1939 Mack FJ Heavy Tractor
Brocky replied to j hancock's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Jim, Thank You.. Mr Saunders collection does some fine pieces. BUT I personally think he over does the Bling!! There was not that much chrome in that era, especially on working trucks?? -
CG, Not entirely.. The Triple Nickel is a lot smaller than a 8-71 or 903..
-
The Red Head must be keeping him busy????
-
I have a Brockway 358 with a V8 engine out in the barn.. Cummins 504 cubic inch.. the same engine as the 555 "Triple Nickel" but with a 1/2 inch shorter stroke.. Notorious for breaking cranks in hard work.. Good for a hobby truck.

Thank you KS.. I Have been up to this weekend celebration several years and The Brockway Preservation Assn are great people who work hard for this show.

Tom That Carter Spartan 100 still exists. I believe it was the first new tractor that the late Ed Carter bought for his trucking business.. Here it is at the 2016 Special Olympics Convoy on a trailer. The Pete pulling it is also I think Ed's first Pete with his grandson, John, driving it??

Carolina Freight also had about 37 Brockway cabovers (Basically the Mack F model) 225 Cummins and 10 speed. 11k steers and 38k drives

Jim Aaron Benito over on JOT can probably give you some answers to a lot of questions about it. -
KBS has a rust killer and clear coat that would preserve it. Go to Eddy Lucast on Just Old Trucks.com for details.

The ATHS Palmetto Upstate Chapter has gotten word that there will be a truck show on Sept 15th before the race at Anderson Speedway, Williamston SC.. Several of us are planning to attend. Possibly I will see you there??

Very Interesting.. I enjoyed my trip Down Under very much.. BUT, BUT, Ya'll still have not learned to drive on the correct side of the road!!!
-
Blackdog Thank you for the info.. have forwarded it to him.. He hit a big rock at the end of his driveway.. Not his daily driver, wheel is definitely bent by the block of wood, so is putting on spare to see if it is the one and cures his vibration. Will go from there. Yuppie kids and their big toys!!!
-
Hat, thank you.. That is the info I was looking for..
-
Thank You FWD!! That is exactly what I was asking.
-
My son in law thinks he has bent a wheel on his 3500 Dodge Ram dually. Is there a reputable Truck Tire Shop in the Hartford / New Haven / Waterbury are he can take it to to have it checked out?? He lives in Cheshire and works in New Haven. Thanks in advance for any info Brocky

Thoughts on a 168” wheelbase?
Brocky replied to seyser's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Not unusual!! In the R model era there were still a lot of length law considerations as well as a lot of R models were in day cab / short haul vocational usage. -

YES!! I am sorry that I did not include the word Macungie.. The Just Old Trucks website picture is at 11 AM at Eddy's KBS Paint booth. These pictures always make a good time to put a face with a name from the websites.
