  1. I talked to the owner of that Emeryville at the ATHS conv. in Baltimore,pretty nice guy as I recall,we were talking about how many trucks that were not DRIVEN to the show...................................................Mark

    Mark, I have a picture of a 11 yd Rex concrete truck mount on special built 1962 Emeryville we had 15 of these built for Colonial Sand and Stone! The picture is on this site called "My first mixer" but I don't know how to transfer it over!!! I drove that truck for a couple a years, it was a good truck that pulled good and ran fast with a good old 238 Detroit an a 5+4 double over 89,000 with 11 yds 475 gal of water over head and 100 gal in the drum

  4. If I remember correctly there was a low RR bridge on the direct route off the main road that you have to run around. I don't work out that way often but it is a long strait one road hike to get out there,definetly a place to avoid on Friday afternoons during the summer months

    Yes we used to make a left after the gas station and go around some S turns and come out by the fire house, and when you went into there gate you better get it right cause if you went in the neighbors drive you had a fight on your hands and I do mean a fight! I don't miss the drive back

  5. ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THAT IF CAT GOES BACK INTO THE TRUCK ENGINE BUSINESS THEN THEY SHOULD CLEAN UP ALL THE ACERT STUFF THAT THEY LEFT USE WITH! i STILL HAVE THREE LEFT THAT NO DEALER WANTS ON TRADE UNLESS THEY GIVE YOU NOTHIN FOR THEM!

  6. Don't forget the SOB turncoat Kerry who married the heiress of Heinz Corp... Doesn't Pelosi also have major interests in Dole?

    They're all the same. Cumo in N.Y. privatized the Long Island Power Authority and "awarded" the contract to PSEG whom he and his girl friend own 30% of.... No conflict of interests there says he. Paul[/quote

    That's what I was told about Pelosi an Dole!! So I guess she'll make sure all those pickers have health insurance and min. Wage of 12 bucks per hour

  7. Does anyone know what her and her husband do for a living? Interesting

  8. Polosi gave a speech here in Los Angeles stating that now with Obamacare health care is a right and no longer restricted to the privileged few! This means that those of us that work for a living and have had healthcare are the privileged few! What a croc. I do know quite a few people that are self employed and had there existing insurance canceled due to Obamacare. The best I can figure out is that Obamacare has outlawed the cheap basic insurance that the 20 and 30 year old generation typically has and forced them to buy more expensive insurance to fund the plan.

    Does anyone know what her and her husband do for a living? Interesting

  9. Green Dash I trip leased quite a few loads for Transamerican in Jersey. Muellers Macaroni to Michigan. Because Transamerican was a Union Outfit they would check at the docks for trip leasers. I forgot what the outcome was but money was involved.That was when the union had power. Joe D.

    My uncle Nick was a dispatcher for them when they were in Secaucus years back! Local 560 when a guy named Jack Sheriaden ran the local, was not a good time

  11. Joe,i never heard a bad word about Shendel Greenstein (former owners daughter),my Dad did a lot of trip-lease work for them in the sixties,and had a good many friends leased on with them. that's also the first C-Model I ever saw with a sleeper.............................Mark

    WOW, trip-lease I have not heard that term used in years! When I was a kid my dad did work for a guy in Harrison NJ that my uncle was the disp. for (Spiegel Trucking) They did all of Hartz Mountain's trucking (Trans-Pet) 90% of the work went through a broker @ the Jersey Truck Stop by the name of Tip O'Neil and his daughter. Things got so B/Z back in the day that Izzy the owner bought a Dodge Van and put a guy with a desk and Type wrighter and a check book and did the lease's right at the W-House that they loaded from! But as a kid gust sittin there, I heard and saw things that will forever be branded in my memory (all good) heres a couple, the first time I saw a CB radio was back around 1965? in an O-O's truck with about 5 ant. whips on his tractor, saw an A-C purple engine in a International I think it was? saw my first V-12 in a CO Freightliner and the same guys brother had one with a V-8 turbo Cat that would not stay together! (had a 1693 put in by Cat after the third time) First saw an Automatic in a truck was a Monford Circus Wagon with a load going back west! Also for the first time saw a guy and his wife with a day cab Freightliner V8 71 350 hp Detroit witha big ass body on back witha hitchen an shower an gen set ! This was there home! WOW! but the best was I guess I was about 9 or 10 when this guy was cuttin up this big round pill (4 way cut) and I asked my uncle what kinda candy the guy had?? Thanks for the memories Mark! I'm commin up to the big 60 soon so It's nice to get the old brain stimulated once in a while!

