Matt, That was about the time I joined both organizations. I would say it is time to put your wife (just saw the word ex) back to work and write another article for both magazines. 😀 When I spoke with Darin, via email, about him writing an article about Dean's LJ truck after I sent in the pictures of it at the Dark Corner show he sorta bounced it back at me to write the article.. A project for me this Fall???

Dean, I would also like to write one on your LJ.. We will have to talk.. Maybe at Dacusville???

Matt, Talk to Darin Burt, the editor of the ATHS Wheels of Time.. Between him and you he can write s story of the restoration and he can accept digital photos with no problem..

Bob What is the red pickup behind him??????

I must have missed this topic earlier??? Here is an R-800 in Tony Champion's, Rockhampton QLD, back lot in August 2015. He has now restored it and their was an article on it in a recent, within the last year, ATCA Double Clutch magazine.

Those blisters may look horrible, BUT try NOT to break them..... They are natures way of helping the burns heal...

About 10 years ago they had a similar mess.. The new name was "Mudcungie" instead of Macungie!!! There was an Army half track there that spent all afternoon getting people out. I heard it cost about $25 to repair it all..

Flying Farmer: Welcome to BMT The pictures are easy, not sure on a phone, but down load them to your computer picture files and then click on choose files and go from there.. Where are you located??? finish your profile..

Got audio but NO video????? By clicking on the three dots on the right end, I got a download item, clicked and it came up in a white box at the left bottom of my screen, then it played the video!!!

Just a thought on your fender problem.. Can you find a 5th wheel lift assembly?? Something like it had when you worked for Mack's??????? Attach the fenders and mud flaps to it .. That would be back to original??? And you could tow another truck to a show??

I have a Verizon flip phone!!!!! Love it...

Did you get in contact with Dean Jenkins in Fairview NC??? He might be able to help you also????

Go over to the Just Old Trucks website for the Sterling info.. Jeff Lakaszcyck and Waren Richardson are Sterling historical guru's..

I know what you mean!!! I can put a face and a truck together, and NOT the name in the middle😂

I guess I did!!!!!! 😀😃 That is why None of my financial or health records are on my computer.. And a flip phone with NO internet access..

Turn off the computer and TV and YOU will get a lot done!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the tip, BUT I DO NOT do Farcebook.. They told me my account had been hacked and wanted a selfie video of my face to continue.. Jeff Lakazcychak posted on JOT that he put 30+ pictures on Farcebook also.

Orange, Contact Dean Jenkins, user name 1961H67, He lives in Fairview NC and has been a mechanic in the Ashville NC area for 50 years. He should know someone with the right lap top??? He owns several Macks, but I doubt if they are electronic????? If needed PM me and I have his email address.

Sorry to hear about another "Mudcungie"!!!!!! Will be looking forward to your Flicker Album after you get home..

Paul, It was the trip of a lifetime... I should have gone back a couple of years later, rented a car, and done Australia at my pace instead of a programmed tour.. PM me your email address and I will send you links to some of the rest.. Everybody said "take Pictures" so I have about 1600!!!

She definitely qualifies for a "Motorboating" experience!!!!

It sure has!!!!!!! To the point my legs and knees will not let me walk any where as much..

For those who might have missed it before here is a link to my Flicker album of Tony's facility. These were taken in Sept of 2015 on the ATHS Down Under Tour.. Click on the first picture to open.. They are in reverse order to how I took them. The maroon "road train" of Macks in front of the shop, not unloaded yet as it had just returned from the Australian Truckies Renunion in Alice Springs, is Tony's "Southern Cross" edition. Later that evening, after dark, Tony lit it up and the 4 letters of MACK on the hood are raised and back lit with white LED lights. On both sides and rear of the bunk the words "Southern Cross" are cut out of a stainless sheet and back lit with red LED lights. My apology's, but my camera was back on the bus by then.

I am not going to be able to make it this year😒. MY wife is still in treatment for her swollen and leaking legs.. Please post plenty of pictures!!!

Harry Thank you for the article on Tony Champion. I had the honor of visiting his facility in 2015 while on the ATHS Down Under tour.. I urge ALL Mack enthusiasts to contact Tony and take a tour of his Gallery. It is truly a one of a kind facility.
