  1. Call me old fashioned but I agree with RR on the old flip phone to talk ONLY, and no connection from my truck computer to the manufacturer..
  2. Send your request, along with a donation, to the Mack Museum in Allentown..You will receive a big info package in return..
  3. Tom Did that tanker have a hose reel mounted in what looks like a cut out near the back???
  4. Here is a link to 300+ pictures of a recent show in Lancefield, New South Wales(???), Australia.. click on the slide show and enjoy http://robspictures.zenfolio.com/p423435202
  5. Timmy I gave the last $50+ to the taxi driver who took us from the hotel to the Melbourne airport.. I sorta cleaned out my wallett instead of using the credit card!! Other than a plane change in Brisbane our next stop was Hawaii!! I have listened to Slim Dusty sing "The Man from Snowy River" many times.
  6. We learned to lean a crowbar, it is a better conductor than the human body, against it while working / repairing a fence line..
  7. Tim and other Aussies No Problem!! Mike can just take it to his local bank and they will convert it to $US. My bank here in SC got me $800 Aussie cash before we left on the Down Under Tour.
  8. KSC I do not remember talking directly to the owner that afternoon, but I seem to recall hearing the word Burma tossed around in context with the truck. Too many conversations and a short memory!!
  9. I am not sure if this is the same 2 1/2 ton truck??? Pictures were taken at the 2015 ATHS chapter meeting at Archie Baines shop in Victoria Australia
  10. This last weekend was the ATCA Southern National "Snowbird Macungie" show sponsored by the ATCA Vintage Trucks of Florida chapter at Stew Paquette's Farmall museum west of Leesburg. I am going to cheat and just post a link to pictures of the show taken by Jeff Lakaszcyck and myself. http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/109186/ATCA-Winter-National-Show
  11. That is what Obuma did!! Nothing could not be printed unless it praised him!!!
  12. Here are a couple more Dawson Creek pictures I took in 2013. This sign is on the north east side of the intersection and is in the parking lot of a rest area type information center / museum.
  13. IT DID!!! Thanks for sharing these pictures..
  14. Check over on brockwaytrucks.com and see if someone can help you.. I know Brockway used a lot of Sheppards.

    MEK

    It is also Highly Flammable with a flash point down in the low 30's F..
  17. Billy, Do not know where you are located. In addition to Jim's answer the majority of the wings are mounted on the right hand side although in areas such as the Tug Hill Plateau in upstate NY with Lake Effect snow, there are wings on both sides and a big "V" plow on the front. Some of them RM 4X4 Macks. Search You Tube and you can get videos of many in operation.
  18. Would this Mack tractor been used more on the eastern (Chicago?) end of PIE's operation???
  19. Why not just go to "B Doubles" like Canada and Australia???
  20. Yes, White had their fingers in a lot of pies.. Including farm tractors Oliver, Cockshutt and Minne Mo, But look what happened to them?? Total Bankrupt.. Dick Callaway wrote a long article on the White Corp that took 3 issues of ATHS Wheels of Time to publish last year.
  21. Most Older trucks were set up for separate brake and turn lights in the rear. So if you have a newer turn signal switch, possibly that is where your turn signals are getting crossed with the brake lights. Your thinking on separating the brake and turn lights in the rear is correct and might solve your problem. The 7 pin plug should have bottom center (6 o'clock) as a red brake wire and 4 & 8 o'clock be the green and yellow turn signal wires.
  22. John "Bubba" Randolph in Gaffney SC has one on his yellow V-8 Superliner.. PM me and I can send you contact info.
