Memories for us old truckers

[Pops52]

Here's a dashboard you could read day or night....And knew what it all meant.

TS have you calculated the top speed yet of this 52 Pete?

Here's a example of what happens to the W990 dash board screen when there's a glitch.

 

[Pops52]

My favorite dash.

Don't know if it's in over drive or rear ratio's--I'll just say it is in top hole-84. WAG.

My 66 351 Aluminum tilt.

Truck belonged to a guy in Sacramento. I drove it to the ATHS show in Huntsville in 09. Can’t remember if I was in 9th or 10th.

NICE truck. Still have it?

 

[Pops52]

I like the single stack

Long gone 24 years ago. BCIII 400, 14613 SQ100's on Air Leaf P steering.

The fact your an old lowboy wheel man Pop's you can understand how hard it was to find
someone with a 17" deck height to keep this at 13'6". Took two weeks to find someone
that would be in the area from the east coast to move it to Manchester. Guy who bought
it absolutely refused to have the stacks removed for shipment. It was his dollar not mine.

Kw for sale near me. Asking price is 79,900, so I'm out as a buyer.

6 months ago it would have been $89,900. Oops there's touch up paint by that stack,
price just dropped to $59,900-it might be within your reach C.O..

The famous 1955 H model Mack owned and operated by Joe Mustang. He bought it in 57 or 58 with Mack power.
It later had three different Cat engines, 1673, 1674 and the last one when he completely rebuilt it a 1693.
He bought the Brown 45' trailer new, the only trailer this H pulled while Joe owned the H. It probably had the
first 8" exhaust--a weed burner. Believe it or not he ran the 48 and Canada with it.

R models and DM's, what I learned to drive on. I call those Real Macks, but back when I was learning the Old Guys said that the Real Macks were the B models, so who knows . . . lol

Quit stalling, the price probably goes up everyday. A few more years of inflation and that will be the price of a yohoo and a candy bar. Banks gots plenty of $$$$. Uncle Sam's got your back and the bank's. Its a no lose proposition. Spending money you don't have- its the American Way.

Or- just get those patents done on the loadamower and watch that money roll in......

The only thing standing between you and that KW is you. Think positive. Go dig those mason jars out of the back garden. Toss the old lady off the mattress and get at that secret cash stash. Turn in those bitcoins you've been hoarding.

Really petepilot- its people like you that are holding back the american financial system.
