I went to the Hartford Fair pulls on Monday night in Croton, Ohio. Sadly, there were only 4 semi-trucks pulling and sadder yet, no Macks (where's Kendra Rogers when you need her?). There was a Brockway 459 that won the class; below are pictures of Brockasaurus and its KT Cummins motor. I also threw in pics of a cool KW with V12 Detroit...I like those double smokin' stacks! Another photo of a jet engined tractor burning off the excess fuel.

Welcome...your 31 sounds like a cool car. I agree, it's more fun to work on trucks.

Here in Columbus Ohio there are a lot of folks that throw candy in the July 4 and Veteran's Day parades. It does get scary with kids running out into the street.

In the early '70s my dad had a contract for one of his drivers to haul chicken offal in Jacksonville FL using tarp top dump trailers. When it got real hot that stuff would percolate and push out over the sides. A small town sheriff arrested one of the drivers for allowing that stuff to fall from his truck while driving through his town. One time a driver rolled his truck off the side of the interstate, I'll never forget the smell of that mess.

Yeah, that torsion bar setup is a real beast. I worked at Pic-Way Shoes in the 80's and we had 10 of them. We spent a lot of time replacing bushings on them, and you have to take the weight off the suspension to get them greased properly.

$750 or trade for $$$$...what a deal! I think I have some old $$ laying around.

END673 Mack motor
h67st replied to ddtruckin's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
There have been several posts about this; if you type "valve adjustment" into the search box at the top right you will find some really good pointers. -
I worked at Cat in the early '80s...they made a lot of money fixing 3208s. They were a decent motor, but definitely not for a big truck.

Old school truck lettering
h67st replied to jackb61sx's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Mr. Gardner, that is some fine looking paint work on that truck. Glad to see people like you keeping the craft going. -
My wife and I went down to McConnelsville Ohio on Sunday and stopped at the Big Muskie Bucket. It's impressive; it's sad that they couldn't save the whole dragline. The sign said when it was built, it was the largest moveable machine in the world.

Those have the low-flow cooling system; watch those aftercoolers because they are finicky and don't last as long as regular aftercoolers.

B-73 Restoration
h67st replied to mattb73lt's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Nothing like getting things cleaned up and new paint on them! I notice your floor looks old...when you built your new shop, did you reuse the old foundation and floor? -
Great video, snowdog! I think the R model captures the spirit of Clint Eastwood in the western movies.

Wah wah wah! I've got The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly on my Hulu watchlist right now. I wonder how many times I've watched this over the years...Speaking of westerns, when they remade True Grit with Jeff Bridges, a lot of people said it was better than the original and The Duke was overweight and out of shape for the original. I watched both, and those folks are full of hooey! The remake was good, but John Wayne was stellar in the first one. My favorite Wayne movie was Big Jake...what about you guys?

Now that's a sharp lineup! -
In order for that H to be worth $6,500, either the cab would have to be rust-free or it would have to be road-ready. I don't think that's the case.

Looks like some rust, especially at the drip rail. Seller says the 237 runs good. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1968-U-Model-Mack-Truck-Single-Axle-Tractor-runs-/132273312470?hash=item1ecc1a92d6:g:MBkAAOSwzVhZd4Hq&vxp=mtr&autorefresh=true

Why can't I post pics?
h67st replied to xdudebrahx's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
One thing I do is send the photos to my computer first ("wifi photo" is a free app that works great), then they go right into the attach box. I hope this helps. -
Wayne, that's a nice-looking Suburban...looks like you have no problem getting around in the snow or mud.
-
I saw this B on ebay with a Cummins...I recognize the fuel shutoff solenoid, but not the valve cover! What Cummins is that? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1956-Mack-/152635252513?hash=item2389c51f21:g:L8oAAOSwW9ZZdNeg&vxp=mtr

66dc75, that is a classic lowboy...love that curved gooseneck. Nice looking trailer.
-
Great pix guys! Montana is a beautiful state. Along with what Truck Shop said, a few years back we rode bikes (the pedal kind) on the Route of the Hiawatha in western Montana...absolutely beautiful country.
-
Yeah, I like skirts myself.
-
Early '80s 3406b was a good motor...if it's been maintained, it should be a nice engine.
