Rubber Duck Truck

[The Rubber Duck 006]

So I may have talked my Boss into doing a Rubber Duck Truck for me to Run and also Show. But the Mack I found the other day sold on Market place. I'm thinking a Superliner would be an Excellent Personal Twist to a Rubber Duck truck. Thoughts and ideas Would be appreciated Guys. Pictured is the truck i found but it disappeared off Market Place. I've found a 60inch Sleeper as well off a Freightliner. The Other pictures are the Superliner i found.

Is the superliner purchased by the boss? And who owns the R model ?

I'm likin the red R-model - western. a Rubber Duck truck for me would be a Mack R-700 western. either RL700L or RS700L . personal preference only. a Superliner excellent choice also. with a superliner might eliminate the legal stuff from someone saying you copied a R model without permission ???

This was the best candidate for what you'd like to see of a Rubber Duck replica. But the engine option would ruine the idea of driving it for work.

If I could grab that truck I'd catch it with both of my hands. But I already have more toys than my resourses allow me to bring in order.

A Superliner convertion could be done too. But that's a shame on my mind to ruine a Superliner converting it into anything else. You might sell the hood of it to compensate some expences though.

The plan is in the works. I've actually got three Bosses(Three Brother's took over the family owned company when their Dad passed)and The one said if he can git his brothers on board then he's got no problem with my idea. The Red R model evidently sold cause it disappeared from Marketplace.

My Idea is not to do what has already been duplicated. It will be A Rubber Duck Truck yes but with my Spin on it. It will have the 60 inch bunk,Be totally blacked out with the exception of the Grille,And it will have My Companies name scripted it on it in the old school lettering.And it will have the Duck Hood ornament. The other Superliner I've found has a 400.Cummins and a 13 speed sitting on New way air ride and the frame is long enough to accommodate the 60 inch bunk.

Exactly my Point of my idea. A Rubber Duck Truck yes but with My Twist on it. Not a Duplicated 100% Replica.

This is What I've found and plan on piecing together. Then its paint it black, Straight pipes, Company logo in the Original old school lettering on the doors, Of course redo the sleeper interior and add some things like a dresser etc,also remove those fairing on the bunk. And add some tastefully done Chicken lights too.I know the original RD Truck had a air dam but I'm not going for 100% Replica That's already been done countless times. Then start hauling milk with it and take it to truck shows ( Mid-American truck show especially)parades, and maybe touch a truck events.

A Superliner RD replica would be very cool.

a little bit of work ,BUT the possibility's are endless.  without imagination ,willingness to try ; there would be no airplanes (orvill &wilber);  phones (mr bell) == you got the idea. GO for it. just keep BMT updated -for positives and set backs.
