Nice mullet. I hear they are back in. The H76 is neat too. Mike

I agree about the green and brown high binder. It looks strange. The fenders are higher than on the other trucks. My father just called an N model Ford a two story falcon a couple of weeks ago. I don't remember hearing that growing up. I said the Reo was the china closet, but it was really the Diamond T. I don't know if they had a knick name for the Reo's. Here is a better better picture of my AC pumper since someone asked about it even though it has nothing to do with cabovers. Mike

That looks like a Paymaster cab now that I think about it. That wasn't a common truck either though. It's mine. Mike

I like the period look including painted lettering instead of stickers. Of course trucks get updated when in use. That is ok, but more original the better in my book. Mike

They had nick names for all of those cabovers. The IH was called the highbinder. Of course the GMC was the crackerbox. The REO was called a china closet. I can't think of any more. They are just nick names. I don't think Mack actually claimed to or wanted to make the tallest cabover. There was an article in Wheels of Time about so cabover Corbits. They were probably the tallest. You can see my H model in the picture. Mike

Tom had about 75 Macks. Several trucks were given to friends. Several others were bought by friends. A bunch of trucks were scrapped, but I was assured that they really were scrap. They got much more for them from the scrapper than any collector would have paid. The Blue Arrow B70 was given to his niece. I bought it from her at Macungie last year. I had been trying to buy it from Tom for about 4 years. The parts were sold to Wayne Hetrick. I think he sold most or all of them. He had been given a B61 which he also sold. His health is not good. One of Tom's buddies got the Glascow B model wrecker and the last truck Tom bought which was an A40? dump truck. They were both at a local show last summer. I was sent some pictures of a very solid LJ dump, but the price was a little high for me. Someone bought it because it was at Macungie on a trailer with a Brockway that had belonged to Tom. Mike

I don't look at the ATHS website much anymore. I used to look at it every night for What Am I?, but now that it is on justoldtrucks, I look there. There are some people on JOT that either don't like Macks or act like they don't so I started posting a mack a day on the the Mack thread just to keep it in peoples' faces. I will continue my membership in ATHS because I love Wheels of Time. I also go to the National Shows when they are reasonable. It will be in York, PA in two years. Maybe I will go to Missouri next year, but that is a long drive. Each of the forums have their good point's but I like this one the best as long as I can avoid the political threads. Mike

Is Morrissey's yard located right of 95 by Cansatter's. If so I was by there about 3 years ago and wanted to roam around, but it was a Saturday. Mike

I sent you an email.with the.fuel pump information. You might.need a pressure regulator with that. Mike

I looked at this truck in Dorr's lot in about 1999. I thought it was an R model with a Brockway grill and emblems, but now see some of the other pieces on it. I have some pictures I can scan if I find them. Dorr had several trucks at the ATHS show in Mass last year. What is the difference between the regular R model cab and the cab used on 700 series Brockways? Mike

That fire/any fire is sad, but that H63 was not in it. It is in Ontario. Many of you remember George Kaiser's fire. I felt like a lost several friends and they were not even my trucks. Mike

I heard about those burned up Volvos on the radio. They said it was arson and a terrorist group calling themselves BMT has claimed responsibility. They are trying to determine just who is bmt and what is their agenda. Mike

Depends what kind they are and how nice they are. I could use a pair too. How about some pictures. Mike

Wow. Never saw anything like that before. That is the Emeryville cab: IH rdf405 I believe, on those 2 cabover above. I figured you knew who owned the trucks in my pictures. Apparently I have seen a flip hood Hendrickson since there is one in the picture. Mike

These are the only Hendrickson pictures I have. They are from the ATHS show in South Bend in 2011. I didn't write down any information, but I think they were all owned by the same guy. This is the only cabover Hendrickson I have ever seen. Mike

Great thread. Definitely not something you would se in Pennsylvania. The green one with the sleeper is really neat. Mike

Where is the truck located? What is the serial number? Does it have air brakes?

Where are you located? Why are you taking it out? Do want to.sell the whole truck? Does.it have an air compressor/air brakes? Do you.have the air cleaner? Mike

Nice save. Mike

I've never seen one like that. They are very rare in Pa. There were 4 or 5 at the aths show in South Bend but all were R model International cars except.for a cabover. I had never seen a cabover Hendrickson before that. I'll have to dig up the pictures. Maybe you should start a New thread though. Thanks. Mike

Lets see more Hendricksons.

I don't know.anything about this truck, but it is a four door.sedan. They were also available.in three door sedan, two door sedan where you access the back seat thru the right side.door, coupe cab(day cab), semi-open cab with doors but no roof, open cab with no doors and some slopey coupe cab but don't remember what they called it. I don't know.if they made any in the B.model, but you could get a 2 door sedan cab in the L model where the back seat was accessed thru an walkway in the hose bed. They did not.keep.records.of.how.many of.each cab style they made. I have a three door sedan L model with a left rear suicide door. I am told that is uncommon, but Noone knows. Mike

Interesting. Do you have a better picture of it. I've never seen a Hendrickson with a flip hood. We don't see to many Hendricson's in Pa. Mike

Those light blue trucks.are two different trucks. The Hendrickson would have a butterfly hood and a R model International style hood. The second truck has a flip hood and Fleetstar style cab. Mike

My father has his Superliner insured with Gulfway. It is.about $400 per year. He has the rest of his trucks.insured with Condon and Skelly. Bit they are not writing new policies for antique commercial trucks. He.had Hagerty for a while but I think they stopped insuring antique commercial trucks too. My trucks are insured by J C Taylor. Other people have told me they would not.insure their trucks though. I did have to sign a paper that said I would not pull or haul anything with my trucks. A couple of people told me they had All State but when I called them they said they did not insure antique commercial trucks. You might as well call your regular auto insurer and see.what they can do for you. Good Luck.and nice H67. Mike
