I have no doubt that both of these classics will attend the Glasstown SPAAMFAA muster this August at Wheaton Village in Millville, NJ.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news. While at the NJ State Exempts convention in West Paterson on Saturday, I had a chance to speak with several Billingsport members, one a past president of this 123 year old statewide organization. After the picture of the Mack leaving the Glasstown Muster appeared here at Firepics last year, I asked our past president if he was on it, which he was. He then gave the bad news that it became disabled on the way home, requiring a tow. Saturday I was informed the Mack is not yet running and they don't know when it will be again.
