Pic of the Week

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas and is enjoying the holiday!

For this week we have another two for one special... Here are two pics of Sears Oil S18 which is E361T-73436. Andy H. shared these pics with me yesterday. It really amazes me how many Sears Oil trucks have survived over the years, including ours... You look at some of the larger fleets (like DeFazio's and Penn Yan) and their trucks pop up now and again, but it looks like most of Sears trucks (especially the 361's) are still accounted for.

For pic of the week we have a great picture of 3 of the Brockway's in the Marushock collection, including their 1959 147W, their 1950 260XW and their 1970 N361TLY. This picture was taken last winter...

Last week quadbox went to look at some parts he found on Craigslist and found this 1969 361 for sale. The truck has a 250 Cummins, 4x4 air shift, power steering and Hendrickson suspension. The truck is a former Connecticut State truck and only has 93,000 miles on it...

Here is an interesting pic Quadbox emailed me about last night. This was part of Life Magazine's huge collection of unpublished pictures they just released. I believe it's a late 30's truck with a very unique grill guard.

A while back I was contacted by relatives of Primo Marianelli in regards to a Google search they did. I bought a '54 146W that was originally one of their straight jobs and posted pics of it here. They wanted to come look at the truck and when they did they brought a handful of pics with them. So for pic of the week I have a yard shot of their original warehouse in Scranton. This pic has two Brockway's in it, both of which are pre-1940...
