Pic of the Week

On Thanksgiving Day, Tommy and my Dad were hanging out in the garage in the morning while Jennifer was busy getting dinner ready. While we were hanging out, Tony Naro stopped by and dropped off some pictures for the HUSKIDRIVE website. Tony heard about the website through a mutual friend at the local fire company and decided to stop by the garage and visit. Shortly thereafter, Tony stopped by again with his Dad and Brother and brought me this picture.

The picture is of Tony's grandfather, Michael C. Naro, standing in front of his 1947 154WH. What a sharp truck back in the day...

Here is a pic of (2) consecutive serial numbered N361LL mixers that were owned by Gloucester Transit Mix of Gloucester, MA. Both trucks had 250 Cummins, 5 and 4 transmissions and 65,000 lb rears. They were for sale in 2001 but it's not know if they were sold or not. Picture courtesy of M. Pacitto collection.

I started saving copies of the pics and after an hour or so I had almost 200 pics saved! There are some really great pics on there, so I decided to decided to create a separate folder on http://www.HUSKIDRIVE.com. You can check them out under the Photo Galleries section.

Here is one of my favorite pics from the collection. It's hard to tell if it's a 100 or 200 series but here are a few things I picked up on...

Dominic Zaccagnino stopped by the garage this past Saturday and brought some pics along. Here here are some pics of a 257 he restored a while back...

For pic of the week, I have the most recent addition to the Millard and Son's truck collection... this 1976 N761TL-91029!

I found the truck for sale locally a few weeks back as was able to bring it home this past Saturday. We are still working on digging up the history on this truck and I am requesting a copy of the chassis record from the Mack Museum. Here's what we do know...
