Can you guess
Brocky replied to hicrop10's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
The bill of sale on my 1959 Diamond T 921C was just over $15,000 so I will say about $20,000 plus or minus about $2000??????????? -
JoJo, Thank you for taking the time to post all those pictures from Mt Airy... That is a little too far for me for a one day show.. Also I do NOT care for the loud "music" that Bottomley like to drown out other shows with!!!
-
Hippy, I think(???) Roadway had some Macks set up the same way?? With a 60/40 weight distribution on the front drive axle.. And an air bag over the drive pumpkin so the driver could increase the weight on it in low range only to get out of slick spots!!
-
Looks like you got hit worse than we did.. Also have a lot of small limbs to pick up. We actually had more wind on Thursday with clear skies..

That Willys wagon was at Harrisonburg last year,, They stayed at the same motel we did..

Climate Change??? A BIG Bunch of BS. The Ice Age was how many thousand years ago?? If you look at American history we have been having progressively milder winters since the 1700's.. Who says we are not still coming out of the ICE AGE ?????????????
-
JoJo I sort of agree with you, BUT from what I have read Putin's genocide is worse than Hitler's!!! Non accidental shelling many civilian sites instead of military!! Russia has already lost over 58000 men. Also read on Daily Caller that the Russian people are fleeing the country instead of doing their reserve call up..

Tom, Thanks for the explanation and directions!!! I have that Paint on my computer and use it to crop my pictures for the newsletter.. I will have to go back and experiment with sizing!!!!

Highest/last “DE” chassis number?
Brocky replied to VaPatentman's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I think(??) Brockway assigned the serial number when the order came in?? so there are gaps and out of sequence numbers.. -
I can remember the Astro's, Diamond REO's and F Models.. There is an UPS F model in the America on Wheels museum in Allentown PA, hooked to a single axle pup trailer which has a video screen up on the deck and seating by the wheel boxes.
-
I agree with Larry.. Your picture of Sept 13 shows a lot of GOOP around the springs, is there more elsewhere???? I would get this stuck one loose and get the lube changed and let it run for a while before parking it for the winter.. A long inactive period might just set things up worse??????????????
-
Tom, Thanks for all the great work posting these pictures. I must try to get back up there again. but it seems there is always a show down here that weekend. All of my pictures are on my desk top computer.. I make a copy and light enhance and crop the ones I use in the chapter newsletter.. I have never learned how to resize????

Cleaning air tank
Brocky replied to skydawg's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
As long as you only get a small amount of oil each time you drain you are fine.. If you continually get a large amount, a cup or so, then you have to start thinking about rebuilding / replacing the compressor as the rings have lost their tension and are pumping motor oil into the air system. -
That 3 point hitch looks farmer installed off an 8N Ford??? I am thinking(???) that Jeep had a factory 3 point hitch on the CJ2 and/or 3?????
-
That many years and you still have not learned to tuck your shirt tail in???????? My grand mother would stripe yo legs!!!

B-73 Restoration
Brocky replied to mattb73lt's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Matt, Thank you very much for this info and your service to our country!!! I have some friends with A&P licenses and it always shows up in their work, whatever they are doing. One in particular is Jeff Lakaszcyck over on the Just Old Trucks website. He spent over 30 years with NASA at Cape Canaveral. The military Mack at Macungie in 2021 is his, as well as the 1942 Federal C-2 Retriever, with the aircraft style inertia starter shown at the ATCA Winter national in Leesburg FL. The video of it starting the truck is on You Tube. -
That looks to be in good shape.. An easy refurbishment.. Are you going to be able to keep the original patina??

B-73 Restoration
Brocky replied to mattb73lt's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Tom (Oldspwr) actually did 2 Brockways and then repowered the first one from flathead Continental to 5.9 Cummins, which included rebuilding the rear to change the ratio. Now he is working on a Chevy pickup for his brother. His documentation was fantastic, but now that the Brockway website is apparently gone I hope that the information is saved somewhere??? -
I do Not know???? Our tent collapsed in the rain at Dacusville, Brad bought a new one, BUT he has to work tonight and not sure if he will make it.. I have the tables and chairs in the DT with some ATHS & ATCA Hand out material which I will probably set up.. Our Chapter will be in the same area as last year.
