What did happen to all of those B81's the were in Die Hard.

ChuckP,that was one of Robert T Hawthrones trucks from Philly.They were the largest demo contractor here back in the 70's and 80's.They only ran Macks.Their maintenance program was don't look at it till it stops.I can remember them hauling some demo into a landfill over the bridge in NJ and the airlines on the tractor wasn't even hooked to the trailer,driver said the trailer had to many air leaks,so that was their solution.

What make me think that if I get out to Lisbon,Ohio one of those b models may be moving to Philly.We all know that dogs like to run in packs,so why wouldn't the other 2 follow.

Happy Easter to all of our extended family here on BMT.Great bunch of fellows.HAPPY EASTER.Hell with the candy,I'll take some NOS Mack Parts.

Baro hauled stone out of Martins Quarry for a job we were doing along 422.

Welcome to the dog pound,we love pictures.

Welcome to the dog pound.

Welcome to the dog pound,like that red b model fire truck.

I think I just soiled my draws watching that.

We had a fleet of 15 of them back in the day.Ours were 79's,triaxles.Other then the bumpie ride they were a good truck.

Welcome to the dog pound.Love that B model.

Anytime,i'm always around. mike

I've seen a rust colored one park there,it right down from the ice hockey place.Beem meaning to take a pic but always forget the camera.Do you drive for JDM.When your around let me know I'll show you my B87.215-669-1252 Mike Durkin

philatruck,i've seen that new JDM fuel truck.Very plain but is a rather nice looking truck.It's your typical JDM,or late Durkin trucks that were just plain janes that got the job done.I can recall back in 98 when I was looking for a new tractor to put under our lowboy and my dad over heard me talking to the Pete salesmen.After I hung the phone he said stick with what got you here,and that would be a MAck.So you know what truck we brought.Mack CL700 with the V8.The more we loaded her down the better she pulled.Came out of Bethleham Steel one morning at 3:30 am loaded with our Cat 375 and I tilted the scales at 204,000,the only downside was my permit was good foe 198,000.I crossed my fingers and went.

Mark,that truck from Daily was an owneroperator that works for them I think his name was Jihn Parsons,he made some moves for us.That had a E9 in it,i think he sold that one and has a newer truck now.

Do you still have the 2 orange fenders and maybe a radiator shell to go with them?If so what do think shipping to Philly PA 19116 would be.

I will check out the one last bone yard I know of this week.Let me have a # where I can get you at if I find one.

If it only sat 3 years I have no doubt that it will be running today if you get the chance.

My B87 has a 9.10 rear ratio and she tops out at about 72 at 2100.

Come on over alittle east to Philly and you may take her out for a spin jaysm35a2.Thanks for the compliments.

The only thing that matters to this old fart is something with fing HEAT.Coming from a family owned costruction company,I spent alot of time in the cold,snow,rain to either fix a truck or equipment.I can tell you this much that my days of laying in the cold mud is over with.So build it big and with alot of heat.

I must of not made myself clear when I said the truck is not for sale.I will say it again THIS TRUCK IS NOT,NEVER HAS BEEN FOR SALE.

Here are some more shots of the beauty queen.These were all taken before I repainted her about 3-4 yers ago.

I have a beautiful 79 r model that your 6k wouldn't come close to buying it if it was for sale.One owner,72,000 orignal miles.For the 6k don't expect a truck in real good shape.Mine I'ld hop in right now and go to Calif. in it and never give it 2 throughts.What are you looking to do with it,restore or use?

I saw that the building wasn't vacant on the news.The fire I was talking about in Baltimore was a F---ing furniture store that all persons were out and counted for,and they sent in 7 great men for what.No sofas or love seat is worth that price.
