my grandfather was a mechanic there his name was carl temple

hi my name is eric. i have been on here for a year but just used the site for info. i got a 1958 b 61 when i joined the forum. i got the truck to restore as a tribute to my grandfather who passed a few years ago. he worked for baltimore mack for almost 50 years and always told me the b-61 was the greatest truck to work on and was his favorite. he cant help me now but im starting to see what he meant. when we cleaned out his garage i found lots of mack stuff. most of what i found pertains to b-61 like original owners manuals, service manuals, maintence manuals, original sales brouchures, and even some emblems and parts. this was neat because i got to put them on my truck and even though he's not here i guess my grandfather did get to help me work on my truck. i got to go to the trucj show in macungie for the first time this year and it was great. i was at the watts booth when the group picture was taken but didnt think quick enough to get in it. sorry for this being so long but ive really started working on my truck now and figured i mite as well start making some friends.
