ThaddeusW Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Allot of those B80's were provided by J Supor and Son, a heavy hauling and trucking outfit in New Jersey. You see their name in the credits at the end. I forget the other providers. Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 The B 81 in the movie belonged to my cousin, Jack Shortway when the movie was made. He ran it every day out of the quarry. After the movie was done one of the producers bought the truck from him and took it to Montana. A couple of the A Cars were owned by Mike Jost Excavating from Franklin Lakes, NJ. I think he still has one of them, that was in use up to a few years ago. The other trucks in the movie were owned by various owner operators from North Jersey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I saw my cousin the other day and asked about the truck. He hasn,t heard anything in quite a while but the guy who bought the truck was going to use it on his ranch. I'm looking for a single axle b dump truck or tractor. any leads would be appreciated.

BobsLandscaping Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Wish I could find a cool truck like that. It'd be a great promo piece for my landscape biz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m16ty Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I just watched this movie for the first time in a long time today. I did notice the B and the DC Autocar, I never had paid that much attention before. There were also several DM and R. It got my curiosity up so I did a search and found this thread.
