Yeah my hands are kind of full at the moment.....LOL. But where exactly along the NE Extension is this, you never know- wrong turns have been made before in the name of curiosity. The logo on that COE A-Car looks like it may be an old PECO logo but not 100% sure.

JOSEPHINE RUTH YARDUMIAN 4/24/2014 at 1524. 5.1lbs 18" length. 6 weeks early (Due date 5/31/14.) "EXTRA SMALL" The events of the last 36 hours were a sucker punch that we had no clue was coming. The wife has a whole slew of medical issues that I wont bore you with here, but they caught up with her the past 2 weeks; but especially on Easter Sunday when she had to go to the ER but they kicked her loose after a few hours. Then, on Tuesday night she was having trouble again (extremely high blood pressure....) and she called the OBGYN who had her come into the ER again. They decided to admit her for observation. Then on Weds afternoon it was decided for her health to "evict the tenant." Around 8pm Weds Night they started the induction and damn near 20 hours of labor later, we are the parents of a baby GIRL. Everyone is doing fine, with the exception of Dad who is shell-shocked at the thought of a girl after having had three boys. (We did not find out the sex of any of them until they were born.) MACUNGIE 2014 will of course be her first truck show!!!! Here's a pic of Mommy and Extra Small Here's a pic of a proud Daddy and Small, Medium, Large and Extra Small. Note the look of "Holy SHIT I have a DAUGHTER" on my face.

There is so much wrong information in that article I don't know where to begin. Poorly researched and written.

Try the Brockway folks at the Museum in Cortlandt, NY perhaps they know of a Brocky guy in your area that may want it. Also there is a Brockway Facebook page, you might try posting there as well.

Has anyone here ever obtained an associates or bachelors degree online? What was your experience like? What is your degree for? Anything you would do differently? Am I insane for considering trying to get a degree in Disaster/Emergency Management at the age of 40, with three kids (well, four in another month or so......) I have never gone to college in my life and was not the greatest student in high school. But I have always done well in topics that interested me. Yes I know there are a lot of prerequisites and elective classes I will have to take, that's absolutely in the decision making process. Right now I am just pondering. I also would need to line up the money.....cash or grants or .....shit.....loans.......But I think this is something that I really want to do- to better myself mentally and professionally....it's also a pathway to more coin in my pocket. Chime in, want to hear your thoughts. Thank you Lads.

I don't see the kickstand? Or is this the model with the extra heavy right side frame rail ????

Someone has way too much time on their hands but I was pissing my pants laughing........

It was the SOUSAPHONE. And I divide my time between the criminal underworld of the Lehigh Valley (I sell Waukesha engine and FWD parts out of the back of a black caddy) and the Hellertown School for Wayward Nuns.

I don't ride motorcycles and was never really interested in them but that thing looks bad as hell!!!!!!

joemac- there is a good source within throwing distance- Try GL Sayre over in Conshy!!!! I know they used to have a lot of NOS stuff. They also helped me find a headliner for the R-Model I/H cab on my FWD.

We had them all open, but it got down to 28 here last night so we closed all the windows.

Hey, Goofball......Are you bringing the Tiller? If so let me know and I'll save you a space next to a REAL truck........Just kidding.....Come park next to, and party with us!!!! I bring the truck out on Friday AM and park it there overnight, Macungie is only 20 miles from my house. If you come out Friday make sure you sign up for the ATCA "Family Reunion" dinner.

HAH!

I always ask them to see their permit to solicit and they turn around and beat feet down the path.

This was by far the worst year I have ever seen, and I have been going for 2o +/- years. Attendance was the lowest I have ever seen- before the intrawebs (and especially eBay) you couldn't move in the place- you were shoulder to shoulder with everyone else. There were many many vacant vendor spaces......That was unheard of 10 years ago when they were turning vendors away.....No one would budge on their prices, many overpriced pieces (and I mean WAY overpriced.......) and yes it is becoming a t-shirt/patch/blue light show. Did meet up with a few friends and went to help the young ladies working their way though Nun College. Forgot to tell Yarnell we were going over and remembered to message him when we were halfway there. I think next year I might just save the admission fee and just go see the Nun Candidates instead.

There are tons of listings of car/truck shows on the interwebs. Just google "Car Show Listings" and maybe your state or area you should get hits on a bunch of listings

Sounds like yer clutch shit the bed. I'd yank it and send it out to be reman. What kinda truck? Make/Model of tranny & clutch? Let this be a learning experience.....Never install a used component that is a critical part of the drive line. My father always used to say "Putting in a used part is like having sex with a lot lizard- sure it might work and it might be ok, but you never know what might happen or what you are getting after the fact." It's OK to buy a used component but always get them rebuilt/reman!!!!

The Gubmint is backing off............ http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/04/12/federal-agency-pulls-back-in-nevada-ranch-standoff-but-legal-fight-remains/

http://www.myfoxphilly.com/story/25223018/-head-on-crash-with-cement-truck#ixzz2yb3ptJzB That's gonna leave a mark...........

You'd care if you planted your seed while doing the deed!

That is AWESOME!!!! I know you live on the west coast but if I got down on my knees and begged, would you consider bringing that to Macungie in June?

I saw this trailer parked in a vacant lot on Route 309 in Quakertown, Pa. I guess the guy was in a hurry and he couldn't park it proper-like? I saw these two fancy big Mack firetrucks I saw a big Mack truck I saw a bigger Mack truck next to a Small. Small approves. I saw the Ghostbusters headed northbound on the Pa Turnpike I-476 at about the 28 yardstick. An FWD with a Budd cab...... And this girl flagged me down, she needed a ride to the Winfall Nun College. Said some guy in a big red non-Mack truck went flying by her even though she showed some leg.....Said she didn't wanna ride in a Paccar anyways........

Heard this on the radio this morning here in the Allentown area. http://www.mcall.com/news/breaking/mc-mack-hiring-macungie-plant-20140407,0,2928533.story

Joe I gotta believe you know my father and maybe even me, too. My father is Sam, from Bryn Athyn. Howard nicknamed me "Baby Buddha" when I was knee high to my pop. He would run fire calls with them all the time- in fact was one of only a few guys from outside the company that was allowed to drive. When I was old enough and a member of Bryn Athyn I was also "thrown on the rigs" when the tones dropped.

The tire dressing does look better I agree but it leaves that sticky residue.......
