Coca Cola LJ Mack colors
The Rubber Duck 006 replied to 1961H67's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
There's 3 kinds of Rouge green,brown,and white also 3 buffing wheels green,yellow,and white. That's what I use. Also if the stainless is heavy with rust I use WD40 and steel wool and it turns out pretty good. -
Nothing yet. I'm gonna try and have my Momma go to the BMV and title department maybe tomorrow.

Would love to have them old trucks -
I can't actually remember him saying what motor was in it. but I do know he had to replace the crank shaft in it once. He had a local fab shop build a engine stand for it and the local junk yard owner Army came over with one of his engine pickers and helped take it out. My Grandpa also said that Ol' Green Hornet pulled like a Freight train and blew black smoke all the way.
-
Oh I assure you he loved all 3 of his trucks. He's where I got my love for old trucks from.
-
Hopefully will know something about the truck next week. My Momma us going to the BMV and the Title Department to see if they can find the original registration or perhaps the Title.
-
I'm going to try and research the plate number and see what I come up with.
-
If Google is Correct on the pictures I've found of other Brockways. The truck looks to be a 1964 Brockway 257.
-
I unfortunately don't have any Paperwork on the truck and my Grandpa passed away about 6yrs ago. I wish I would've found this forum when he was Still alive 😢 😔. I believe this truck had a Detroit in it and Had a Joe dog tandem set up on the rear.
-
I'd appreciate that.
-
Sounds good thanks for the information 👍
-
Sorry to hear this. Didn't know him but still sad when a loss of life occurs.
-
Boy I sure would love to find one
-
I wish I knew what year the truck was. I would love to find another and make a replica. I've already named my 2015 Mack chu613 "The Green Hornet" in Memory of my Grandparents and I'm having a custom name plate made to hang on the bottom of the grille but to find an exact model truck would mean the world to me.
-
Yeah this truck had the Button tuck interior and Chromeated radio that hung from the ceiling. It was sweet
-
Unfortunately because of Some Fly by night drivers my Grandparents ended up having to sell the trucks off around the late 70's. The Brockway was the last truck sold and it was used by a guy in Buckland,Ohio as a dump truck until the frame rusted in two and the truck had to be scrapped.

The Second lady is my Grandmother and the 3rd is My Mother.
-
Found pictures of my Grandfather's Brockway "THE GREEN HORNET" not sure on the model or any other specs on it but here she is. He hauled steel for Brada Miller back in the 60's
-

-
