St. Louis Mack Trucks
See a lot of trucks fron the northeast on this site but thought I would start a thread on Macks in St. Louis. When I was a kid it was nothing but fords, macks, internationals and autocars. In the city and a radius up to 18 miles outside of it tri axles can gross 90k and quads can gross up to 112k . Below are some pics. As for tandems you can gross up to 72k.
The hood is different too. It has deeper fenders; the top of the wheel arch is roughly in line with the centre of the headlights on this hood but is much closer to the top of the headlights on the shallower hood. I don't think this is down to R or RD series because I think Mack changed the R700 design sometime in the mid 70s so all R700's from this point had the raised cab and deeper fenders. I've attached some scanned spec sheets for a 1970 R700 and a 77 R700. The cab height above frame is 61.3
