On the later trucks, it's called the tractor protection valve (Bendix TP-3). Maybe the older trucks it's just called a relay valve?

It must have been right around 1968, you can find several photos of that nose style on the web. When you look for 1967 Brockways, you don't see many (possibly these were built in '67 but maybe titled as '68 models).

I have seen several questions about the beige interior paint over the years, but haven't seen anyone come up with a code number for it.

If you hover your pointer over the web address of the auction in the top bar, right click and click on "copy". Then when you type your message on here, just right click and click on "paste".

On the 673 motor it has a dowel so you can pull the pump without retiming. I don't know about the later engines.

I don't know how the price of a Brockway compared with other trucks, I figured since they were hand-built they would cost more. The poem calls them cheap. Pretty good poem!

Elevator bolts. We used them when we built roll-up trailer doors, they pull down almost flush with the surface (except Apitong is pretty hard, sounds like Matt is going the correct route).

Since I got the Mack "done", I started tinkering around with the Brock. Check out this video, and then watch the "will it start" video after it.

Really interesting article about the Powerliner. At the end they mention an experimental Hall-Scott 2181 c.i. gas engine--probably had to pull a gas tanker to keep it fed! https://www.curbsideclassic.com/blog/trucks-and-heavy-equipment/truck-history-1973-freightliner-powerliner-its-giant-1150-cubic-inch-19l-600-hp-cummins-kta-600-was-the-largest-diesel-in-production-highway-trucks/

The s/n is 3071, unit number 160.

1959 H67T with turbo 673 and duplex, former Ralph Smith truck. The cab is rusted beyond repair, but the chassis looks good. I have no idea what condition the engine is in. The truck appears to be complete. The title is signed but not notarized so I don’t know how easy it will be to get transferred to your name. Located in central Ohio, I have a tractor to help load but it would not push this truck up steep ramps. $800 or best offer. I had this posted as an H67ST, but actually it's an H67T. I would say my memory ain't what it used to be, but it never was that good.

1961 H67T with 673 and duplex. The cab has a lot of rust-through but the cab frame is good and solid. This truck hasn’t been on the road for 20 years so it will need a complete restoration. The engine “ran when parked” in 2007. There were frame rail extensions welded to the back for a tag axle. The truck is complete, and I have a lot of extra parts that go with it. The guy who sold me the truck signed the back of the title but didn’t get it notarized so I don’t know how easy it will be to get transferred to your name. I also have a 1959 H67T with a bad cab but it has a 673T, 22” hubs, and the frame looks better on it so you could use the best parts from both trucks. Located in central Ohio, I have a tractor to help load but it would not push this truck up steep ramps. $1,500 firm.

The guys at Rome are excellent, I got pivots, arms, blades, etc. from them. They have lots of NOS stuff at good prices.

Looking good so far! 1. No, painting the hubs won't hurt sliding the rims on. 2. I took my brake shoes to a local brake shop and they relined them. If you have one in your area that would be easier than retrofitting. If your cams and slack adjusters are good, you'll probably want to replace the bushings. The brakes on these trucks are amazingly similar to the brakes on a new truck.

That's a fine looking Autocar, I like the dual headlights.

I have 3 NOS Dietz markers for flat roofs (L, H, F, etc.). 2 are red, one amber (glass lenses). The chrome has some very light corrosion, but a very nice shine. The bases are in new condition, comes with foam mounting gaskets. $80 plus shipping. Edit: I used some Mother's chrome polish on them and the chrome looks great.

I have 5 KD517 markers and one Napa VP63 (identical to the 517s). 4 of them are painted silver, 2 are chrome. One has a glass lens, others are plastic. These are not in perfect shape, but very nice (chrome isn't too good). The foam mounting gaskets are a little sketchy. I also have a bunch of used parts you can have if you buy these. $80 plus shipping for all.

They want $1,500 for 40 gal., $1,550 for 50 gal. I'm sure there's also shipping charges.

Watts has shutterstats for $250. https://wattstruckcenter.com/shop/b-model-parts/b-model-mack-engine-transmission-and-driveline/shutterstat

My shutterstat says 180° but my gauge says 190° when they open. At first they didn't open at all but I took apart the shutterstat and found corrosion inside, cleaned it up and lubed the pin and now it works well. There is no tstat ('58 model 673 NA).

It may be stupid to quit college and work on trucks, but if I had to do some college-type jobs day after day I'd have to hurt myself! At least when I was a mechanic I enjoyed what I was doing.

I like not having to buy batteries every few years...they ain't cheap. Plus if you run out of air and there's another truck nearby you just hook up the gladhand.
