Ran Across An Old Picture

[ajt3138]

i drove this mack as a delivery truck for our lumber yard. that was almost 30 years ago. it had a knuckle boom behind the cab for unloading materials. the truck was a diesel. it had a 5 speed with 2 speed rear end i believe. i remember how heavy the front end was with the motor and boom up to the front. it wasnt always ideal for winter travel from what i remember. it served us well for many years though. as a youngster i seemed to feel comfortable driving the different vehicles that we acquired. we had another mack at the same time--- its the B-61 that i talked dad into letting me keep and its presently under restoration.

I used to see those running around town pullng a trailer for Overnite and Smith's Transfer. I wish I had taken some pictures of them as they are all gone now!
