Popular Post DavCut Posted August 3 Popular Post Share Posted August 3 From LinkedIn Thought everyone would enjoy seeing this… 𝗔𝗨𝗚𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗔𝗥 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘: 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗖𝗞 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗞𝗘𝗘𝗣𝗦 𝗞𝗘𝗘𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗩𝗬 𝗘𝗤𝗨𝗜𝗣𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗥𝗨𝗡𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚 For four decades the late Bob Jones operated this 1967 Mack lube truck. Years later mechanics Mike Foley and Rich Liska in New Milford are still keeping the quarry’s heavy equipment fueled, greased and oiled every workday. As mechanics they appreciate the midcentury truck’s spare simplicity and ease of repair. Riding in this “old iron” is to step back in time.
