I found a pic of a South Jersey NO that was used as a wrecker. It was part of a collage from an old time dirt tracker.

I give you "The Monster"

I just found this thread. Great shots posted on your Flickr account!

Too bad the rain spoiled an otherwise great show. I was too busy working the race/show gate that I didn't get a chance to walk around. There was a nice mix of old iron this year.

I really wanted to see those chaps from England run that JCB wheelie backhoe!

Very nice setup. Is that the old Fred Craig GMC that used to be black?

Good to see it's looking better than ever and hauling show trucks too.

I found a Texaco tanker pic on the web. It had the logo on the door.

Another one found on the web.

Sharp cabover taken at Macungie 2010.

This nice looking Marmon belongs to John Hoppes and I took this at the ATHS national show in South Bend IN.

I captured that same sharp Marmon at Gerhart's in 2008. I liked the neat Cummins "Fireball" badge. Super sweet unit!

I didn't know where to post this but I shot the pic in NJ. I spoke to a friend of the owner who said they just finished it. It's a '66.

From the R700 pics that I have seen it looks like they changed the forward cab mount in '77 or '78. That may have raised the cab another 3 or 4 inches thus the deeper fender. The top of the fender still followed the hood crease.

The Western long hoods are another story all together.

I remember when Wawa ran R-models and switched to (gasp!) aardvarks.

The aardvarks ran black spokes too.

B61 toy truck. I wish I knew the details on this one.

Seeing the Cummins sticker in the back window and locking hub I'm guessing Dodge W3500.

Thanks for posting that Gary Gray truck from Delaware, NJ. I was looking for it all day.

Anybody hear of Al Pomponio from Jackson NJ?When I got my papers from the Mack museum for my R795 his name was on the order form which was odd to me as Pondish told me they bought it new.I got in contact with Al Pomponio's son and he told me his dad ordered two of them but only needed one truck when they came in(Pondish bought the other).They also bought a new DM800 that year,wonder if any pics are around???

I remember Pomponio's trucks running sand trailers. Mostly all black Macks but I don't recall seeing the R-700. His son Skip had some beautiful needlenose Pete show trucks but I haven't seen them recently. This pair was taken in '08.

Did the weather hold off Chuck?

Hey Rob! Weather was overcast all morning and lots of trucks coming in all day until the rain hit at 2:00 pm. It rained steady from there on out and they never finished the racing portion.

At 7:00 pm it started to mist and they let the monster trucks do their show as planned. Such a shame because there was a lot of nice equipment there.
