Bitter-Sweet Superliner

Sorry to hear of the sad circumstances of your getting this truck,I have to agree though,getting an "In Memory Of" on the truck would be a good thing to do. I'd put one on each side of the cowl. We see that done often in the Biker community to honor fallen brothers.

Superdog's right though-Harry would want you to drive the truck and enjoy it as he would have.

Sorry to hear the way your story ends as others have said. If someone needs a set of the stainless headlight gaurds, I have one set of Bores Mfg. still in the box. A good friend of mine had Bores make 3 sets for him two years ago. he used to pair and I bought the last set for my Superliner. ended up selling the truck before I could restore it, so if someone would like a new set of Bores rock gaurds,you can reach me at 603-743-8080. Price will be what I paid, $300. plus shipping, thanks, Bill

Sorry to hear about your friend. Sometimes life sucks.

As it has been said many times; life is short, enjoy the time God graced you with. And don't tempt fate by not using the right tools when you are working under a rig.

Thank you... My good freind joe.. He also loved his Mack trucks

That's some nice job on the pinstripes/lettering on your truck Joey! very sharp and a fitting tribute! i'm glad personally to see people keeping the "Jersey Look" going on trucks,grew up with some SHARP trucks in South Jersey and I really like the old school pinstripes and lettering,just don't see it as much anymore!....................................Mark

i was thinkn same thing.. How it has changed!! I couldn't believe murals on trucks.. Everything clear coated!! Lifelike murals.. It's unbelievable !! I could never afford that..and even if I could.. I agree with you I prefer old school striping all day long!!

It started as a E6 350. No idea what it is now. I can tell you it will walk away from any 350 I've ever driven. 15 speed and air ride. It runs 65 mph at about 1400 rpm.

Thanks, So E6-350hp is stronger than other 350hp brands and this truck runs 65mph at 1400, how much at 2100 rpm?

Just a WAG :idunno: . If I had the tire diameter and trans. and axle ratios I could give you a solid number. ;)

my freind jack says that is Glenn's nephew and he learned from him?? I don't know them him that well..I'm sure you would know him.. He does all Breen trucks.. John Mauro .. Veneiro... Etc.. Etc... Is that the same guys??

Yes that is Glenn's nephew. In fact he was going to do some of my work when Glenn went off suddenly when he had his breakdown. I never met Paul but his work is just as good as Glenn's. John Mauro used to use Mr J years ago. I didn't know who did Breen's work. Here's my new logo Glenn did for me that will be the basis of all the lettering on the trucks. $650.00 was a bargain! I was thinking more like $1200.00.

That looks great!! I like the shield on top.. To me it has a very strong professional look!! So then Glenn is still painting?? I watched Paul all day as he striped and lettered my truck.. He was there over 8 hours.. It was really neat to watch.. I thought more too!! I said to my freind if he had said$1500.. I wouldn't have blinked an eye.. So are you jus changing your logo??
