Good luck Mike. There will be plenty of other shows and trucks. Concentrate on getting better. We'll see you in October. You'll be in my prayers. Mike

Imagine how itchy that crazy guy must be. I wouldn't even take my shirt off when I would help with baling. Mike

I gave an AC fan to Gary Mahan last year. He has had a lot of AC parts reproduced. You could always give him a call. Look him up under the Mahan Collection. He lives in New Jersey. Mike

His happened a few weeks ago outside of Reading, PA. The rig is from Gregor Topsoil, part of Haines and Kibblehouse. John Haines has a nice collection of restored Macks. Apparently the landing gears got caught and 3 minutes later a train came. The driver was not hurt. The walking floor trailer was a total loss. The pictures are from the local TV station. Mike

There's a truck show in Macungie? Is it any good? Will there be any Macks there? Mike

Welcome and thanks for your service. Here is a B61 for your enjoyment. It is not mine. I wish it was. Hope you like it. Mike

Good work. My dad has done a lot of drawings like yours. I should find them and post them. Mike

At the end of my freshman year of college in 1989 a buddy was loading his stuff in the trunk of his father's pristine 1976 monte carlo, white with red leather. He went back in for another arm full and came out to find an old man had run square into the back of his car, pushing the bumper into the road and making grooves in the black top about five feet long. Really shook-up my buddy. They figured the old guy had a heart attack or a stroke. I don't remember what happened to him, but the car was totaled. Mike

Very interesting. I never heard of and RP cab either. Were the the cabs built in Australia? How about some pictures? Mike

Is this how you are going to get yourself home schooled?

Do you mean fiberglass flip hood verses butterfly steel hood?

He got his moneys worth in work. You definitely need to keep it inside. I hope you can find save for it. Mike

That combine is awesome. What will you do.with it? Mike

Considering that Bush got this country into two wars that he had not strategy for no way of paying for and no way of.ending knowing that he would be out of office before it was over it is surprising to hear people blame the problems of.America on President Obama. I know the republican party gave you guys a tax refund, but how did that really help you or the country. I'm sure I'll get plenty of negative feed back on this, but i didn't bring it up. I like trucks, not politics. This is why the aths does.not.allow controversial subjects. Not everyone on here is a republican. Obama is not the cause of all of this country's problems. Say all you want. I won't be reading of the replies. If you want to talk about trucks I'm in. Mike

I had a red head. I'd rather have a U model than another red head and I don't even like U models(sorry vinny). I'll stick with Macks and my brunette. Mike

I want an ahrens fox piston pumper so bad it hurts. I wouldn't mind a diamond t 201 either. Thanks for the pics. Mike People want them because they are awesome.

It is sitting at a shop just outside of Pottstown, PA. I'm sure it doesn't come from far away.

I hope noone was hurt. Fire is my biggest fear since George Kaiser lost a building full of cars and trucks. Sorry to hear about it. Mike

Here are some other trucks in their yard. A GMC 7500. It's been sitting their for a while. A Diamond Reo that has also be sitting for a while. A 1972 Autocar DC9364. It was offered for sale quite a few years back, but no takers. It has rusted pretty severely since then. Mike

So I really didn't talk to the owner. I looked for the serial number. No luck, but the frame rail was nice and clean. U685T8853 And one of the inside. Mike

In an attempt to keep young Vinny entertained, I went to the local truck repair shop and took pictures of this U685T. The owner said he has to fill the bed higher on the right side so it doesn't tip over going around right turns. Mike

I heard he bought a Peterbilt and is now hanging out at Big Paccars dot com. That should get him.back on here.

Neat bridge. Did you paint "Built Like a Mack Truck" on the inside of the bridge? I have to pee too. Mike

I have not seen the truck except for passing it on the Pa turnpike. One of the firemen told.me the serial number. I found the add in the Pennsylvania Fireman. It's on page 156. It says V-8 twin turbo diesel 350 hp. It does not say it is a Mack engine. I'd like it,but i should not do it. Thanks for the input. Mike

I didn't realize I had typed CF619. It is CF719F1012. I wonder if it came with they automatic. They had it about 14 years. I would like a CF at some point and one with a V8 would be awesome, but having just bought the A30. The CF has the usual rust. Mike
