Even had brains and eggs on their menu- not that I ever ordered it. Is the place still there? Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

RFCDrum Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 i used to start a month before Englishtown to get the truck ready. It's a lot of work if the truck is working everyday. I know a lot of companies that have mula would take some trucks off the road and do them up. It's nice to have trailer queens I guess. I'm more impressed with a worker myself.

Popular Post Chuck P Posted February 23, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2013 I was waiting for someone to post up an Almasi shot. They were neighbors of ours when I lived in Woodbridge in the early 70's and they had an impressive fleet of DM's back then. My grandfather worked the "clay banks" that now reside under the Woodbridge Center Mall and Almasi hauled a lot of that clay to Valentine Brick.That shot of the CL is great. If I'm not mistaken, that was the one that had the full side fairing with the third lift axle tucked in there. They always had a spotless fleet. Pic is taken from there website.As a side note, A good friend of mine Billy Johnson (retired Metuchen cop) drove their Superliner lowboy for a few years. 3 Quote "If it's all the sime to you...

RFCDrum Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Hey Chuck I have more Almasi pics. If I remember the Cl is a tandem. It does have the fairings. I think 50 or 52 rears. Maybe it's a tri now?. That's interesting about the clay. You would think most bricks came from down south. Cheers, Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Chuck P Posted February 23, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2013 A few vintage shots that I pulled off of the Almasi site. John Almasi and my grandfather were good friends and worked together alot up into 1976 when he retired. My grandpop would pronounce it "ALLMOSHY". I guess it was a Hungarian thing. The first pic was from the clay banks. 5 Quote "If it's all the sime to you... I'll droyve that tankah" Max Rockatansky (The Road Warrior) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The banks of the Raritan River were very rich with clay deposits. Fisher Brick in Sayreville was huge at the time and Valentine Brick (A.P. Green) in Woodbridge produced a lot of the fire brick used in kilns and high temperature linings. Quote "If it's all the sime to you...
