Amirana Posted Wednesday at 08:26 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:26 AM Hi, my name is Joe. I grew up about a mile from Watts Mack sales. I'm looking for pics and info on the 1970 lineup of stars and stripe Macks. I've had an interest in them for a long time but never saw one.

mowerman Posted Wednesday at 01:58 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:58 PM Hey, welcome aboard bud. I can’t help you with any photos but yes I remember them closest. I’ve got to a photo as I have a DM 800 Mac model with the stars and stripes. Good luck.Bob Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75792-new-member/#findComment-579208 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had an interest in them for a long time but never saw one. just another example of " why keep all these pictures, I'll never need them" was bad idea ; darn. had boxes of literature while working at Mack trucks '69-'75. every time a move took place more stuff got thrown out. there were a few of the real stars and stripe macks that came through. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75792-new-member/#findComment-579212 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechohaulic Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago think the idea from Mack was wonderful . but for an individual operator to purchase or a large fleet to buy as a parade truck , didn't fly. trucks back then were thought of as a needed money maker; not a parade truck. a couple came through Mack while I was there ;where they went , don't remember. sadly it takes a moment such as 9/11 to get back to the flag waving ; make America great moment. I did build a DM800 /dump model for the owner of Waterbury Mack with the stars and stripe theme ; that and two of my own were in the parts room display case. The F&F Dm8oo mixer I still have the other two were taken. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75792-new-member/#findComment-579325 Share on other sites More sharing options...
