Central PA Macks
daveigou replied to farmer52's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Damn, and I won't be there Friday. Friday is my day over at Pennsylvania Truck Centers (Wrightsville, Pa) along route 30 on the west shore of the Susquehanna river. I'll make sure they let the dogs out at Gerhart's tomorrow. -
Looks like the one just sold at Rtchie Brothers, Northeast Md last month

Damn, I forgot about that one. I got to come on here to find out what's back there.

Here are a couple from 2009 Gerhart show, a great A something survivor dump truck, and a fine A54T tractor.

I think you mean J. Robert Bazley from Pottsville, Pa. He had several Sterlings. I don't think this one is chain drive, and I know he had a single axle that was a Timken worm drive

ConMet PreSet Plus hubs to be standard on Peterbilt models
daveigou replied to kscarbel's topic in Trucking News
I was talking about new truck orders. I've been away from sales since 2010, but they were an available unpublished option on certain axles for several years before that. -

Another truck that I always had a soft spot for was the F and T series Super Duty Fords. This T950 is owned by George Tackaberry taken in Athens Ontario.

Here's a truck that I owned for awhile and was fond of, a 1957 Diamond T 830 tractor. It had a 501 cubic inch International with 4 bbl carb, 5 spd OD & 2 speed axle.

Some Superliner Pics.
daveigou replied to jackb61sx's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
A Kinard Superliner from York, Pa. Kinard ran a number of V8 Superliners, some were 4 axle tractors that they used to haul armored verhicles out of Bowen-Mcglaughlin (BMY) plant in York. -
Since you guys are on Diamond Reo, here's a fine Raider owned by Lloyd Welk, a milk hauler from Paradise Pa.

huh, did you say something? It did have a small Riker under the cab. The pump had a few shims in it, don't know how they got there, it smoked like a freight train. A new chrome stack lasted about half a day. At night it put out a nice flame

Here are a couple of Roger Gerhart's DC103 Acar. Truck had a mighty 250 Cummins, 5 X 4 trannys, and SUDD Rockwell rears. It sure was a looker in it's day, and I spent my fair share of time behind the steering wheel. You earned you money in the seat of that old girl. The loads pictured are 631 Cat scrapers and a DH35 Northwest.

While we're on the subject of those of us that are less proficient, can somebody tell me please, what does mean? Is this some secret code word that you have to be 12 years old to know? Please take pity on me and help! What am I missing here?

W71 Mack Parts
daveigou replied to shermentib61's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
A friend of mine just gave me this picture of his dad's W71, a real rare truck in Pennsylvania. The W71 was sold new by Hollinger Mack (now Truck Centers of Pennsylvania), turned out one of the guys there still had the chassis record. The truck was owned by John Haines of Mt Joy, Pa. He was a local produce hauler, he bought it new the way you see it, and later added a sleeper. If you look close at the trailer, you can see two kingpins, he could close couple it to run certain states that would not allow that long a combination. It had the 275 hp supercharged Cummins, 5 X 3 transmissions. Took a real driver to manhandle something like this! -
Heavy Duty Mack's ? !
daveigou replied to REOGasMackDiesel's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
All right, I'll stick my neck out here. Looks like some kind of a hybrid, Hendrickson springs and hangers with a Mack walking beam. Looks like 60" or better spacing.
