Excellent looking! I ran with a neighboring company of Willow Grove and and now live in their local. I recall the Macks. Was this one 1003 or 1002? . Also, next year they host their 100th Anniversary and know it would be welcome home. I'll let the chairman know where the truck is now.
Oh believe me, they know. We intend to have it at their celebration.
The day after the CAFAA Fall Muster was the Philiadelphia, PA Muster. It was a GREAT event and will return next year.

and of course the members had to show up when they found the girl was returning and posed with her. Thanks again guys and gals for the fun time and hoped you all enjoyed see her back in town. Now all we needed was a fire to make her HAPPY <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yourock.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Hey Chris is that Burlington Township, NJ's Mack CF Squrt parked down at the far end in that first picture from the Philly muster? I forgot the muster was this weekend or else I would have been there checking your rig out.
