  1. Josh,

    your truck is turning out great. I really like the color combo. I have a 1977 RS700L with a cummins, 13 speed, and #44,000 rears. Where in pittsburgh did your truck originally reside? Did you ask about a blue B-model dump truck, with a tilt hood, that was in pittsburgh a while back? I might be able to get you a photo of that b-model...

    Thanks for the complements. I liked the color combo too when I bought it thats why I left it that color. My RS700 was originally from MT. Nebo, PA. I just found out today that the guy( Bob Owens) I bought it from bought it new then sold it then bought it back. I did ask about that blue B with the tilt hood in pittsburgh. Any pictures of your RS700? Whats the vin number on it if you don't mind me asking. Where in PA are located?

    Thanks again, Josh :clock_logo:

  2. Ken,

    I don't see any problem in changing the Dog over to Gold. It's your Mack build it your way. Besides does it have an E7 or an EM7? If has an EM7 then your in good shape because it's got a Maxidyne.

    As for the removal good luck. Things like that don't usually go in my favor.

    Thanks, Josh :clock_logo:

  3. Thanks,

    It's a 1976. The truck was originally from Pittsburg, Pa. When it was new it was your genuine Mack red with a black frame but the original owner painted it blue from one end to the other inside and out. Then the guy I bought it from painted it in the same way I'm doing it green with a Mack red frame. It's turning out alot nicer than I thought it would when I first tore it all down. I think every Mack nut needs one. I love it :banana: !

    Thanks again, Josh :clock_logo:

  4. My 76 RS700 came new with tan interior with a tan plastic headliner but in 1989 the second owner put a tan plastic radio console in with all new tan vinyl back cab panel, head liner and door panels. Now the new cab I got for my RS was off an 84 Canadian R600 and it came from the factory with the tan dash and door panels and painted tan inside but had a black plastic radio console and a tan cloth headliner like out of a diamond tuck interior. I thought at first some one put it in there but after a closer inspection it came that way new. I looked at 84 Canadian R700 a few years ago and it had the black dash with the ox blood red diamond tuck interior with the Bulldogs stamped on the door panels as well. I have pictures of it somewhere. I'll have to dig. I'll have to post some pics of the tan interior in my truck as well

  5. I had a great time friday and saturday. I really think that it is a great setup that Mack has there. Doug congrats on the speach. I would never be able to get up and wing speech like that. I'll put my photos in the gallery tomorow.I also took a few videos of the Albert Brown burn out. Somehow I always get distracted and never get to meet any of you guys on here at these shows(I'm easilly distracted by shiny metal :whistling::notworthy: ). I never did here how many trucks did actually show up. Does anyone know?

    Many Thanks, Josh :clock_logo:

  6. The Western RS/RL 700L models were the fanciest of the Mack R models and had many weight saveing features. In other words they were the Superliners of the day which they were replaced by.

    Farmer,

    Here's a 1976 RS712LT that was on truck paper recently. Factory single axle with a 300+. Some where I have picture of a RS797LT (factory single axle with a 375 V8)that was on truck paper about 5 years or more ago.

    Thanks, Josh

  7. Thanks Guys

    Green Dash,That would be my cousin Scratch. He runs from Sharon to North East every day twice a day. The Magnum he runs is the one built right after Tackaberrys. Scratchs is 001312 and Tackaberrys is 001311. Here's a picture of his from early 2011.

    The black B615 with the red frame is Rich Muis(Forgive me if I spelled it wrong).

    Thanks, Josh :bulldog3::SMOKIE-LFT:
