If Jessica approves that's enough for me.

That's what I was about to say. Beautiful.

That is one awesome truck (+cargo). I got a close look at it while at the Harrisburg show this past summer.

..if that's what you call this. I agree WTF!

How about the doubles guy next to him.

Oh! I didn't even notice the B Model.

Here's another auction from Proxibid in Uniontown, PA with two 1971 Mack DM 800s: https://www.proxibid.com/Joe-R-Pyle-Complete-Auction-and-Realty-Service/Heavy-Equipment-Restaurant-Hotel-Equipment/event-catalog/214362?utm_source=bm23&utm_medium=email&utm_term=VIEW+CATALOG+›&utm_content=Proxibid’s+Featured+Industrial+Machinery+%26+Equipment+Auctions+|+January+27+-+February+9&utm_campaign=Industrial+-+01.27.22

I'm guessing the trailer is empty.

Beautiful pictures. Thanks for the road trip.

That's a truck anybody would be proud to be seen in. Looks great.

They've gone up since I was looking. But then hasn't everything.

They have a retro wheel that looks pretty close to original. I think the price is somewhere around $350-400. I got a quote to do my wheel of $1100. I ended up using PC-7 to fill the cracks and about six hours sanding. I used SEM Flexible spray over several coats of primer then cleared it. This was about four years ago. It has held up well although I see some hairline cracks starting to appear.

Merry Christmas to all along with Happy & Healthy New Year wishes.

Bid is now up to $1300.

That's going to be nice when finished.

Great pictures! Thanks. The GMC 600 series pick up is too cool. I can only imagine it is Detroit powered.

Looks like you could fly out and drive home.

Nice!

Very nice. Wish I had the air ride set up.

...and to make things a little more complicated the throttle is on the right side of the steering column.

SWEET!
