      Great old truck. I wonder if it's Thermodyne powered. We ran a later model Thermodyne on the dyno at EPA and it made so much torque at low speed that it got ahead of the dyno load curve and pushed the dyno up to the RPM where the two load curves crossed. That's LOT of grunt on a 600 HP DC dyno!

      Thanks for the story

        Thats what bulldogs are known for, grunt down in the ceiler.

        My Dad has a friend that worked at the Brockway Truck factory in Cortland NY, 30 miles from my house, his whole career, he was the guy that literally shut the lights off for the last time when the plan closed. He has spent his retirement working on old Brockways. That, my friends, is passion.

          Good on any guy willing to drive a truck that had armstrong steering and suspension that would rearrange your internal organs then knock out all your fillings.
