Popular Post PeterMack Posted July 13, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2015 Saw this white RD the other day with no lettering on it, and this Bucyrus Erie still working, although its not a MackI'm pretty sure that's an old R-model fuel tank strapped to the back of the Bucyrus. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranchhopper Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 That white RD was in the diesel shop in Hampshire two weeks ago I see it out that way a lot saw it pulling a lowboy a couple days ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storkmack Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I'm pretty sure that tank came our yard and was traded for some bin block forms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackdaddy2030 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Al, I was heading out to the show at IA 80 yesterday and saw you heading back. Wish I could have been there earlier and saw you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackdaddy2030 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Was over at Smith Specialized Hauling yesterday and saw this, I think Navy, Granite. It's an '08 and must have been a hybrid test vehicle. I one just like this on Truck Paper a few months ago for sale. Think this might be the same won. I guess the owner of Specialized's brother bought at an auction. Engine and dash panel have been taken out. My friend told me it supposedly only had 2 miles on it. Looks like it has a Volvo Idrive gear selector in it and I'm guessing that is an Mride suspension. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackdaddy2030 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I also got some pictures of Specialized's CL. And I guess it's turned up pretty good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post storkmack Posted July 20, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2015 Here is #68. About as close as you will get to a new 98' CH. Picked it up a year ago from a company in Sussex WI that had just done the motor, trans and both rears at Milwaukee Mack. They were getting rid of it beacause their bean counters said it was the next oldest truck, so get it gone. We stripped it down to the frame rails, new hood, doors, back wall, cab floor, bumper, grille, and just about anything that could come off or go bad. E7 350, Mack 9 sp, Mack rears . We have a set back CH coming in next. I will try to get more pics through the whole process on the next one. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullfuel01 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Way to go Brad. Effort pay back, the truck look sweet! I just did it with a front discharge Oshkosh. Half the price of a new piece of crap truck and it will do the same job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
