  1. You could make it an Inter Mack with an after market R or RW hood
  2. KS: For those Mack glider enthusiasts-Get a T-Line glider- add Mack remanufactured pre emissions engines(e-6 350)(E-7 400) -Mack transmission/ rears-on Camelbacks-slap a bulldog on the hood. Now you have more of a Mack truck than the new Volvo/Mack brand. Plus the cab won' rust.
  3. Are cat trucks made in Navistar factories or Cat
  4. Ban together- overwhelm them-let them fine-don't pay- do as you wish- within reason- Don't let them pick us off one at a time. Let the congress legislate not these beuracratic agencies.
  5. A little info on the red B in the background? Any other Macks? The factory puts the glass in after painting, Makes sense to I guess. I can relate to your 1500 ft. driveway Every snow storm the driveway gets smaller Keep up the good work.
  6. Didn't Mason Dixon have short hood B65's with the wide radiator.
  7. Tell him to add some new black and red Granites to the fleet.
  8. One of the few Kenworths I like is the High hood T-800.
  9. This cranky old fart thinks: Texas bumper gotta go, full wheel covers gotta go, two horns gotta go, big stacks gotta go, other than that not bad.
  10. Wishfull thinking. 1) Are their any common parts between Scania and Mack v8's. I know the heads are way different (8 vs 4) 2) I know anything could be done, but how hard would it be to drop a Scania V8 in a superliner or MH
  11. Seems like ford is really missing out here by only using their in house 6.7 Mack and Volvo on the other hand are not only missing out on this eng/tran combo but a medium duty truck as well.
  12. McClure RD # 95 is also ex Rawson. Rawson used to have a bunch of CL's and a couple of vision tractors Red and black. Before that they had some R dumps pulling pup dump trailers(odd for CT). Towards the end of the Mack era they had a few red and black Granites and one light blue Granite.
  13. I havn't seen a Rawson truck in a couple of years. Are they O & G colors now. Does Rawson have any Macks left?
  14. :)A Mack test drive? Or maybe a new Mack?
  15. Looks like it wouldn't be as stiff. Softer ride.
  16. Pray it works out for you Pal
  17. I am surprised they got rid of Mack #5. I thought that was the one the owners son drove.
  18. Somewhere on these threads were internal black and white photos of the factory workers in the assembly area. Also a great color yard shot at Allentown Showing B's G's H's and F's ready for shipment. Must have been early sixties.
  19. Seems like Prospect is just a tanker fleet, I'll have to take a drive down there and see whats up.
  20. Prospect seems to be a class act. Heavy Mack user Granites and CH axle forwards. Employees seem to like being employed by them. Good luck towards the Marquardts.
  21. :)I guess Marquardt sold out to Prospect.
  22. There is a thread on Allentown factories somewhere on here with many photos. I think I started it but I wouldn't know how to find it. I guess you may be able to search Allentown factories.
