    That Hallamore M45 hauled a replacement main transformer from a barge up to the transformer pad at our CY Nuclear plant in the 1980,s. It had two M15 dump trucks up front as pullers to get it over grade. It was painted Hallamore colors back then. The dumps were owned by Butler out of Portland Ct.

    They must be trying to hide the new heavy haul

    H67: Hanks pictures-go to forum-sign in(not sure if you can view as guest)-Photography-Favorite truck-child boards-pick Mack-New model Mack. Works for me

    For the first time in a while I went on Hanks. They have quite a discussion on the new Mack pinnacle changeover coming as pictured by the green and yellow Sharkey prototype. Most comments were negative as far as the appearance. I'm sure that was not the final version. The discussion can be found by scrolling down the website until you get to the latest truck photos listed by manufacturer in a horizontal fashion. We will have to wait and see.

    For the last couple of months or so I would have to try getting on to this web site several times before entry was accomplished. Last couple of days I can get right on. Seems like PFM to me.

    I have a Kholer engine in a cub cadet and I have to use WD40 to get her started all the time in cooler weather. Havn't blown it up yet. Dam Kholer.

    Love that orange B-81 mixer.

    Does anyone know the model of the Brockway with the Mack conventional cab and the set forward axle. This was one good looking truck rivaling the Superdogs IMHO.
  9. james j neiweem
    Superdog welcome back. I had a mild stroke about 10 years ago and I have some advice for those who may undergo one in the future. Get to the hospital ASAP. They have drugs now that can reverse many of the adverse symptoms however they have to be administered in the first few hours after the incident.

    Underdog my thoughts exactly.

    Never saw to many midliners around. I remember reading when Mack was having financial problems in the 80"s before the Renault purchase that the Mack Mid liner was keeping Mack"s head above water.

    Nice. Love those R's with the grill guards.

    The Mack CL 700 was a beast IMHO that only came only in axle back configurations. I know many of you on here have been creative in stuffing different engines in B's. Has anyone ever tried turning a CL into an axle forward configuration? (Give me 80 acres and I'll turn this rig around).

    That looks like one of those rare seldom seen Canadian Pteradactyls that leave their calling cards all over.

    Man is not a bad looking truck. Still like the Argosies better though.

    Is the one off of 385 still open?

    Actually if you look at the L cab it looks very similar to the H model cab. Probably because they both came from Orville body works. If you look at the A model cab it is very similar to the White coup cab again probably from Orville body works. If you look at the Ford Bud cab it is very similar to the F model cab around the window area. I think the F models were built in house at Mack. It looks like Mack modified the Budd cab or N cab and made the F model cab. The F model and R model cabs are similar around the window area. The R model being much smaller. The R model was built by Schiller Globe but may have been a Mack design.

    If you look at the Sudebaker cab and the B model cab they are very similar. When they first came out, some used to call them Studebaker Macks.
  19. james j neiweem
    I think 87 was the start of the galvanized cabs.

    Its in the blood.

    I hope Volvo reads these posts. Not likely.
  22. james j neiweem
    41 chev are those Macks custom made or Dehan models?

    Severino is running a lot of Granite AF and AB up near dover along with Peterbilt tri axle trailers. I believe the Granites have Allisons. Was up to NH over the weekend and Severinos Granites and RD's are crawling all over Dover like ants. I believe they have about 20 dual axle dumps. The Peterbilt tractors may be in jeopardy as I saw a new Western Star pulling a tri axle dump trailer. Also they have a nice old axle forward A car converted to a water truck. Mack is missing out on the big power CH that could be pulling those tri axle trailers. Mack still seems to be pretty strong in Eastern Mass and NH.

    Seems like they are trying to bump Mack out of regional/bulk haul.
  25. james j neiweem
    That is a great idea Bobby J. I wonder if any body at the museum has seen these drawings.
