Popular Post NY-B61 Posted December 10, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2014 I was out in the one-horse open sleigh today, leaving a huge manure footprint like my ancestors and those before them did. Didn't have time to add the suddenly required $9.95/oz. additive to Dobbin's oats, but darned if the sky wasn't still blue, my ass still frozen to the seat of the sleigh, and the globe in my study the same temperature as when I left. Am I mistaken?Found this beauty after I'd gone over the river, through the woods and on my way to Grandma's house. The sleigh knew the way, but if it didn't, this nicely restored Brockway would have fired on the first try and towed me and the chestnut roaster to Grandma's house in record time. It was a pleasure to photograph!Enjoy! 9 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38058-brocksicle/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Horse Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Cherry Hill has it on their front lawn in North BranfordThx Matt- I was just about to send you an e-mail as I was drawing a blank and thought you guys had posted something about it before. What was the name of that garage? Hughes Bros comes to mind but I'm drawing a blank. They were Mobil for years and then in the end flew the Citgo flag. I do believe they had all the big wreck business on the upper end of 84. They had at least one R model too.No Mega buck Petes/KW's with hydraulic booms-just know how and cables!
