41chevy Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 While watching over my wife after her minor surgery, I got to wondering how many MACKS are/were in Cuba after the embargo started. Looked at a Cuban site of truck photos and looked at an English site on the Cuban National Auto Museum. I only found two. One is a 1915 AC thats been modified over the years with a Soviet Diesel. It was put in the 'museum' in 1he mid 70's. The B is at a rebuilding shop and tagged as a 1964 but I think it's older (?). Most old trucks seem to be Ford,GMC, Chevy and I.H.. The newer U.S trucks are I.H and Freightliners, the balance are Russian, Indian and Chinese. Surprised that there isn't more MACKS in Cuba.Any one have some photos?

j hancock Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 The B does look familiar. I think it may have been at Trovei's yard in NY? Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
