The Wellington Mack will be returning to New England. I don't want to get into politics about what did or did not transpire between the local chapter and the national chapter since it occurred years prior to me finding the common passion we all share amongst us, which is trucks. However I would like to say that we all admire, collect and preserve the history of trucks for future generations. Everyone of us one way or another, contributes to this preservation of trucks and history. With that said, the truck will reside back in the original place it had been for years, when it was first left for generations to admire. It will be at the Haul of Fame Musuem in Canterbury, Ct. The Truck will from time to time be loaned to other museums that desire to display it, as well as the Mack Musuem for all to enjoy. It will be brought to truck shows and events as well. This Truck is an iconic piece of American history, especially for all those who sacrificed their lives during WW II so that we could live freely in this great country. It truly deserves to be seen by all. I'm proud to say The Wellington, will stay in this country for all to enjoy, and in the New England area as the original owners had desired. I like to give a big thanks to the Fox family for wanting keep history alive, for future generations. I'd also like to thank the Yaworski family from Ct for originally housing the Wellington where it resided in New England for many years and taking it to shows. I would also like to thank Gary Mahan from NJ, for fixing the issues on the motor, housing the truck and taking it to shows, and a special thanks to the Mack Musuem for displaying this iconic piece of History for all to see. But most of all thanks to all of you, for keeping these trucks and history alive and well and preserving them for future generations to admire. Without all of you, most of the truck history would have been lost forever.

Thanks

Im going to post before and after pics of FN tom or wed will be under a new Thread!

Thinking of bringing that and The FN we just finished !

No not a lot down in that area, hope to see more down there though. We are opening a location about 100 miles from you in Hinesville/Savanah area

Lol i even tried special ordering them ! no luck lol

Lol yes exactly same colors , is always good thing lol The granites are going great ordered another 25 of them

Thanks, not one of my typical chain drive purchases but definitely a super nice and rare truck with the Lanova in it

My New LJT with a lanova diesel on its way to Ct from California.

Welcome back and great job on the weight loss!

The Haul of fame is still open on wed, most of the original stuff is gone, but still quite a bit of stuff there and I keep a lot of my trucks there too

Gary Mahan has that truck now!

Yes I saw that truck in person few years back looked nice then, maybe I will have to buy it lol

The BX was sold couple years back to a collector in Mass (can't say name with out permission) don't know why still up on website. I have bought couple trucks from Brian from Josephs Equipment. He does have tons of trucks there and always seems to be willing to show you or let you look around. !

lol yeah maybe Jim

Hey !977 Vega can you pm me their number Ill restore that truck , Kinda cool

I just bought one couple weeks ago, waiting on getting it delivered now. It was a lot less than the Mack Jr I bought though.

Yeah hard to find but I also heard getting a FJ was impossible too as well as buying the FH from the person I bought it from impossible too lol so Some times luck and persistence changes impossibilities! I think all of us on here love to make the dream come true of making the impossible, possible, no matter what our particular favorite model is !

Definitely the Goal Jim !

Thanks Vlad

Lol Luckily Im not married, but might have been cheaper to have been lol

Well its definitely on pare or little more actually then the Mack Jr I bought and just as hard to find

I will get you some up this week for sure !

Lol yeah I wish either the truck or the tires cost that little lol but one can always hope to find one out there somewhere sitting quietly that one could buy like that , what a dream come true that would be lol, might even be able to put in some AC then Jim lol

Lol thanks, yes add the FJ to the FH FN FT FW
