My father drove for Matlack Inc. for 35 years. They went out of business in 2001. I was wondering if

anyone knows of an R Model that was part of their company fleet. My plans would be to restore it.

Thanks for any responses to this.

Are you still interested in locating a Matlack r model? I have a lot of the specs of what they were built with if you want them, this is the one my dad drove

i see those Matlack R's have air starter tanks and no battery box on the pass side. don't think I ever saw an R with only one battery box . kinda a shame to see all those big Mack fleets gone and replaced with plain white and blue trucks

Matlack Macks had two battery boxes mounted behind cab, the air tank you see on passenger side is for unloading tankers
