  1. I would say. How many W's do you see on a trailer headed to PA? I used the process of elimination. I knew it wasn't coming to my place because I haven't wrapped my deal up yet.
  2. I think we have already seen a pic...
  3. You can send the photo of the truck to me at dmaney@comcast.net. This is done mainly to keep newer trucks from entering the show field that the driver is just looking for a place to park. We make sure to give special consideration to brands or models that are no longer in production. As far as weapons in the park, I am not aware of any restrictions. I can't say I have ever seen anyone carrying but I would not be surprised if there are numerous firearms on the property during the ATCA National Meet. I can't recall seeing any signs notifying visitors that weapons are not permitted and I just reviewed the website and I didn't see it mentioned anywhere. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask. Doug
  4. Antique trucks are considered 25 years or older. If you have a newer truck you can send by email a photo and we will review it and let you know if it would be able to be shown in the special interest area as well. For more information Www.antiquetruckclubofamerica.org
  5. One suggestion for him, SCANDIA. He can have all he wants from the USA. He can even find them in other countries...
  6. Golf carts and similar vehicles are allowed at the ATCA National Meet. They must be registered at the registration booth. We require a cell number so that if the cart gets parked somewhere where it should not be, we can track you down. There is trailer parking for transport trailers and extremely limited parking for combinations. This year the Combination area will be restricted more so than in the past due to the large number of transport trailers filling it up.
  7. Thanks for the sales pitch! You were close on you numbers, 75 people registered and we fed 375. As you can see we know to anticipate a larger number of Truckin" Nuts! Please refer to the information in Double Clutch and make sure to call and sign up. All members and guests are welcome, we simply need to know how much food to buy. Hope to see you there, If I don't, you don't know what your are missing! Doug
  8. Don't worry about being laughed at. It seems there are many who have never been to the ATCA National Meet at Macungie. It is referred to as the "greatest antique truck show in the world", well worth the ride from NYC. Macungie is near Allentown and should only be around a 2 to 3 hour drive from NYC. There is a fantastic truck related flea-market that is always full of great truck related items including brochures and pictures. I don't think you will regret making the trip and I would think that once you come to the show, you will never miss it again. See you there!
  9. Remember, the ATCA Family Reunion is Friday night at the park. More info available in Double Clutch!
  10. You beat me to it Dan. I was going to post the same thing.
  11. Before the World Headquarters was closed, I made arrangements to take the G and several of my friends trucks to WHQ for a photo op.
  12. I arranged to take several trucks over to World HQ before it was closed and defaced. I am certainly glad I did.
  13. No one goes in the garage? I wasn't made aware of that... I pulled your chain and opened the overhead only a month ago and you weren't even at home. I even hauled a couple of things away!
  14. The air cleaner arrangement was an option. The under hood air cleaner had an air intake at the grille opening to pull cool-fresh air through the grille. Single right mounted exterior air cleaner or dual air cleaners can be found on 6 cylinders or V-8's depending on how they were spec'd. All Magnums are V-8 powered and I would have to say most had air cleaners mounted under the hood. It simply cam down to preference based on the application, aerodynamics and preference. I can't say I have ever seen a Super Liner with square tanks from the factory. Steel and aluminum were available. We seem to be forgetting, when you order a Mack, you order a truck spec'd to what you need. I don't think they will be as flexible now as they once were but, they would pretty much build the truck with the parts you specified. There is no way to generalize with a Mack. We do however have at our disposal, the way to find out what each truck was built with, access to the build records at the Mack Trucks Historical Museum. There are many great advantages to owning Mack Trucks.
  15. It is the 72" cab with the corners cut for exhaust and intake clearance for the body.
  16. The ATCA National Meet at Macungie is the "Greatest Truck Show in the World", not just the country. Just ask some of our members from around the world that have affectionately referred to our little gathering as such. There is nothing that compares, worldwide!
  17. From what I understand, Cadillac Mack burned up along the road... I am on Facebook, look me up, same name, just me.
  18. I know of one in Virginia. I am waiting on pics and details.
