Popular Post Marcel67 Posted September 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2014 Thursday I said good bye to my MH. The truck was sold to a collector who is going to preserve and only take it to shows. Its a sad day for me to have to make that decision but do to my situation there was no choice. I'm glad that the truck found a good home and will be taken care off. 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/36981-said-good-bye-to-my-mh/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 41chevy Posted September 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2014 A hard choice, but on the bright side at least the truck isn't going to be worked to death and abused.

57 bcr Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I know how you feel,Marcel. Sold my pristine survivor '70 K100 a few weeks back.Really didn't want to do it either,but saw no way I could keep it with all the other projects I have in the works. Mine too went to someone who will finish the job right and really likes the old trucks. Fine with me.

Popular Post Green Dash Posted September 16, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2014 So... My buddy at work says to me last night 'you'll never guess what I did this weekend" and he was right. He's from Weirton and the guy down the street from him just brought home a '93 MH with a V8! He drove past it a few times and finally went down to check it out. The new owner let him inside and he even got to start the engine. A few taps of the throttle and the skies of Weirton were quickliy overcast, just like the good old days when the mills were going strong.He was very impressed with the condition of the truck and the owner's obvious appreciation for his new found gem. He said he plans on showing it and confirmed that no, it will not be hauling coal! 7 Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/36981-said-good-bye-to-my-mh/#findComment-260041 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Dash Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 That put a smile on my face I think you can rest assured it will continue to get the TLC it's accustomed to. It's currently parked at his house but he is looking to rent garage space.
