My Last One-Finished

Truck Shop · 2021-01-17T18:43:03.000Z

After two and a half years it's finally done. Many hours of work and aggravation went into this Mack. But it was something I had to do-My Last One. Would I do it over again? I can't answer that right now. Was it worth it? Yeah it was worth it to me. Did I learn anything along the way? Of coarse I did, Old Dog's can learn new tricks. Please don't hit the like button or comment, it's had enough likes these last years. I thank all of you for watching the progress and your nice reply's. People to thank for helping me reach the end result. Chris Nulph-owner Tate Transportation, Gayle LeFore and Jeff LeFfore, Hagerman Truck Salvage. Jim Ferraro-Jim's Machine, ACUFAB, Napa of Walla Walla and HW Metals Portland Or. Saved Best for last---Jose Palomino for the the excellent effort he put into the body and paint work. And there is a possibility it will be on the cover of {10-4 Magazine} A big Maybe.

That I don't know, I would imagine so. I asked the new owner if there was a possibility he would take it to the Macungie Pa show for me.

Must have been difficult to part with it after all that time and work. Are they going to resell it ? I see that they have some really neat antique trucks for sale on their website. https://www.josephequipment.com/inv...ccountCRMID=363065&settingscrmid=363065&dlr=1

A OTR with a low profile 29' well transport will be at the shop early Sunday morning to carry it east.

I'd put the KW on the wagon & roll in the cool truck.

Now for the first half of my day. That mack keeps following me-I got a call this morning and I couldn't really understand the person because of his thick accent, I almost hung the phone up thinking it was a salesman. Then the guy said he was part of the production crew for the tv show Ultimate Rides.
