Mike Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 There's a member on Hank's that restored 2 of Lane's trucks. They are in this video beginning at 2:35. He has other videos taken from inside the cab. Hey Jim, I really enjoyed this truck video, the music was of excellance.

dockmen027 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Don't ever remember Acme having any stores in upstate NY, so it's a wonder how this B-model got relocated here... Although they were based in Philly, they had a lot of stores in Jersey. When I was a kid I used to help my dad unload these old Macks at his store in Nixon, NJ. All of the merchandise was stacked loose on pallets and had to be unloaded by hand with roller conveyors (remember those). You couldn't do that now, it would take too long. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29202-jersey-macks/page/9/#findComment-159923 Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a real good man with a big heart!
