montonedump Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 http://eng.scaletrucks.ru/photo/rd800/ Kind of my first post and being a lover of Macks and not being able to own a real one I build models of them. I found this on a Russian model site and thought I'd share it. It's pretty remarkable and at first I thought it was real. Enjoy Quote I'm 39 years old and when I grow up someday I'm getting me one of them Mack trucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GearheadGrrrl Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Those are some most impressive models- if you hadn't said they were models we'd have thought they were real!BTW, if anyone is looking for a steel nose RD in 1:1 scale, I saw one parked alongside the road in Geneva, Minnesota with a for sale sign on it. I didn't see any rust on the cab, and it looked to be an RD600 with at least 44k rears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CF686F1292 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Great looking model. AMT or ERTEL used to have a model out of a DM-800 with butterfly hood,and flip up fenders. Believe it had a 350hp V8 as the engine. The Limestone quarries around here all thier tractors were DM800's,and thier straight dumps were either r models,and u model "sidewinders" Quote James Spurlock Palmyra,Pa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montonedump Posted July 7, 2007 Author Share Posted July 7, 2007 I will Barry, I've got a Dm-800 to finish up and a scratchbuilt RL-700L to complete right now. I'll post them up soon.
