  1. The Brockway webite has a seperate section for models. There is a possibility that you can find some help on there? Brocky

  5. Fire4t3 Yes, I was at Macungie. Am 6'4" 250 with yellow tint glasses and depending on which day a Brockway or HVTA shirt. Think I remember you, out by the transport parking?? Talked with so many people and am lousy remembering names!! Brocky
  6. Red Horse I have a 2006 F250 with the 6.0 Power Stroke and Ford 5 speed automatic. Strictly stock, no chips or upgrades. Brocky
  7. I would presume that your 12k trailer would handle it OK, if it is long enough to the tractor on. Watch out for front overhang getting into your tailgate. Just be sure you have good synthetic grease in the wheel bearings and the heaviest load range tires you can find to fit and properly inflated. Your F350 will do the job fine. My F250 with a heavy 32ft enclosed gooseneck and Diamond T pick up grosses right at 20,000 and handles like a baby carriage. From South Carolina up 77, 81 and 84 to Springfield with cruise set at 68-70 MPH got 10.8 MPG overall. Brocky

  9. Red Rover: Eddie Lucast in Conn now has possesion of Peter J's H model so it is in good hands. Feel free to contact him if you need pictures of a certain detail. Mackniac: The Associated Transport Brown is in NC and he shows it at local chapter shows. Was at Lincolnton NC last year. Brocky
  10. Daryl Gushee of Maine had several very interesting pieces at the show. He had two tracked vehicles there. the blue Bombideer bus and the 1935 Linn Snow plow.

  16. Big Dog Give Mr. Leon Ledford at call at home 864-639-2027, Cell 864-508-1076. Leon does not have a puter. He has his 76 F model registered in Georgia with insurance thru State Farm. He also probably has Randy Howells phone number who has a B75 registered in Ga. Brocky
  17. An Update The Bickford family has posted an ecellent 35 minute video of Erv giving a tour of his facility on the ATHS Road Kill forum under the topic with his name. A big thank you to the Bickford family, our thoughts and prayers of condolence are with you. Brocky

  19. Other Dog Thanks for adding the picture to my post.. Brocky
  20. Looking good!!! Are you comming to Cortland??
  21. There was one at the ATYHS Virginia-Carolina Foothills chapter show a few years ago. I believe it was from the Ashville NC area?? It was restored by an old Hennis Frt Lines drive and painted and lettered HENNIS. Somebody tell me how to post pictures and I will try to get one up.. Brocky
  22. Leversole Google Fogelsville PA, Trexlertown PA, and Emmaus PA. The majority of the motels are on RT 22 and 309 about 10-15 miles from the show. There are probably camp grounds in the area also..See what Google has to say.. If worse comes to worse I can tell you where there is a nudist camp about 35 miles to the north!!
  23. Big Dog Trucker Toss out some dates you will be in Rebel Territory and how much time you have and we can go to work setting up some Mack viewings. Brocky
  24. We have plenty of them.. When exactly are you going to be down here. Most of the local shows are usually in late spring or early fall as it is just too damn hot to be in an open field during the middle of the summer. If your are in the Greenville SC area my buddy has a 76 F-700 we can go see and have a cuppa coffee. Brocky
  25. Hyrdo-pnumatic clutch??? Was that an air operated hydraulic clutch??? Or a straight air clutch??? Have never seen or even heard of a lever operated air shift system before..Sure would like to look one over as it looks like the clutch could be plumbed into the shift lever with no problem.. I have driven a pusher type school bus with a straight air clutch, took a while to get used to but worked fine.. Just do NOT park it in gear!! This was prior to spring lock brakes so if the air leaked down you were on the move when it started!! Brocky
