Macks at the Waupun Truck n Show --Waupun WI


Recommended Posts

This FWD pickup was one of my favorites at the show. Had a custom bed with a wood floor in it. Made a ton of noise

with the straight pipes. Would love to take that to a cruise night and park it on top of a car. Looks like a Mack fuel

tank on it too.

Nice pictures, thanks for posting, I wonder if the green and silver R is a working truck

Looks like it was fresh from a rebuild. Never got to talk to the owner but it had Homers Towing/Chrome shop sticker(from Milwaukee)

on the back window. Truck was parked with them for the weekend, not sure if they helped with the rebuild or what the deal

was. Got a picture of them coming back from the Saturday parade.

Thanks for the pics, specially the MH. The blue/white Pete was their offering of a more aerodynamic cabover design. It has a lift-up front "hood". Don't remember if the cab tilted too. I saw a few in the 90's. Personally don't like the big sun visors on the orange and blue Petes.

Here are a couple more antique's from Waupun. Was talking to an old timer while I was looking at the Bordens Milk

trailer made by Bartlett and he said they were made at 28th and Blue Island in Chicago. He and his friend had some

interesting stories. Cool trailer and truck but I thought a single axle B model might look better under that trailer.
