  1. Some Autocar Parts trucks at a local construction yard. They had a lot of Autocars back in the day, and they did not hold up well for them, most of them rooted near the top of the windshield

  2. In PA today on the Turnpike I saw a green Superliner lowboy (no picture) that said HK and a red U model water truck, didnt see the name though. Will post a pic later.

    Yup Haines And Kibblehouse, common sight in Eastern PA. They have a lot of Nice Macks, and a lot of sister companies. Real easy way to tell if it is one of theirs trucks is if there is an American Flag on the Passenger side of the bumper, and the Fleet Number on the Driver's side usually a 2 Letter Abbreviation followed by the number, Example H.K. 15, or if their their sister company Blooming Glenn, B.G. 22. Usually there will be an American Flag on Both side of the hood too near the air cleaner.

  3. The Name C Wallace sounds Familiar, nice find. Has anyone seen, even though it is not construction related, a little Red R Model lube Truck. It is fire engine red, with checker racing stripes on the side, and a enclosed lube body in the back with a large tank in the rear? I seen it about 4 times in the past few years, and I never have my camera ready. I think it is used to deliver automotive lubricants to garages.

  4. Here's one courtesy of the interweb,of an R-Model in front of former landmark Olga's Diner Marlton,NJ before they closed,damn good Pork-roll egg and cheese sammiches!.....................................................Mark

    South State has several of those R Models that they use as site trucks. Great find, Olga's did have some good breakfeast.
