If it was originally a Matlack truck it might have been a driver trainer truck as the R models I drove for Matlack in 70-72 had NO passenger seat, but a tool box for fittings bolted in..

Some interesting reading, drag out a case of VB and enjoy yourself

Call the Brockway gift shop at the museum 607-299-4185.. The ladies there will be more than glad to help you with any items..

GG
Run 20 on over to Skaneateles and run down 41 will drop you on 11 just north of the museum.

Depending on how soft the ground is, there is quite a lot of room on the grass behind the tractor barn back toward the railroad tracks.. At least there are always a couple of wreckers around to winch you out of the mud!!!

Corbin KY ???

Our DPS man defines "commercial" as either the truck and/or driver recieving ANY FORM of compensation.. Trophys and ribbons do not count but cash prizes or someone buying you breakfast or a case of beer DO!!!

I sent you a PM.. go to the very top black bar on this page and click on the envelope..

also my email is brocky45@prtcnet.com I hit a t instead of a y in the other post. I have names and phone numbers in Columbia.

I need some more info on your new REO.. When Logan called Leroy for some history he did not give him a model number that worked and also did not give him any specs.. Do you have my email addy?? If so send the info and any pictures to me and I will get them on to Leroy..

Thanks Brocky

I live in South Carolina. Contrary to what I have always heard, the local DMV said anything over 26,001 GVW required a CDL regardless...

In SC you can put an Antique Auto tag on it which has no gross weight and pull a regularly licensed trailer with YOU OWN stuff on it as long as you meet normal weight laws. with NO CDL!! Will try to send you an email thru here if not email me at brocky45@prtcnet.com

Nice Find!! Will be looking for more pictures.. Mid 50's before White bought them??? I think Roger Gerhart also has one as well as the one who shows up at Macungie..

I sure am glad I am an old fashioned "Old Fart", Bought a new truck last summer WITHOUT any GPS, auto start, or any of this fancy s**t, and carry an old flip style cell phone.. I realize I am not totally immune. but it will make it a lot harder..

The Italian Sausage in meatloaf sound great.. will have to try it.. Thanks for the idea

FWD: Why the big front bumper??? Big winch enclosed???

you're welcome. I would have interviewed the pedestrians, but the light turned green so I had to go.

Is the lack of traffic lights in Winfall the reason you never help those poor girls???

Tom

Thanks for taking the time and effort to dig out these facts for us

Thanks for the pictures.. Been across that bridge many times.. before there was any bypass on the WV end..

It is a great place.. My wife and I spent all morning there 2 years ago on our way to the Yakima WA show and I am looking forward to stopping again when we go to the Des Moines show in 2017..

Beautiful country thanks for the pictures.. Also you may have more "snow experience" than some of their other drivers.

Bought my wife a 1lb box of Sonnet Cherries distributed from Chelan Fresh, Chelan WA yesterday at Wally World.. Are they some of yours???

Tom:

That is adding insult to injury by putting a Farmall muffler on a Furd pick up!!!

Somehow I think Oneida was the one???
