Please do! nothing better than Jersey Girls!....................................Mark

Here's another perfect example of a "New England" style paint job,two-tone,fancy contrasting pinstripes and lettering one of my personal favorite "looks" for a truck!........................................Mark

A-P-A had an MB yard tractor at the Philly terminal when I worked there,it was so short you could just about stand on the steer and drive tires at the same time!....................Mark

Please take time today to remember all our vets who have served our country both past and present,if not for them,we wouldn't be living in the greatest country on earth!...............................................Mark

I know of a Barnes Construction Co. in Millington,NJ but have no idea if that's where this Brockway came from,neat old truck anyhow! I gotta big soft-spot for Brockways!.....................Mark

LOL! that's what I was thinking! maybe not even a driveshaft,just two u-joints?......................Mark

Just some random pictures I came across on the interweb,usually try to post them when I find some new ones!......................Mark

LOL! def. heavy on the steer axle!.................Mark

I really don't know what the plans are for the B-Model,did'nt really have a chance to talk very long,but he will update new pictures as work progresses i'm sure! I will see what I can find out about it as well. Jim,you are right,he does great work! one of the best painters and welders that I know........did you look at any of the past projects? really nice work,they do a lot of customs/hot rods in South Jersey..............Mark

A little nippy here this morning too!...............................Mark

You can think about it,But Don't Do It!!!!!! wouldn't look good on my highway!.............................Mark

Ken,its 1958 Cadillac "Acadian Green" really light pale green,hard to see in the pictures.................................Mark

Here is a link to what he is working on now,for the same customer!..............................................Mark http://www.gallorestorations.com/projects/59_mack/59_mack6.html

Thanks guys! I didn't think there were,but wasn't 100 percent sure,i'll let him know!........................Mark

Got a call today from a friend of mine in Jersey who runs a body and paint shop,he is not real familiar with trucks. He had a Mack related question and said "I knew just the right guy to call" unfortunately I did not have the answer,but told him i'd sure ask and find out on here. He is re-doing a set of older R-Model doors for a customer,and wondered if there is a gasket that goes behind the half door-dogs? I honestly didn't know for sure,but figured someone here would!...........................................Mark

Does anyone know the story behind this B-81? I saw it in the video,and have come across some other pictures,but no information. I remember posting it on the Jersey Macks thread,and have an uncle who is a lifelong resident of Riverdale,NJ and hes never seen it! just curious because it looks in original not restored condition,tough-ass looking truck anyway!....................................................Mark

Very nice! a real treat to hear all those Macks at one time!.............................Mark

I've said it before,an i'll say it again,we (as a country) are headed down a steep grade with the trailer brakes on fire and no runaway ramp!...........................................................Mark

Best wishes for a Happy Birthday Denny!...................................Mark

Astro looks in pretty nice shape too! unusual looking Freightliner C.O.E.,never seen one like that............................................Mark

I kinda like the B-75,ol' girl looks pretty far gone though!...............................Mark

Last year when we got a "dusting" of snow down here,i thought long and hard about buying a wrecker! if for nothing else,to recover D.O.T plows,and other tow trucks in the ditch!...............................................Mark

Great looking truck! and story as well! welcome aboard!...........................................................Mark

I (for one) am getting pretty sick and damn tired of hearing about these assholes in trucks,cars or whatever using their "mobile devices" when driving,especially truck drivers! No damn excuse for inattentive driving period! I don't know how many times a week i'll pass another truck,or one will pass me, with some douche watching a DVD,using a computer,texting etc.WHILE DRIVING! I'm no rat by any means,but if I can get their info,i turn their asses in! ALL "mobile devices" are prohibited from use while operating a CMV,that means ALL! And of course the asshole that caused this needless death comes out un-hurt! Trooper doing his job,trying to prevent these things,gets killed for his trouble! govt. should come down hard on not only this asshole,but the trucking company that hired the POS!..................Mark

Nice! looks to me like the B-Model straight job could still be saved!.................................................Mark
