I understand fully how you feel. I could give you a churchey answer but will let you fill in that blank. All mankind has been taken advantage of in some or many ways. Its how much of a heart you have that counts. I see it on this web-site all the time. If Barry and this administration had not cared about us and what he believed in, then we would not be enjoying this opportunity to learn and communicate with each other. Frankly I'm one of those people that needed a brother good or bad. My real brother was 6 years older and left home when I was 13. We had a terrible relationship, but I wish that I could let him borrow something from me again or allow him to see my old B61. He would go crazy over it. He was one of the best custom car, truck, Race Car, signs etc. etc. PAINTERS, with people like Charlie Daniels calling for my brother to paint his trucks and buses. Thats just one of the customers.

I agree Mike, I've met lots of good people on this site that I consider good friends even though I've never actually met them. Rarely do you here a discouraging word here, or people putting others or their trucks down. Sometimes you do, but for the most part lots of people just trying to help each other out. And of course after a while you know people well enough to know when they're joking and when they're not. I've heard there are some on here that are just full of b.s. but I have no idea who that might be. Probly' that nocluejoe... :lol:

Hi Tom,

Hope all is well with you. Last I remember you were not running as much. It will be ok. I'm glad I grew up with a dad that taught me to tighten my belt. I did not know how to take the comment earlier. But felt the need to only express myself as I only knew how. Not trying to slander anyone. I was agreeing that people will take advantage of ya. But you have to be ok with the results. Ya can't always win. I had a great boss once told me when I was going through a divorce that " Sometimes you have to lose to Win" I finally figured out what he was saying. But not at the time of all the turmoil.

Blessings

yeah Mike, been kinda slow. I'm loaded now to deliver Monday-loaded yesterday, so I'm home today puttering around, and browsing Hank's truck pictures. That's always good entertainment for a while. I've only made one trip for 3 weeks in a row now.

Hi Tom. I had never looked at this Hanks site before.......now I've got a question.......saw 2 C model Macks on there, a C607 & C609. I don't seem to find anyone on the BMT site that has one. Can you help?? I think I'll never be happy until I find myself one of these!!!

thanks, Rusty

Hi Rustydog, as a matter of fact I know where one is for sale a mile from where I work. I put it in the ''trucks for sale'' for the owner a while back, if you scroll down far enough you'll see ''C-model''.And there's a picture of it in my gallery on page 2 of misc. photos, with snow on it. Truck Body Corporation in Lynchburg used this truck for a yard truck for years, and the present owner bought it to restore himself, but I think he ran into some health issues and decided to sell it.

I don't have another picture of it on my PC, I thought I did, but here's A C-model I took at a truck show in N.C.

That C model for sale is on page 3 in the for sale column. I posted it last August, and no one has replied yet. I'm gonna try to move a picture here...

It is only worth what the current owner is willing to take for it, or the perspective purchaser is willing to pay.

$3000.00 sounds a little high to you and I, but someone else may not think so.

Of course there is always the analogy: "A fool and his money soon part ways".

yeah, but-no one replied, he might take way less now if you give him a call, times are tight.

Hello mike,

I am sorry for your lack of humor with my MACK BROTHERS comment.

I put this emotion :D for a little fun with you but see I shouldn't.

My thought was,AROUND here we borrow and give what ever is necessary to our Friends or family.

Parts,time,trucks,money and a shoulder if needed{sometimes you never get a return} that was my idea when I posted.

You didn't want to get CHURCHY with me so I will

DO ONTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD WANT DONE TO YOU

That how I do life

ALSO I'm sorry about your brother, try to consider I didn't make my comment to bash brothers.

Thank you for your time reading this,You made me feel like shit at first then pist but we are MACK BROTHER's

I will get over it,,you really have to think in general not from your own experience.

Take care, JIM
