Mack Truck Mailbox
« on: February 22, 2012, 12:34:06 PM »
I put one of these in front of my house about 12 years ago. I sold the house and the mailbox about 6 years ago. I built one and put it up in front of our Cedarburg house. This winter, I built another one with the idea of selling it.

I love it! It is tempting and I don't even have mail delivery.

When I first put it up about a year ago, I got up  every morning to see if it was still there. So far, so good. 1930, bring a hammer and chisel when you come. I made it difficult to dismount.

very nice.  I'm not sure how you could put a price on that.  Looks like a labor of love.

Beautiful!  And there's just something about old C cab trucks!
