Anthony was introduced to the Model T world by his father. Both he and his father. Mike Mackechney, have put in a phenomenal amount of effort into Anthony's 1923 Tanker truck. It has been transformed from a hillbilly special, admittedly a scary fast one, to a painted and polished vehicle. This involved a lot of searching at swap meets as far away as Chickasa in Oklahoma. Like his father, Anthony is always willing to roll up his sleeves to help T drivers who are having technical difficulties on cruises and tours. They often travel as tail end Charlies so they can help stragglers get back on the road.

Anthony married Lauren in 2015. She has become a truly appreciated member of our T family. In 2016 she acquired a T of her own, a 1921 Center Door. They now have a son called Dominic
