Tanzillo

That was the first truck I ever drove solo in the seat. 15 years old running down I-55 with the driver sitting shot gun and showing me the ropes.... .. Think it's a RS700L had a 285 with a 6 speed...think it also had the hood scoop on it?

It probably would have been yours too if it didn't catch on fire... Here it is again on snow removal with the "famous for his antics" Mike Tanzillo

Glory Years

Greco had this Steel nose R in Buffalo Grove a few years ago when they rebuilt Arlington Heights Rd. It was probably on that same job 30 years ago the first time they built that road. As my old man says, "Greco is still using the same equipment they had when i worked for them 40 years ago....and it was old and shitty then"

Saw a familiar looking red RD today and a nice grey and black one the other day.

I wouldn't pick my nose so much if i knew you would be taking photos of me

I hope that red R model didn't get exported, shes a sweetie.

Unfortunately Tanzillo # 16 (truck pulling square tank R) got exported, however the square tank RJ Flood R model was given a Rust-Oleum overhaul and brought to tractor pulls to prove Peterbilts and Kenworths inferior
