GearheadGrrrl Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 The one in Minneapolis is Electric Machinery's, and I've been drooling over it for at least two decades now. Buy it, so I don't have to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 wow that green one is sweet and it has shutters, definately gives it a different look with shutters instead of the mesh grille. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskymack Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 wow that green one is sweet and it has shutters, definately gives it a different look with shutters instead of the mesh grille.The green one looks like a 600 model. I think the shutters are behind the mesh grill. Check out this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoos Brothers Construction Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Thanks,It's a 1976. The truck was originally from Pittsburg, Pa. When it was new it was your genuine Mack red with a black frame but the original owner painted it blue from one end to the other inside and out. Then the guy I bought it from painted it in the same way I'm doing it green with a Mack red frame. It's turning out alot nicer than I thought it would when I first tore it all down. I think every Mack nut needs one. I love it !Thanks again, Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R700 Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Josh,your truck is turning out great. I really like the color combo. I have a 1977 RS700L with a cummins, 13 speed, and #44,000 rears. Where in pittsburgh did your truck originally reside? Did you ask about a blue B-model dump truck, with a tilt hood, that was in pittsburgh a while back? I might be able to get you a photo of that b-model... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the color combo too when I bought it thats why I left it that color. My RS700 was originally from MT. Nebo, PA. I just found out today that the guy( Bob Owens) I bought it from bought it new then sold it then bought it back. I did ask about that blue B with the tilt hood in pittsburgh. Any pictures of your RS700? Whats the vin number on it if you don't mind me asking. Where in PA are located? Thanks again, Josh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R700 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Josh,I will post a photo of my truck once I get a cab for it. Do you know of any cabs for sale, cause I need one bad! It looks pretty bad right now, if you want I can e-mail, or private mail it to you. My friend bought the blue b-model a few years ago, and has not done anything with it. I asked him if he would sell me that truck, and he said once I get mine done. I am near pittsburgh. I am looking at a 1974 R700 that my pap used to own, now it has a 3406A cat that is rebuilt, 13 speed and #55,000 rears. I think the guy wants to scrap it so hopefully I can get it before that happens.Ethan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
