Do like the Black and Gray color combo.

Mrs. Celli. Glad to have you aboard. Those Celli trucks made me into the Mack nut I am today. In Wheeling Illinois, while waiting for the school bus in the morning, I would see the Celli B-42 Mack gaser dumps and the B-61 tractor trailer dumps almost daily. They sure made my day. I missed out on seeing the many R models and CH models Celli had as I moved to Connecticut after the Navy. 57 BCR has posted several great Celli pictures on this sight. Feel free to post any old Celli pics that you may have. We would all enjoy them. Eugene Celli was quite the innovator.

Would be good if they offered municipality specs for snow removal etc.

KS come on back!

Phase 1 : Thanks for the clarification. I guess that concern doesn't take precidence over aerodynamics now a days.🙂

I agree with Tanto. No offense meant towards autocardc the originator. This is a great thread but the title could use some adjustment. What say you autocardc?🙂

Yes the bumper cutoffs were to save the front tires. Most of the trucks at the time had bumpers real close to the tires. Most bumpers now are some sort of plastic. Probably not a tire killer. I am thinking the Mack Anthem is a three piece bumper. Might look pretty retro if the corner bumpers were removed.

Good news for Oskosh!

The perfect 92 in BBC Mack. Had the B-67 beat hands down. Too bad it never gained traction.🙂

Yes I believe so.

You know now that I think of it Mack dropped the ball with the C model and the B-67. They should have met the 92 in BBC limit with the C-600 instead of the B-67. The C-600 would have been much better competition to the White 9000's of the time. Actually the L cab with the B front end looked very tuff looking (like a Mack should). Actually this may be an idea for a new thread. "Where and when did Mack drop the ball over the years" 🙂

That grill is not doing the original A-cars any favors IMHO

What were the major problems with the early Cruiseliners. I have heard about windows and dashes.

I wonder if any Mack historians know why the C Model Mack was ever produced. The B model was done in 1965-66. and the U &R models came started in 1965-66. It seems as though Mack was trying to use up B model parts and L cabs. The L cab should have been utilized more on the B's to compete with Whites A Car drivers cab.

Weenies need more leverage!

I wonder if they would fit in a Mack CH(Pinnacle)

Just another reason why Communist Ct. sux!

Apgar green and cream B-61's and U-600's. Red Horse Schuster was a White fleet, green coup cabs and then green 9000's. I used to live across the street from their Colchester Ct. terminal. Lots of White action. Then before going belly up they bought a bunch of brown colored U-Model Mack's and moved their terminal closer to Rt 2 and 11. Maybe Maislan bought them out.

Don't even mess with lack of turbo oil. You may be burning some as well.

Did not know that.

That is Cardillo's newer Mack Pinnacle. The Boston trucker drives a KW

poppop: You and I have similar memories. I grew up in Illinois but then moved east to Connecticut. Back then I think White was just as popular as Mack.

O&G Industries was an all Mack fleet with some A-cars, Fords and Sterlings. Some how Mack pissed them off over some stupid calander issue featuring Hi Ho dual steer HMMs( I think) featured in the calander instead of O&G twin steer Mack's. O&G is all KW now with a few Cat 660's. They may still have some Mack yard trucks. This also filtered down to Rawson trucking who used to be Mack but now are KW. Manafort used to be all Mack but now have switched to KW. Gateway industries used to be all Mack but now are mostly Peterbilt. They do have a couple of new Mack Granite dumps. Cherry Hill Construction has switched from Mack to Pete. They still have a couple of legacy Granites. American Industries was a Mack fleet and then switched to KW. Now they are back to Mack Granites for dumps and KW and Mack for lowboys. Mizzy seems to still be all Mack. Herb Holden was an all Mack dump fleet but now have switched to Volvo. (Volvo eating its own)🙂

Thanks for posting. This was up on you tube as well (drone coverage)
