Brian L Allshouse Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Hi I'm just new to the site. I bought a 1965 B model Mack fire truck in Dec. 2004. I just love it! this is my first Mack truck. My wife and 3 children enjoy riding around in this truck also, we use the truck as a childrens outreach program in the Greensburg area. We help educate children on safety issues and Bible stories. The truck makes it's rounds to parades, car cruises and community events. I have loaded 5 pics in the gallery to view, this is how I received the truck in Dec 2004. It's currently in repaint stages now. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/1334-another-new-guy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a collector and am going on basic information given to me. I have the truck soley for a childrens outreach program that I run. I love the truck and welcome any info anyone has to offer. The kids we encounter also love the truck, we take it to car cruises and let the kids get on it the joy and happiness in the kids eyes are worth every minute.Brian Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/1334-another-new-guy/#findComment-6872 Share on other sites More sharing options...
