Doug Maney Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 What a Macktastic weekend! Friday was cool and damp with scattered sprinkles and mist mainly later in the evening. Obsession, the kindergarten teacher singing group, pulled off most of their performance until the sprinkles got heavy enough to warrant covering their equipment.The Mack Brothers Motor Car Company Clam Bake re-enactment was a great success. Over 100 Mack-Wackos ganged up Firday night to take on shrimp, clams, hot-dogs, burgers, salads, drinks and desserts. I am proud to announce that the Mack-Wackos won, the piles of food put up a good fight but we proved dominant. If everything works out, it looks as if the Mack Brothers Clam Bake will be held again next year.Saturday was a Macktabulous day! The weather was great, the trucks on display were beautiful and the crowd was completely enjoying the day. I did not hear how many trucks ended up attending but there was a great turnout. A couple of the highlights were: Superliner V-8 from Canada, ED with a hand-crank dump body, Ultraliner with the stripes continued on the upholstery as well, A-54 integral sleeper survivor, Superliner with stainless and an interior trimmed with suede interior, Magnums, R-models, B-models, L-models, F-models, U-models, trucks, foretrucks, equipment, junkyard, vendor area...THERE IS NO WAY TO POINT OUT THE HIGHLIGHTS!If you are a Mack enthusiast, Mack Days are a must attend.I have to look at my camera to see if I took any photos, if I did, I will post some.

Underdog Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Doug, The Friday night Festivities sound like good times for all! If I could ever get my dispatcher to cooperate, I'd like to be there next year. It was a pleasure to meet & talk with you on Saturday and I promise, my F will be up & running in attendance next year!

Barry Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 We definately gotta hit the next clam bake! We tried this year, but we got a late start on setting up the tent and an extra hour of customer relations (other wise know as a good ole' fashion BS session) combined with a late check in at the hotel followed by our other guys demanding a shower...well, it was a bit late by the time we were ready to socialize. We ended up going to Hoss's on 501!It sounded like a good eating event, and we are planning on making the next one!The show itself was spectacular to say the least! The weatherman tried everything to discourage the Mack fans, but in the end, sunshine was the main attraction followed closely by gleaming old iron...and plenty of both! It was beautiful cross section of Mack's finest as well as a few other brands mixed in for effect!It was great to hear about the guys who came from afar to participate! We even had John Innocenti and his red B-Model Pick-up stop at our shop Tuesday on his way from California to Lititz! Beautiful truck and a great job putting her together!Well, that's enough rambling from me...great job to everyone involved in pulling off another great 'Mack Days' show in Lititz, PA!

b61fred Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 didn't make it, got within 4 hrs away and busted a axle on the trailer, worked on trailer in the rain along the interstate for hours in the rain, chained it up and gave up and went home. I guess theres next year. I looked at the weather at the hotel and looked like rain so we went home. I think I am going to get sick!! B61 fred Quote 15 gears...no waiting!
