Green Dash Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 This one (which I had a shot of on the first page),is parked right next to my storage trailers.It has a non running 6-71,and a 10 speed in it.The cab is rotted really bad,but the damn doors shut like a new one! (go figure).Mirrors have thieved off of it(no biggie,same a R-series IH).Otherwise complete.100_3069.JPG100_3068.JPG100_3072.JPG100_3070.JPG100_3073.JPG The last year I remember seeing this truck on the road was 1986.That was the year I got out of the ARMY,and started hauling for Meyer Material Co. with my own truck.This truck was originally a Glen Meyer truck out of Palatine,Ill.Is that a horn ring on the steering wheel? If so, was that common on Hendricksons or just an aftermarket thing?

If so, was that common on Hendricksons or just an aftermarket thing?That was a common thing for Hendricksons,Jim. They had used ROSS steering gears in them.The horn button (or hub) said ROSS on it,with the ring attached to it.Had to be real fun to get your fingers caught in it,wouldn't it? That one pictured,has the ring,but its zip-tied to the spokes in the steering wheel! Hey, at least they didn't just throw it away! 1 Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!

57 bcr Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 I don't know,Ernie? I'll have to look into that. Used to see 'em on a few different trucks.But now that you mention it,lot of Diamond T's,and Hendricksons. I'll ask a truck parts guy thats been around,I bet he'll have an answer! AlTalked to the parts guy today,he called it a "snail-type" muffler that he used to stock.It was made by Stemco (the seal people). Jim DeYoung (of Beaver Dam,Wis.) restored a 931 Diamond T cabover within the last 5 years or so.He has a CHROME "snail-type" muffler on that truck! I'll have to find a picture of that.

Hey, at least they didn't just throw it away!A lot of companies used Ross steering gears-- horn button said Ross cam and lever steering.We had 260 Brockways with Ross gears in them steered great didn't need power steering!Also used to belong to a fire co. in West Chester that had a'57 Seagrave Anniversary pumper same steering-same wheel but i think the horn button said Seagrave on it.Ron 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29540-hendricksons/page/4/#findComment-163078 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superdog Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 OK,I didn't know the same guy bought both trucks from Bruce & Jerry.I know they didn't have the Hedrickson very long.Jerry redid the 400,it ran good but was was pretty rough,it had been turned into a dump truck.He sold it shortly after he got his yellow KW.

Popular Post Superdog Posted March 5, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2013 Had to do some more digging to find this,I picked this '58 H-67 up at Jerry's after I unloaded his trucks.I bought it on ebay near Joliet,and he picked it up for me and kept it at his place. 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29540-hendricksons/page/4/#findComment-169941 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Dash Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 That's a Ruan bumper on the IH, fer sure. I was never a huge fan of that particular model but that one looks great in red with black spokes, as does the Hendrickson.

PeterMack Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thought these pics would be appropriate here. This is a 1928 Hendrickson that was at their booth at theMid-America Truck Show in Louisville this year. Had a very interesting talk with the guy that was in charge of getting this truck restored. He said this truck was built in Hendrickson's Chicago plant 20 some yearsbefore they moved to Lyons. It was found in a garage in Joliet IL around 30 years ago. One of the Hendricksonbrothers wanted to restore the truck so it was shipped to Arizona to his house but after about 20 years itjust never happened so he shipped it back to Hendrickson. It was finally restored and is on permanent display with another truck at their office near I55 and Lemont rd in Lemont IL. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29540-hendricksons/page/4/#findComment-174408 Share on other sites More sharing options...
