Pic of the Week

Here's another 2 for 1 special!!!

The weekend before last we working in the garage and Joe D. (quadbox) stopped by to visit. One thing lead to another and he mentioned a '63 Brockway he found online. Well after a little searching, we found it... It's a 1963 158W that's owned by Brad Wike. We believe it has a C180 Cummins in it with a 5 speed trans and a 2 speed rear. Joe thought there was a youtube video of it but I couldn't find it. Anyway, Brad has a really nice website and here's the link...

And here's two pics of the 158W...

Here's another picture from the Dave Mueller collection... I believe this is a factory photo based on the ID number on the bottom right. This truck is an older brother to Quadbox's 361! Maybe a late 50's/early 60's 257? (based on the fuel tank???)

This past Saturday my Dad and I went back to the 361 headed for scrap and removed the parts I missed for the Jake, including the bridges and buffer switch. On the way back we decided to take a quick detour to look at a 260XW my Dad had known about for some time.

So here are two pics of a 1951, 260XW-55-45213. The truck was originally owned by Hank Gardner and I understand it's for sale. Based on the second pic, it looks like it was just parked here a few weeks ago...

Joe D. stopped by the garage this past Saturday and dropped off another pic he took while on the road. It's a 361 that appears to be a former NY state truck, very similar to the one Joe owns. It has either a 230 or 250 Cummins with a 5+4 air shift.

Here is an interesting pic I found on the ATHS forum. Tatra has posted some interesting Brockway pics in the past and this one is no exception. Here is the info he had with the picture...
