Chuck Do you have a picture of the Brockway behind the B-61 Mixer?? Looks to be painted the same as the mixer??

Jason Primary answer: Sunrise to Sunset In actuality 7-8 AM till 5-6 PM. I think the picnic is about 5 PM. You should be able to find your filter. This flea market has a lot more parts than most shows. If you do not see one ask some of the vendors who might as they are apt to have one still at home and not enough room to load it to the show.

Ray Good pictures!! Thanks for the memories... Had a cousin who lived there for 25 years and visited her several times.

Here are a couple more pictures of the Brockway At Cortland in 2010

I will arrive Macungie noonish on Thurs.. The TK stop will depend on my daughters orders for Thur nite dinner??? Have signed up for the Fri nite picnic. Sat I will have to play by ear as the daughter and SIL will probably bring all 4 kids over. I posted the BMT picture time and place on the Just Old Trucks site also.. If you participate, The JOT picture is Sat at 10 AM at Eddy Lucast's KBS paint sales booth. Brocky

Great Find!! I drove a 1950 Walter for the Town of Hastings, Oswego County back in the late 60's. Sure would like to have one down here to scare the Hell out of these rednecks..

Yardo You just have to move a tad bit further out in the boondocks where you can build a BIG, BIGGER, BIGGEST garage.. Brocky

Thanks for the pictures.. Always look forward to you weeks travels. In your first picture you even found a good old Brockway..

Maint 1 There is no problem dropping a trailer in the back lot. If you go to the map on the last page of the yellow section of Double Clutch you will see the field next to the RR tracks marked "Transport Parking".. This is on grass so a couple of 2X6-8's under the dolly legs will not hurt.

OK!! So how close to the good old 327 is this 5.3????

I am with Mike. It looks like it is in good shape.. I would just give a good cleaning and show it as is--- a SURVIVOR!!--- Possibly put a mixer or dump body back on it?? Brocky

Jim Thanks for reminding me ATHS has all the back issues online now. Looks like I have 20 years of back issues to read on rainy days. Brocky

Couple of more

Here are a few pictures of our show in conjunction with a Family Farm Day show in Greer SC

Nice Pictures Thanks for sharing them Would take the 61 Chevy with decent wheels.

Vlad Thank you for the pictures.. It is great to be able to see your countryside and villages from a personal perspective rather than a tourist info site. Questions: In the last picture of your first post, Is that large beast a rocket launcher?? and the ZIL dump truck,Does it have a 1956 Ford cab?? Thanks again Brocky

Paul We are supposed to be in Townville for lunch at the Billabong Sanctuary on Wed Sept 2nd, 2015. Does not say how long we will be there as it says will will drive on to Airlie Beach that afternoon. with luck here is a link to the itinerary: http://forums.aths.org/Attachment29867.aspx

Vlad I am sure there is a way you could join us.. The Tony Champion private Mack collection is one of the stops on the tour. see link below in a post to Paul that shows the schedule. The contact is: Stefanie Anton email santon@cruiseplanners.com I am sure she can come up with a way for you to fly from Moscow instead Los Angles.

Did he have that at Macungie a few years ago???

The ATHS is sponsoring a two week tour of Australia in August of 2015 which will include 3 days at the Road Transport Hall of Fame Reunion in Alice Springs. I am planning on participating and look forward to meeting some of the BMT "Down Under" crew at either Alice Springs or at some of the private collections on the East coast between Townville and Melbourne.

Bobby J The original "house engine" was Continental gas..In the mid to late 50's they added Cummins as their first diesel, then in the early to mid 60's Detroits. I do not know when exactly Cats became an option? Aussie Paul By the pictures and topics on justoldtrucks.com, Brockways were imported to Australia starting in the 20's and have continued ever since. Ed Edminston of Dubbro is probably the "down under" Brockway expert if you have a way of contacting him.

Bobby That picture was taken in the Design / Engineering shop. There is a whole series of these pictures over on brockwaytrucks.org with different grilles, bumpers, and headlight combos.

Mike Maybe I am having CRS?? But was thinking there was a yellow Huskiteer fire truck at Mucungie 2012 that said Boyertown on it??? Went back thru my Macungie pictures and did not see it..

Here is a 550 (??) that is owned by the Brockway Truck Preservation Assn. There is another, I think 527, from Mike Yarnell's area which I do not have a picture of.

Paul The blue one in your picture is what went into production as the 527 and 550 low cab forward Huskiteer medium duty truck. Since the picture is with another prototype it is possible that the picture was taken in the Design / Engineering shop. The one that looks like a G model Mack that Daily Diesel posted at the top of the page was appearantly discarded as no one has ever seen one beyond this picture. The red one is is one of the prototypes assembled to be a new introduction conventional in 1978. When Mack closed the doors in the spring of 1977 that prototype went on to become the Superliner.. There is a whole thread on this truck on the Brockway site and also the Huskidrive site, if anyone knows where it is today it would be Peter Grimm or Tom Millard.
