)7 imam. .\-. aw. Mike McKay, Albany OR The Story: This truck was purchased, rebuilt, restored and painted in 1986 by McKay Truck Line in Albany OR. We used it in our eet for a "last out truck" hauling paper and machinery and attended many truck shows over the years. The truck was sold in 2001 and for many years our good friend Bill Latimer owned and cared for the truck, he also attended many shows all around the west with the truck. In October 201 1, Bill graciously passed old #37 back to the McKay family. The truck has just over 300,000 miles on it since the 1986 rebuild, restoration and paint. The paint on the frame and fenders has been touched up over the years otherwise the truck shows as it was in 1986. The McKay family has plans to keep the truck in its original condition and keep it in the family. Engine : 12V-71 Detroit 425 HP.
