Bob may be right on the rusted to the drum??? Get a big FN hammer and beat on both the drum and brake shoes with the parking brakes in either released or caged.. IF you hear a good "POP" then they will be free and released by the return springs..

All of your Conn driving comments are the main reason I DO NOT go up to visit my daughter in Cheshire very often.... Plus my arthritic hips can not sit in one place that long..

Just a reminder that this coming Sat and Sun (Labor Day Weekend) is the ATHS Palmetto Upstate Chapter show in conjunction with the Dacusville Heritage Assn farm days. I am going to be presenting Dean Jenkins (1961H67) with his ATHS 50 year achievement award. If all BMT guys that show up near the chapter tent about 11 AM(???) maybe we can build a group picture??

Cruiseliner Transformation
Brocky replied to cruiseliner64's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Not only low mileage but with so many parts date coded it must be about the most factory original antique / historical vehicle that has been worked around. I have heard about some cars which were bought new and put away. The green Louisville Ford in the Background of this picture only has a few hundred miles on it as Erv Bickford bought a fleet of these and never put it in service.

ED, I have never seen a pumper with those big hose reels in the back.. How do they work??? Maybe GA Dave can answer??? -
I have heard that the Cracker Barrel idea came from the old Bean Pot restaurant in Crossville Tenn with parking for about a half dozen trucks. My wife loves them BUT the hardest and most expensive part is getting her thru the store part to the door going out.. I always thought they were like the old Howard Johnsons:: Overpriced for the size of the portion..

I would guess higher!!!! possibly 28k??? He has a 40 ft tri-axle trailer with more living quarters in it. What does his "battleship" weigh?? My quadcab Dodge Ram 3500 with a steel flatbed, 32 foot tandem axle gooseneck, and the 49 Diamond T 201 (5000 lb) goes on the high side of 23,000 full of fuel..

Reminds me of a safety man who took my wife out of the only tractor she had driven, a Pete with a 15 over transmission with the inverted pattern for a road test in his KW city tractor with a standard 9 speed and came back and said she should go to school as she could not shift right!!!! And the rest of the drivers just laughed at HIM!!!

Let's hope that Trump's taking control of DC's crime problem will spread to other cities in the US and clean up this problem nationwide..

Paul, Thank you for the video on Kurt Johannsen.. I have seen "Bertha" in person at the Truckies Museum in Alice Springs. Everyone should put that museum on their bucket list.. Picture taken in August 2015.

Hopefully he killed it.. You do NOT need them digging holes in your lawn..
