Dennis said I could have this truck if I came and got it.  I have to do that.  It looks a lot worse though

Love the stance and look of it.    It does look on the rough side, but it would definatly look really good on the road.

Pack a lunch and come on up!  It would look good with the other Smith's trucks.

Was at Mack Townsville yesterday and saw this 

A Brockway cabbed Mack, dunno whether to share in Mack or Brockway 

Owner was telling me it was one of two ever Mack built tilt trays built by Mack in Australia

In June of 1967 I took my NYS class 1 drivers road test on a 1953 Brockway 154.. Flat head Continental, 5 speed and air 2 speed. Started at City Hall in the heart of downtown Syracuse!!

My grandfather did rigging and hauling, had an Allied Van Lines franchise, and was the Brockway dealer here in Columbus Ohio. Here's a photo of one of his trucks taken in 1964...you can see the belt-drive tag axle. Next to it is an N400, brand new and ready for delivery.

Super clean 1975 Brockway F761LL.  Born with a 1674 CAT for power.

My 57 B-61 had a belt drive Page&Page axle but it was gone when I got the truck. The brackets were still there but everything else was gone.
