BillyT Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Out behind the bar,you put a pop case between the buckets,and fold up a moving pad,very integral! If you're from beaver falls,you know what "pop" is! When I hauled Delco batteries,I used to deliver to a parts store in beaver falls,forget the name.when I was in the towing business, I sold a couple wrecks to the salvage yard there,owned by the Rogoff family.Brings back some memories.That's a sharp Brockway! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32077-brockway-toughest-truck-in-the-world/page/14/#findComment-340243 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyT Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 The first 18 wheeler I ever rode in was a Brockway! Had a three piece windshield and the fenders that swung out May have been a 358.

davehummell Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I liked how the fenders swung out of the way on the two triaxels i drove.

Popular Post h67st Posted March 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2019 My grandfather did rigging and hauling, had an Allied Van Lines franchise, and was the Brockway dealer here in Columbus Ohio. Here's a photo of one of his trucks taken in 1964...you can see the belt-drive tag axle. Next to it is an N400, brand new and ready for delivery. 4 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32077-brockway-toughest-truck-in-the-world/page/14/#findComment-418633 Share on other sites More sharing options...
