@enck762 It's been so long since this video was made I assumed it was probably sold by now. Your friend actually owns the EQUIPCO Brockway 761 on my avatar?! I'm pleasantly surprised and happy it still exists! What does it look like now? Because the picture is from 1979 or 80. What model year is it 75, 76 or shutdown year 77? Is there any present day pictures? Sorry for all the questions.

I'm 20, so no. I Unfortunately didn't drive it. The avatar picture is by Dick Copello who has taken many truck pictures. He also has massive picture collections. When I first saw the EQUIPCO Brockway picture I looked for more pictures and also records of the company, no luck. Then I started watching truck graveyard videos from around Pennsylvania to see if it's been sitting somewhere all this time, still no luck. But the picture is so cool I decided to make it my avatar. I just love Brockway trucks in general. They are among my favorites What engine does it have? Cummins, Detroit, Caterpillar? What transmission does it have? Please do get pictures if you can.

My dad was a big fan of Detroit Diesels. From the 238 to the 318s. The best way to drive them was to start every day by shutting the door on your hand every morning, then you were good and passed off all day and drove like you were mad at it.

There's actually a fair amount of truth to that. Oil pressure in these was pretty low unless you are thrashing them. The angrier you drove, the longer they lated.

My dad was a "bed bug" for Von Der Aye Van Lines back in the early 70's. He drove a 1972 Brockway single screw with a 318 Detroit, and a 10 speed tranny. Fully loaded, that 318 would pull the highest hills in downtown San Francisco, and purr like a cougar cub!

Brockway Motor Trucks became a div. of Mack trucks in 1956. Cortland, N.Y. was the home of Brockway(Huskie town).The F model Mack cab was used and offered diesels from CAT, Cummins and Detroit Diesel. The quad stacks were implemented to try to quiet down the sound in the city, bouncing off of the buildings.Maybe if it would have been turboed might have been quieter.

They were their Own entity. They bought parts from Mack to build their Trucks in Upstate NY. (Like KW & Peter built buying engines from CAT, Detroit and Cummins. And Transmissions From Rockwell, Spicer, Eaton) to complete their "Trucks"/Gliders, Stick Chassis.
