  1. On Saturday April 27, 2019 the ATHS Palmetto Upstate Chapter trucks will be joining in with the Blue Ridge HS FFA and the Dark Corner Tractor club Family Farm Day at the Lindsey Plantation, 750 Cash Creek Road, Taylors, SC 29687. This is just North of the Greenville / Spartanburg area of South Carolina. For more information and/or directions contact Brocky at 864-677-3453 or brocky45@prtcnet.com
  2. An RM with a little dinky one way???? Most had a V and at least one wing, a lot with 2 wings!!!
  3. Did you stop at that big bone yard in Moriarty?? Always wanted to, but never had the time when they were open..
  4. If the first cutbacks in pay from the shutdown were the congressmen involved, The shut down would end immediately!!!!
  5. Do they have to change all the gear box and axle oils before they get to their destination???
  6. That is a neat truck!! Thank you, Harry
  7. I am attaching a page from one of the Aussie antique truck forums which shows a brochure of Mack using the Brockway Huskiteer 527 cab as a cab on a Mack LCF tractor. Neither Jim Hancock or I can tell if the pictured truck has the flat glass windshield?? https://www.hcvc.com.au/forum/truck_Chat/15057-mack-nothing-but-m-a-c-k-pix?start=400
  8. Probably the Swift driver's neighbors were complaining about him parking, so he used F Model's truck as an example to get out of his bind..
  9. You can start on February 14th to 16th at the ATCA Vintage Trucks of Florida chapter show combined with the ATCA Southern National show, the SNOWBIRD MACUNGIE, in Leesburg FL on FL RT 44 near the I-75 / FLA Pike split at Wildwood. This event is held in a park like setting at Stew Paquette's Farmall Museum with 3 buildings containing over 100 tractors and machinery. Saturday a car club shows up with about 25 cars, plus tractor pulls, vendors, food and music. I will be there with my little Diamond T 201 along with about 75 to 100 other trucks.
  10. And a Merry Christmas to all the MACK Men "Down Under"
  11. Those 2 bolts have an eye in the head of them so if you cannot turn them by hand you can use a bar in them.
  12. With wimmin that HOT in Winfall you should be seeing green grass!!!
  13. My mother had an Easy with the 3 brass plungers that went up and down and a wringer to the rinse tubs. Can remember being in the wringer up to my elbow before she tripped it!!! Next upgrade was a triangular shaped Easy with a rinse spinner on the end. No dryer until mid 60's after we got natural gas.
  14. That last one is neat, BUT Not many aluminum Budd's around in 1956!!!!
  15. WOW Paul!!! What a list!!! Since these organizations are aiding and abetting a criminal activity (entering the US illegally) the IRS should step in and revoke all their non profit tax status so the left wing liberal "do gooders" can pay the support of all these so called immigrants..
  16. I believe Soros is behind this whole movement. Who is organizing and paying the food and transportation bill to get that many people from southern Central America to the San Diego border??
  17. OD, you are gaining on it!!! A sexy redhead that can cook!!! Had my Scrapple on the east side of Lancaster PA on Sunday morning. Was thinking of you when I fueled at the Sheetz in Madison Heights about 4 PM Sunday..
  18. Vlad I am glad to hear that Randy and family served you a good American Thanksgiving turkey dinner!! Did he serve some good PA Dutch Scrapple with your eggs the next morning??? Continue to enjoy your stay in the States.
  19. If you have never been there put the America on Wheels museum in Allentown PA on your list.. Covers a little bit of everything from horse and buggy to modern high dollar sports cars with a lot of Mack stuff in between. I think Mack's 1910 Brockway is there? Mack cutout drivetrain parts, one room describing a restoration, and the time I was there, the day after Thanksgiving, a model railroad club had one room full of a big set up.
  20. If you send a sample to Bub Warren (lilyellowbus37@gmail.com) 1620 South Johnson St, Amarillo Tex 74102. Phone 806-374-3056. He owns the Diamond T Rubber company and can build anything. He may already have the template as I heard he was making Mack, Federal and some others.

    I am another who chase You Tube for older entertainers. One of my favorites is Australian country singer the late Slim Dusty. Plenty of trucking songs as well. One title of interest here is "I am married to my Bulldog Mack". Many of his videos have stills or video of Australian trucks.
