DailyDiesel Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I don't know, I was there on Saturday. There was also a nice Granite roll off from Ben Weitsman that showed up later in the afternoon. If only this darn Astro hadn't jumped into the shot. 2 Quote www.dailydieseldose.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFCDrum Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 John Mauro's 87 Autocar that he bought from Gennaro with only 10,000 miles on it was at this show as a chassis. I just saw the pic on Diesel Dose Blog. John sold this truck to Ted Bolkema. Nobody here got a pic of it? It's got a 425 Cat which Ted had redone with ceramic pistons blueprinted etc. 13 double over. 58 rears on 65 Hendrickson. It had a Steelfab body on it. There is a pic that Jack Byrnes Hill took at Florham Park years ago. It is on his Flickr account so I won't post it here. This truck was badass. It sat in a garage for years rarely used then they sold it to John. Anyway there you go. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I remember two A cars there with steel fenders, both were red. think one had a box and the other was a cab and chassis with a rusty chrome air cleaner. was parked next to the orange Pompa Bros Granite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFCDrum Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Yes thank you this is it. I hope they bring this truck to it's old glory. I know Ted pestered John for a long time to sell it to him and gave him an ungodly amount of money for her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 that's the one I was thinking of. was sittin right on the bench next to it when he pulled it in. sure has a LOW gear in her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFCDrum Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 That's why it had the double over in her. John didn't mess with the motor too much since it was already a 425. The first thing Ted did was soup the shit out of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
