Default Re: 1960 Harley-Davidson of Macon Delivery Truck

Fetch, I grew up comparing other trucks to this one, and always thinking they just could not compare. Never dreamed I would one day own what everybody called "Grovers Truck".
Mr. Grover Sasaman is a living legend around here. He went to the Harley School in 1939. Mr. Harley asked him to start a southern dealership, and he did. During WWII, he built a short take-off field for Jimmy Doolittle and his Tokyo Raiders. They practiced take offs from a carrier deck on the one Mr. Grover built. After that, he went into the US Marine Corps, and served till the end of the war. I am honored to know him and blessed to be the curator and caretaker of this fine old truck. Greg Mead
