My Grampa, Henry "Fluffy" Robinson, of East Bernstadt Ky. He was an owner/operator and used this truck to haul produce from Florida and Texas to Ohio.
These two pictures are of Grampa's first tractor/trailer. It's a 1958 B73 Mack. He bought the Mack about 1960. This first picture it was a single axle and Trailmobile bunker blower reefer. This picture was taken after Grampa added the tag axle to the Mack and pulled a Great Dane with belly mount reefer. He later traded the Mack from the 1964 International COE. My Grampa bought this green 1964 International in 1965 and ran it until January 1969.
Then Grampa traded the International for this blue 1969 Peterbilt 352. He had a lot of mechanical trouble with it and only kept it for one year and then traded it for the 1970 359 Pete
He bought the 359 Pete new in 1970 and a new Great Dane in 1971. I think it was the first big hood Peterbilt in town. He retired in 1978.
