Terry T Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 I don't remember the year on this truck, the pic was taken in 1979. Truck is a V8/5spd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireman670 Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 That one looks a lot like my dads truck. He drove for a company called Motter and Guth in Marble Pa. His was solid red, straight 5 speed. When it came in, his bosses let him add a bunch of chrome and leather to it. It was beautiful. He hauled chips to a couple of paper mills with it for the most part but also hauled ties and some coal. Motter and Guth ran all macks at that point and my childhood days were spent listening to macks rolling past the house slowing to make the turn to the garage. To this day I can tell you whether or not its a mack by the sound of the dynatard without seeing the truck. Thank you guys for the great pics. I am going to show my dad these pics and when he digs his out of the closet Ill post his pics on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
