I have Montville's "The living legend of the highway" of 1979, brobably a different edition. Haven't read it completey though.

Many thanks. A little note - what's about Macungie plant? I think it's not the same as the Allentown one. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

E-bay find again, no connection. Not cheap but looks in a good shape. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mack-Chrome-Grille-1936-50-EH-EJ-EM-EQ-ER-and-ES/221093797924?_trksid=p5713.m2061&_trkparms=aid%3D333005%26algo%3DRIC.FIT%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D358%26meid%3D4084232821277649980%26pid%3D100041%26prg%3D1

Cool item and twice a cool description. Any plans for a tank, Mike?

I used to observe such an effect in the cold shed, temperature here jumps over the freezing point many times during the winter. The last time it was -18 Celsias for a week and than came up to some plus. I saw all the heavy chassis parts i.e. hubs, springs and carriers were covered with ice cristalls wich later converted into little drops of water. The way to prevent it is to use inside heating or to insulate a room from coming wet air from outside.

Have been crossing ebay for a couple of hours, some stuff looked to be interesting to others. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-Mack-Truck-Hood-Ornament-on-different-base-Tap-handle-NICE-/310838282974?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item485f67cade http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-MACK-Truck-Radiator-Hood-Ornament-Emblem-Badge-No-Reserve-/370983374166?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5660550d56 http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-Mack-Truck-Hood-Ornament-on-wood-base-paperweight/310838282964?_trksid=p2045573.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao% http://www.ebay.com/itm/Neat-Mack-Trucks-Service-Emb-metal-Sign-w-Bulldog-11-3-4-Inches-Very-NICE-/171212866197?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27dd150295 http://www.ebay.com/itm/ORIGINAL-MACK-JR-BONNET-BADGE-VAN-PICKUP-/201014058572?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CommercialVehicleParts_SM&hash=item2ecd5f1e4c http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-Mack-Truck-R-600-sign-emblem-8-and-3-4s-USED-/321294367666?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4acea2fbb2 http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-Mack-Truck-sign-emblem-7-USED-/310839692848?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item485f7d4e30 http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-Mack-Truck-Super-Liner-sign-emblem-7-USED-/310839692676?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item485f7d4d84

Beautiful place to spend whole a day on my mind. Just Disneyland for big boys

O-ho! I hope to get a RW for a hobby one day and sometimes catched an idea to buy Australian one because it would be terrible expensive to import it both ways. Your point moved my mind aside. God bless America!

I'm off TV at all since I'm off my wife about 7 years ago. About 4 years back I got a TV set at home. Although to my great happiness there is no antenna cable or aerial itself in my house.

Also during the WW2 Mack produced single axle semi-trailers to be coupled to EHT and EHUT tracktors. Thank you for posting.

Thank you for posting. I like how Aussie Macks look but have newer seen this fleet anywhere in the net.

My beard is longer than usual now and it comes to be gray some areas. Need to keep in mind to get it quit big to the moment of my next visit.

Nice road shots, it looks the same way as overhere when it gets cold. Glad to see one more trucking place of the globe, thanks.

Oh, well, Randy, thank you for clearing me up. I had been breaking my mind on how I could miss thouse barraks. Not too hard though

Sad story, best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Cool story, didn't imagine there are some of them rail buses still in service. Many thanks for posting.

Beautiful trucks for shure and nice to meet the thread from good past years.

Tom, glad to see the fresh update, I'm risky to fall in love with those Jimmies, they're really awesome. Randy, I shure remember, you made the excellent excursion over Bethlehem steel plant. Now I tell to many friends overhere about that sad story, lots and lots of such the samples in Russia. Just can't figure out the point Tom made the shots from. Are they from the other side of the river?

My today's favorite shot is the daily 200 pushups. Everything else is interesting also. And... surprized to see some one with Russian plates broke down in Winfall.

Merry Christmas from overseas again!

There were 6 stud-piloted 24.5 Alcoas at Macungie this past summer for $75 each. Looked weel and needed polishing for shure. I payed the same figure for the same amount in the same condition, they're travelling over the sea right in the moment. On my mind a reason to use inner steel's is doubty, they'll need to be cleaned up of rust and pained just to not to be pieces of sh*t. As far as used alloys need polishing there's a matter to think more about new ones. And if you go that way you can get Dura-bright's but hub-piloted only.

The last phraze I have written into the copybook. Although we are all well skilled over old iron. Maybe it's time to increase our knowledge over another subject(s)?

Looks like a good turn out. Always don't forget to keep the track (your) and all will be good. Or at least you'll be on the track.

Usually they really don't know what they do want. Including the moments they think they know.
