  1. Beautiful scenery. It looks more like Christmas than in the DC area. We had 70 degrees and rain all day.
  2. I just got around to looking at the AACA magazine for Nov/Dec. There is a story about a nicely restored '64 B67 pulling a travel trailer from Murfreesboro, TN (owners home) to Hershey this past Fall. There are just a couple of pictures of the truck and no info about it's specs. Just curious if anyone else saw the story or knows the owner.

  3. That makes me cold just looking at it.
  4. Very nice. Looks like it doesn't need as much love as Mater. Ditto on no plowing.
  5. Very nice.
  6. Welcome. It shouldn't take too long to find the right Mack.
  7. Glad to hear you are out and back at it.
  8. I got a couple of the cards and also emails. I remembered this marketing program from the last time. I responded then and got the heavy handed pitch. One of the automobile clubs has also done this.
  9. When I clicked on the picture to enlarge it took me to a photo bucket string of about 50 or 60 Mack (mostly Bs) pictures. Really cool.
  10. Thanks for the news Vinny. Bests wishes for a speedy recovery for Mike.
  11. The truck does look good in the pictures. I think the big negative that holds the price down is the brakes not working and the explanation of owner dis-assembly and not being able to get it back together right. It's like "ran when parked or last driven". If it is a simple fix and the seller doesn't want to screw with it and gets realistic with the price it could be a buy.
  12. I just read the AACA online newsletter and their trivia question was, "what was the name of Mack's first truck?". Here is their answer: The Manhattan was the Mack brothers' first truck. Introduced in 1905, the five-ton truck was designed to haul commodities such as coal, building materials and food stuff. The driver's seat was over the engine. Mack's first commercial vehicle was a bus built in 1900 for sightseeing in New York. Source: Automotive Milestones: Trivia of a Most Unique Machine
  13. Definitely a fine looking example of one of Mack's greatest.
  14. Thanks for the great detective work getting "the rest of the story" to go along with the picture. Sad to hear the driver, so young, didn't survive.
  15. Nice truck. We are ready for another ride.
  16. Sweet! Hope it is ready by Macungie time.
  17. I've got to go with nuts too.
  18. Nice truck. Glad it is getting some love.
  19. There's that R rollback earning it's keep again. Good project.
  20. It is sad to see the old masters leaving. He was definitely an icon. I think his name was mentioned in about every issue of Hot Rod Magazine back in the day.
  21. Here is a link; http://www.purplewave.com/search/?query=mack&type=upcoming&geo_search_type=all&zipcodequery=ZIP+Code&submit=Search
  22. Neat truck. It also seems to have a later model steering wheel.
  23. Welcome. It is always nice to see such a deserving truck find a good home.
  24. Great video! Congratulations.
