    Eddy Lucast over on Just Old Trucks has a KBS clear coat which will protect the present patina.

    That is the original "Rubber Duck" from the movie Convoy so ask Hollywood!!!

    I am guessing that that picture was taken at the ATHS Heart of Dixie chapter show in Gunthersville Alabama on a pier out into the Tennessee River???

    Paul, The Lee brand is owned by Vanity Fair Corp, VFC, along with Wrangler, Red Kap work clothes, Dickeys, and some others. All under the flag ship of VF Jeanswear and VF Workwear divisions.

    We walked down and did the old visitors center but it was too late in the afternoon to do the inside tour.

    My Diamond T 201 has the Clark rear on 7.50 X 16 spokes.. It is screaming at 40 (+/-) MPH!! I do not drive it much on the road as I do not trust the brakes that far to stop 5000 pounds.. If he plans on driving it much Jim's idea of an overdrive box is probably easier/cheaper than trying to change the rear??

    Thanks Ken.. It is in the works!! ATHS and travel agent Stephanie Anton, santon@cruiseplanners.com , are working on working on another Down Under Tour to the Truckie's Reunion at Alice Springs in 2020. Stephanie did an excellent job of putting together the two week 2015 Tour which not only was the Hall of Fame in Alice Springs but included many normal tourist sites as well as the Tony Champion Mack Collection and 4 more private collections in the Melbourne area. My report on the whole trip is here: http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/84264/Down-Under-Trip If anyone is interested in going contact Stephanie to get on her mailing list.

    KS, If it is county probably a dump truck and retired to be a fuel/water truck??

    I still have a flip phone (almost new) and it resides in the cup holder in my truck..Road emergency or work related only.. very seldom use it.. and erase missed calls unless it is a number I recognize..

    Jim, Thank You.. Mr Saunders collection does some fine pieces. BUT I personally think he over does the Bling!! There was not that much chrome in that era, especially on working trucks??

    CG, Not entirely.. The Triple Nickel is a lot smaller than a 8-71 or 903..
  20. Brocky
    The Red Head must be keeping him busy????
  21. Brocky
    I have a Brockway 358 with a V8 engine out in the barn.. Cummins 504 cubic inch.. the same engine as the 555 "Triple Nickel" but with a 1/2 inch shorter stroke.. Notorious for breaking cranks in hard work.. Good for a hobby truck.

    Thank you KS.. I Have been up to this weekend celebration several years and The Brockway Preservation Assn are great people who work hard for this show.

    Tom That Carter Spartan 100 still exists. I believe it was the first new tractor that the late Ed Carter bought for his trucking business.. Here it is at the 2016 Special Olympics Convoy on a trailer. The Pete pulling it is also I think Ed's first Pete with his grandson, John, driving it??
  24. Brocky
    Carolina Freight also had about 37 Brockway cabovers (Basically the Mack F model) 225 Cummins and 10 speed. 11k steers and 38k drives

    Jim Aaron Benito over on JOT can probably give you some answers to a lot of questions about it.
