1948 Brockway Truck. Brockway Trucks, built in Cortland New York

[@rdeanbenson2214]

We had these in the military, right up to their end- good rigs.

[@scottythetrucker8889]

I have been trucking for 40 years ,My first truck I drove was a 61 brockway Texaco tank hauler ...

[@texastwister6988]

Great ♥️🤗

[@angeloavanti2538]

My dad had a twin screw mid 50's Brockway. Green, hot and nasty. He pulled a 40 ft. flatbed or a 30 ft. tanker with it. She was a beaut.

[@muffs55mercury61]

So glad you have it licensed and running rather than it being stuck in a museum never to run again. Such an awesome piece of American history. Back when you could live in a small town and have a job to go to after you left high school. NAFTA has since ended most of that and destroyed hundreds of small towns forever.

This just proves that the gents in the North do have thing's in common with us here in the South. We all love big trucks😎

[@texastwister6988]

This is/ was my family's business 😁 I saw the trailers still driving around in the 80's and 90's with the faded name..

[@BillOGorman1]

Very, very cool...

[@normansilver905]

Brockway also owned Crown Motorcoach of Los Angeles which built quality buses and fire apparatus. The name implied top quality.

[@jerrykinnin7941]

She reminds me of that old yellow 1947 Brockway tow truck. At the old Union 76 truckstop State Line, PA. That was late 90's.

[@FerrickOxhide]

Nice! Back in the days of iron men and wooden trucks! Once in a while I drove a 1951 Brockway with 262 overhead valve Continental, 5 speed RoadRanger with electric over air two speed axle. I worked for a guy that used it as a wrecker. Even in the 80's, there weren't many local trucks that could run with it. It's still around...

[@BillOGorman1]

Thank you John...great memories for sure!

Thanks for showin'...! One of the first trucks I drove was a Brockway and this brought back fond memories....

I often rode with my dad while he was working hauling petroleum products for Henock Oil Co in the Clifton, NJ.

[@packingten]

They were made by Mack's later down the pike,With Brockway name plate.

[@jerrykinnin7941]

Beautiful truck

[@willythewave]

That is the strangest most confusing shift pattern I`ve ever seen, most likely not synchronized either. I bet it`s a nightmare to drive. Beautiful though.

[@MSgt-op4ke]

That’s really a beautiful truck and nice peace of history

[@chrspappas3612]

Beautifully 😍 Done Sir...

[@bluesharp59]

Very nice video and Merry Christmas. Thumbs up liked.

[@willytorrez990]

Awesome truck 👍

[@adiamondforever7890]

What you haven't put spring brakes on it yet, they should be a drop in fit. Several friends have done that to their 40's and 50's brake systems, though one is still vacuum. You need enough brake for our long hills. Have fun

[@allenbuck5589]

Just art. Beautiful truck. Thanks

[@timeno1763]

Most folks who never heard of a Brockway never heard of a Henway, either. "What's a Henway?" somebody asked. "Usually at least five pounds less than a turkey."

[@scottbishop]

i build wooden truck model replicas so i love your videos thanks for the inspiration

[@marian6593]

Wow! That's a gorgeous looking truck (dare I say it looks "friendly"?) Thanks for all the hard work, time and money you've given to this classic. I hope you still have it. 👍💕

[@rogeralsop3479]

I've been to the factory (in 1976).

[@istp1967]

Beautiful big rig 🤩 It looks like it was a Hook and Ladder rig for a fire engine ,👍👍👍

[@bigears4426]

Never heard of these it's a nice truck

[@1940limited]

I'd love to drive it.

[@thomaskuzyk9802]

BOB REIMER drove many different rigs He loved The B Model Mack and wrote THE B MODEL MACK SONG by THE COUNTRY TIGERS CANADA. Tks and drive safe

[@buddyrailfan9856]

9 years later my grandfather is looking at it. It’s for sale

[@SternDrive]

I'm a 48 year veteran long haul driver and have driven these old trucks. One thing that always baffled me was the fact that they often had a convoluted shift pattern. I got pretty good shifting them, but always wondered why they were designed that way. Anybody know?

[@ronaldkirk9685]

She is a beauty you have Beauty

[@ronstandridge5704]

In those times they probably didn't put diesels in very many trucks.

[@BillOGorman1]

They did not... gas was affordable and torque was king.

[@mikeNjanice5382]

Great truck but, We want to hear it run...... Ya know?
