Popular Post vision386 Posted September 1, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2014 Highpoint (from what I understand) had a HUGE problem with insurance fraud and some "iffy" business practices,resulting in some jail time for some,and a disbandment of the towing business. I don't know all the particulars and don't want to spread any mis-information,but that's what I've been told.Most all the trucks have been for sale on the Truck-Paper/Truck Trader in the past few years...............................Mark 4 Quote Mack Truck literate.

Chuck P Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Great shot of the DM lowboy. You even got the old "Hydro-Pruf" building in the background. Fans of "The Sopranos" saw that same building in the opening credits. 2 Quote "If it's all the sime to you...

Popular Post kmeitz Posted September 1, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2014 Former Jones Motor Co. Spring City, PA Mack wreckers. Trucks were acquired by Seeco in the mid 80's and repainted in the Seeco color scheme. Trucks were moved to the Carolina's in the mid 90's. No known current whereabouts. 6 Quote Keith http://www.flickr.com/photos/40978025@N04/ Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/36715-mack-tow-trucks-and-wreckers/page/3/#findComment-258130 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hicrop10 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 That was our tractor.I can remember when ever we would have a heavy load on it and had to come to stop on a hill the fan would hit the shroud.The truck was original ordered by a fellow that was going to use it as a tri-axle dump in north NJ.I'm sure by now if it still on the road the frame has to have some crack in it.