  13. Schumer I wouldn' t was my pee on him... useless p.o.s. and always reelected by the "reality show watching, fat dumb and happy gimmies". Now he is backing a bill for L.I. to limit farm use of nitrogen fertilizer to 1%, you need 20 to 23% to be productive. Less than the landscapers use.

    His quote was " the farmers pollute the ground water, destroy the land and make millions of dollars doing it".

    My farm started in 1917 and I bet a million bucks was never made in the 97 years of farming. L.I. farms produce 45% or more of N.Y.S. total agriculure. Thank god our piddly little farm is for sale. I guess the "smart" people have no clue where theirproduce comes from. Got 10 months left to leave the crap hole state. Paul

    Follow the money! I'll bet this crooked POS is on the take some place! The only thing the guy has ever planted was his ass in a chair in DC ya know the one we pay 4

  15. When they forced us to bring 12,000 up to the front axle all the black top started to groove, sometimes on the NJTP you had to fight to get your truck outta the lane! All there base mix had to be redesigned for the single tire weight! Buy they know better now don't they????

  16. Paul, I posted a shoot load a pictures of Colonial's older mixers on here some place? But so i've been told by the man himself Mr. Dave (Dave Pascerelli) the guy who had a hand in building that truck, they used a Diamond T or Federal cab and in the front they had there Italian fab. guys hand build the front rad. guard that said 'Colonial Special' across the front then they took the largest Horizontal mxer that Jager had to offer, cut it in half and added a section in the center to haul more concrete (I was told later on down the road Jager took them to court and they had to stop doing that). The rear tandems were wider then the front axle a lot wider! the first one had a small Cummins pony motor to run the mixer! I myself have been looking for this truck right after leaving the Astoria shop back in 1971!! I sometimes feel like Indiana Jones lookin for the lost Colonial Special! But any pictures I look at do not have that grill or the tandems, I just hope someone saved one! On one of my posts it says 'My first Mixer' and it's a picture of my 1962 International Emeryville Cab Over with a 11yd Rex horizontal mixer

  17. Coors transport (Coors Beer) had those with the KTA Cummins and the N-400 hp Cummins, does anyone know if they still haul there own beer? I think it was OD or one a the mag. that had a big art about when they never let the beer get warm, cold from the vat to the store even the city trucks had to be ref.

  18. I think they are nuts! Obammamma calls Putin weak for the Ukraine, Sibielous misses how many people are U.S. citizens by 384 million, Reid gave his grand daughter a large Federal Grant a few weeks ago and said it was a gift from America, Sen from Cali who is anti gun gets busted for trying to sell Automatic weapons and Shoulder fired missiles and today Biden says all 31.7 million illegals in his eyes are U.S. Citizens when the cross the border and all the people are worried about is the new Mall down the street.

    What I don't get is why the hell nobody has started impeachment and nobody has gone to jail yet? And I'm serious here what the hell is there a free for all goin on over there! Harry Nancy Eric Barry his wife the world traveler (on our dime) and the dumb ass people in this country put him back in!! And you just wait an see Billery Clinton is gonna be our next pres. if she runs!! and the people will eat up all the bullshit that the Dem. party throws at them and they will love it and vote for her! God help Us
