Brockway Trucks Message Board

All 3 of the orange and black, S/A one W/ tag. All Cummins. Two 257'S one Cummins one Continental. A late 50's N257t Check out those replaced corner windows

I spent a good portion of the day with him. A really great man. I saw his grandson Brian @ the show this year, and he told me that he had passed away

About 10 or so years ago There was an ad in the WOT for an IH. I saw a 257 in the background so i called and asked about it. They said come on up. I was in Virginia and these were located outside Hazelton Pa. The man who owned this was Whitey. I know there is a pic of one of these Stegmaier Beer tru...

The picture was taken in 1967 @ the IH dealer in Milwaukee Wi. I think it maybe a Mercury sleeper. It is not a W series Ford day cab next to it. I have eliminated all these so far. Brockway,Dodge 1000, Diamond T, Reo, Diamond Reo, Ford H and W series, GMC, IH Emeryville, 4000, and 4070. Kenworth all...

[quote="Screamin DD"]N.C. Purdie had a small terminal in Flint N.Y.( Halfway between Geneva and Canandaguia on 5&20). When I remember them they had 359's with 8V-71 Detroits, and 743 and maybe some 855 block Cummins. They also had International Fleetstars w/cummins. They were very nice...

Yep! A little fustrating when you get everything you want in your post ...and..POOF. There goes another post floating in space over Cayuga Lake

There's a cabover on the roof of a truck repair garage on 83 heading towards Baltimore (maybe closer to York Pa) I've seen that many of times, Tom. It's a 362 double bunk Pete. I think what you are refering to Glen was a White Road Commander w/ a dry box trailer, Elevated along side the NYS Thruway...

Happy Birthday Jeff

Where do most people get their cab bushings from? I will need them for all three series, and did they change between series? I want to change all 3 on each of them,Thanks

Is it me or is the guy on the John deere texting? I'd say that being he is a hard working Farm boy, he is probably picking the calluses on his hands. Any drivers from the non-power steering era knows what I'm talking about. Wouldn't have that problem with that tractor, as I recall, all the 30 serie...

Joe, they are new belts. I ordered them as soon as i got home. $5.03 a pc. and they ended up sending 2 sets of each by mistake @ no charge so Ray will have some new one which i planned on giving him anyways. Thanks for the comments everyone! Hopefully it inspires others so we can ride in their truck...

Except for everyone on this site!!!

Little too cold for the ice cream Stretch. Brian I was seriously going to. My friend Charlie Hackett that has the CF truck was going to take off work a couple days. We figured about 32 hrs out and 45 to 50 back. Would have been a fun story, HUH?

Yeah it was fun, Eric. That 4th gear is a little unforgiving with the synco gone. The speedometer is about 8mph off cause it was set for 20" rubber instead of 22". It tops out @66. Between you and John aka Dockman, you bring these DOGS to life. Thanks for videoing it, I'm sure everone will...

Stan yours was heavy spec'd. As my first one was and RZ AKA BIG SHOOTER from the southern tier is too. Just the difference between the 257 and the 260

Happy Belated Birthday Stan.

You know Tom I noticed the same thing.

Here is a great pic of a 761TL with a tilt hood and a 457 next to it. This was taken in the 80's @ the Bandit truck stop west of Allentown by Ron Addams

You're right Jeff! I forgot he has it posted as a 250. Surprising it has an oilbath on it

I want to thank all of the Endless Mountain chapter for such a great show this past sunday. The weather was great and really got to visit with friends old and new. As fate would have it i had a mishap just before I got to the show. I lost my fan belts and no spares with me. I didn't know it til in t...
