absolutely love this pic and truck I’ll have to show my brother he’s a Pete/ Kenworth fan and I’m a Mack fan but still love those Pete’s. I drove 1989 Peterbilt 379 back in 1991 over the road the same color but it had a 60” sleeper. thanks for posting
Thanks Lee!
I’ve been a lifelong Pete and Mack fan. Always thought the Pete cabovers were the coolest until seeing the Anthems, they are my fav now.

thanks for posting that beautiful cruiser
Motorcycle Officer Barney Fyfe keeps an eye on the matrimonial service taking place outside the church. The father of the bride has brought along some reassurance just in case the groom gets last minute cold feet. Sister Mary Battle-ax guards the front door of Our Lady of Locomotion Church. Since the young couple is already in a family way, the good Sister will not allow the wedding to take place inside the church. Father McKinnsey agreed to marry the couple outdoors. The white Caddy awaits to whisk the couple off to a reception or a maternity ward, which ever comes first.

Lee, "Eleanor Rigby", a song on the "Yellow Submarine" album. Father McKennsey is mentioned three times.
Bill - life long Beatles fan

I’ve like them both and drove lots of both but Mack is my pick. I like the Anthems also when you sit in a New Mack you still feel like your sitting in a truck and not a pickup truck. I own a 1.1 1976 Autocar but always wanted a Mack maybe some day I’ll get me a little B67 Mack keep those pics coming

Brings to mind the old Dinky 152b Morris Staff Car:
Probably a bit smaller than 1/43, a fun toy from my youth. This recently surfaced in a box of other vintage diecast from the attic. Tires were gone, but years ago I found a size of rubber faucet washer that fit perfectly. Good for another 40,000 miles.
