Timothy Maikshilo Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 This former low bed tractor was made into a water truck for my cold plane crew. 475 with 18 speed. Goes good for a non Mack. Same driver since new and well taken care of. Plenty of power for tanker pulling skid steer package! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billythekid Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Is that an old tilcon truck? Nice truck too real clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slpwlker Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 that isn't a bad looking truck Always likes the big hoods or long hoods. Weather it is Mack,Ford,Pete,Kw,A-car even a star car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Maikshilo Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 Yes, the long hood of the LTL has always been very nice to see and no, this wasn't a tilcon truck, I know what you mean seeing the WATCH THAT CHILD on the hood. Old Castle owns Tilcon and Pike Industries so it over lapsed from Tilcon. Most Pike trucks never see salt. They are parked before snow comes. WE have a 1984 RD that still looks like new and so does the frame, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leversole Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I have always thought those series LTL's were damn good looking trucks! There are a few of them around here...three axle dumps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather it is Mack,Ford,Pete,Kw,A-car even a star car I always thought the Mack Superliner and the LTL 9000 Fords were the best looking trucks on the road.

Timothy Maikshilo Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 There are no more long hoods on the road. The Superliner and LTL's were the last of their kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 Found another LTL from back in 1991. Company in Waterford,Ct. Had a bunch of LTL's and I would drive for him on the weekends and wax the trucks for $75.00 each when needed. Lot of elbow grease! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
