The first U model


Recommended Posts

Vinny - First you make fun of the Frankenstein B model I bought, now you are making fun of my little Jay-Pan truck. I am going to go sit in a corner and cry.

Just kidding - all the other kids making fun of me is what made me strong

Strong smelling that is.

from information ive gathered and things i realized that im pretty sure this is the first U model broucher. so im thinking this is the first U model. i also have proof its one of the first u models because they didnt make many u models with the mack badge on the hood instead of the letters. ive also been looking for one of them mack badges like the one on this u models hood...maybe looking to purchase one :whistling: and believe me ive spent days researching my u model in the build sheets and researching other u models and other macks. ive spent days in my room, only going out of my room to go eat or go to the bathroom.

actually use this link. go to the bottom of the page and there is some brouchers. go to the one that says U series.

now vinny you SAY youve been in your room for days researchin U models, the rest of us know the real story of what a 12 yr old does for days in their room j.k haha. i always liked the badge style emblem on that U and some early R models. believe they were used mostly on the off highway trucks. i think Superdog/Mike mentioned a while back he had one.

At least you won't go damn-near blind like I did.

That's right. The next line is "A piece will drive a Valiant" or sumthin' like that.

Here's a Mack Constuction Truck brochure from '78 with some offset cab stuff.

I'll stop picking on Olive since he doesn't wanna play with us.

Oh, I am always ready to play - at least when I have time between shooting bad guys, making pierogoiessesses, and taking photos of cow turds.

Since you cried so much, I will post you and vinny some pics of the Frankenstein B model today
