tjc transport Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 their warehouse is humongous. rite alongside RT-80, and for many many years they had an old fill sized rig on the roof. i have not been up that way in over 10 years now, so i don't know if it is still up there or not.

Popular Post 66dc75 Posted February 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2017 Brothers are Frank, Fetch, Paul and Andy. Frank broke away on his own many years back and owns Horseless Carriage. Andy (passed away a few years back) ran the moving business. Fetch is retired, and I think Paul works for Frank at HC They had locations in Paterson NJ and Hialea Fl S Malatesta moving has been shut down for a while now. Former S Malatesta White 3000 giving my Acar a lift. All original paint just a little re-lettering work. 1 5 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48677-maine-bed-bugger/#findComment-361309 Share on other sites More sharing options...
