his wrecker when I worked for him.

Since you may have to rebuild the carport anchor system can you raise it at the same time??????

Probably the best people to give you a guesstimate on price would be Gary Mahan in NJ or the Nuss collection in Minnesota..

I hate to see that. You put a lot of time and money into getting it working right.. I hope you did NOT lose your shirt too bad. One consolation is you now have room in the car port for the Mack..

Was that chassis originally a fire truck??? The bell and siren say so???

I do not think he needs an engine??? BUT very possibly an in frame overhaul???

Swishy, Thanks for the videos.. I have seen a few of these trucks in person when I was Down Under in 2015.

As Confusious said "Blessed be they who go around in circles, For they may be called Wheels" !!!!!!!!!!

I think you are right on the iron lung engine..

I remember that at one of the ATHS national shows there was a man from California, with blue KW's with a gold stripe, that had a performance Cummins(??) engine mounted on a trailer with one of these electric retarders mounted behind it that he used to put a load on the engine when he fired it up.

Same here, but so far just one quick heavy shower.

Dunno about CT!! But in SC the antique truck application only asks for empty/tare weight. NO gross weight needed!!
