God I absolutely Love seeing these old trucks and that they are so well preserved. Thank You my friend for showing them to the rest of us "Truck Aholics" Mark
On the 18th of September there's a truck show in Balston Spa ( Saratoga), old trucks. You should try make it. My son n law and I will be there. It's a good show.
Hey BostonTrucker...Been away for awhile...caught-up on your videos tonight. This one at the Bay State show made my night. The copper-and-blue Brockway "stole the show", especially your chat with Tony Cardillo...what an awesome guy...I could chat with him for "hours-on-end"! Going back to some of your previous videos...forget about "Flatbed Red"...I'm staying right here!! "Chicken lights" on your new trailer??? Hmmm... BTW...loved your remark re: "every day's a truck show". Indeed it is...if you're proud to be a trucker, the grime and grit can wait...what matters is your attitude when you climb up into that cab. Thanks, Mike, for all you do...
Mike, great video, photos, and music! Your passion for these awesome machines is obvious. Thanks for providing us not in New England with the opportunity to see such beautiful equipment.
As a dump truck driver myself. What is the best way to get caked on quick lime. Off a frame. I've heard Vinager, Diesel fuel( Wich I have no desire to do. This crud is what they spray on the roads on the hot side of a steel mill.
Outstanding video all the way around loved it. Just what I needed on a Sunday Night sittin here drinking beer in hudson CO. at the pepper pod right off I 76. Thanks Mike
@@TheBostonTrucker All be dam. That's exactly right buddy. I'm stoked you've been up n down this stretch. Your the real deal mike, super trucker no doubt. Thanks
Mike liked the Mack B61 being 6.4 at the time and Mack came out with the B 67 whick use to kill me on the road my knees were under my chin keep up the videos 73 Bill
15:10 Love that extended hood 360 Brockway with the Detroit 12V71. You just can't beat the music that thing makes. The one @ 21:27 was the same model as well.
A great show Sir. I have a lot of memories of driving some trucks like those at the show. That RED F model really caught my eye. I seen a UPS F model at a truck sales lot in North Little Rock Arkansas in spring of 78. No sleeper of course, a Mack V 8 5 speed Mack and Eaton drive axle. That was a little strange because UPS wanted their old trucks destroyed for some reason. Again a great show Sir. Thanks for the memories. 😊
I was there Saturday. I think there was more Brockway's than Autocars. And your boss was off a little. Detroit never made a V10. But they made V12 power for trucks.
I really liked this video. Your boss has a great looking Husky! I’m also a big fan of Senter’s Jimmy. I’ve been partial because that’s what my family ran.
Looks like a heck of a show and such beautiful and green country side A absolutely gorgeous old Macks there, I had a hell of a good laugh at the reason for Tony not buying a Brockway well done and throughly enjoying it Oh by the way the B61 18 speed is normally called a "quad box", two gear boxes side by side and were Macks main heavyduty trans for at a guess 30 years and nearly every Australia B model and all the early R models Keep up the great videos
My company has a 1963 Autocrar with a quad, I only drove it once with no pre-instructions so I need a lot of practice on it, unfortunately it's been in storage but it's coming out next year. Thanks for watching and commenting! Have a great day!
I'm a real fan of those mack superliner. When I first started in excavating I worked for my dad. He had a 72 mack DM 600 that we used for a site dump truck and I drove that on site off and on for years. I use to load out autocars a trucking Co. we used to haul off site. I was always more about the dirt moving equipment but I like messing around in trucks from time to time here and there. Also my kid plays a game called farming simulator and the new game is going to have a mack superliner in it.. lol Take Care out there Sir!
I think Tony meant a v 12 which the 360x like the one Tony was looking at came with either a V12 Detroit or a 1693 cat hence the extended hood. Mike the truck shows you do in New England are the best of any truck 🛻 shows of any no matter who or wear thanks Mike 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I grew up in Maryland. In the 70's and 80's I remember a construction company called F.O. Day. Back then they had ALL Mack's and Autocar's. When they switched to Peterbuilts in the 90's I was sad. They are a huge company. Their trucks were everywhere in Montgomery County Maryland.
Great B-, R-Models & Super Liners ... K-Whoppers, Pete´s, Autocars & all the other Trucks ... love these screaming 2-strokers. Dankeschön für das Video ! Best wishes from a south German Bulldog Fan
Wow there are some very nice old timer rides at this show....I will be drooling for a very long time.!!![ would have given anything to be there in person!! Just to see all those oldie but goodies in one place!
Not gonna lie dude I'm a little jealous of you getting a more wide array of trucks to drive where you work. All I'm gonna drive at my new job is freightliner cascadias gonna miss my 92 international box truck . I like these videos I ain't resentful or nothing to that nature.
@TheBostonTrucker where do you find information about truck shows? I'm always looking online and i don't think I'm looking at the right places. We just had the the brockway show a few weekends ago in Cortland NY, wich is about hour and half away. I missed it unfortunately. Definitely i wanna go next year. Is crazy that growing up around R model macks and Autocars and just now they are classic trucks
What an outstanding lineup! Good turnout of Mack and Brockway trucks.... When l was growing up..Our neighbors owned a trucking company..Exclusively Diamond T's and Diamond Reo trucks...l love them all
I was so happy finally got to see you and meet you like I say love all the video I like kw and Volvo vnl old Style 2001 rigs do not forget about your new trailer u going do a video I love see that one Be safe on the road please Ty so much Mike
I did not know St J ran to Pittsburg. I always though they never went west of Albany. Also, I always liked the look of NEMF tractors. As A kid living in Shrewsbury, where St. J had a big terminal on US Rte. 20, I used to see both companies running up and down Rte 140. I've seen that L model Mack that Mauro owns , and it is stunning. I love that blue and gold Brock. I iddn't see any one's name on it. Any Idea who owns it ? The colors happen to be Shrewsbury High School colors. Those V8 and V12 Detroits would scream bloody blue murder. I didn't like the sound. Cummins or Cat engines in a Brock are more my style.
@@TheBostonTrucker Which "didn't" are you talking about? St. J running to Pittsburg, you didn't see a name on the blue and gold Brock, or you didn't like the scream of the v8 or v12 Detroits in Brockways, which I think was caused by a combination of turbochargers and the exhaust systems.
Dressed up properly. A Dayton rim is Gorgeous. The rim n wedges needs to be silver, the hubs need to be same color as frame then add the Stainless steel lugnut covers and hubcaps.
Very special video. Lots of nice old school equipment there. For me that black R Mack with the window on the back at 7:05 did it. Beautiful machine. Loved the Superliners too... I'm a big Mack fan! Didn't see any DMs with the metal hood tho. Love those too! Thank you for sharing.
There's a 1948 aluminum Peterbilt in my hometown that still being used today it used to haul I beams and that's a farm truck hauling rings mostly it's a beautiful truck it has no paint on it it's all polished aluminum
@@MrSizewise The sad thing is, I have two hats, one black and one red and I can't get another one. I'd love to give hats and shirts out! Someday I will!
