I have some other parts i'm going to be listing for B models shortly as well

    Found a few more photos, this appears to be one of their old DM600's.

    Here are some Anthony Julian truck pictures i've acquired. They are still in business but now do a lot of utility work. The B81 rock truck was one of their old ones, it used to haul slag out of a steel plant somewhere in Bridgeport i believe? This RS600 appears to be an old one of theirs as well.

    Did you install a Vintage Air air conditioning unit in the truck?

    These guys are up in Bristol,CT and are exporters. They seem to be grabbing up a lot of the Macks in the area. Nice looking Brockway wrecker though

    That truck isn't really a long wheelbase, its frame rails are long. This DM800 oilfield truck is a little bigger. The wrecker from Highpoint is a long wheelbase as well. Photos by Mark Redman

    I plan on painting my truck yellow, frame black, rims grey and hubs black. Yellow is different, just have to find a shade that goes well with the truck. I'm hoping to get my truck almost the same yellow as the B61 in this picture. Everyone in my area has red or green trucks. Recently the new fad has been to paint the dump bodies on trucks gray.

    The Mack Shop sells t shirts with the older "retro" design on it. I got one a while ago

    Just found and scanned a few photos i took there back in December of 2005. The article that was written by Dave Zsido about Bill Craib was in the May/June 2002 Issue of Double Clutch

    I've been by there and have some photos from the yard. Its on Rt 22 in Berlin,NY right near a concrete plant owned by Bonded Concrete/Ready Mix (i believe). There was an article about the owner, William Craib in double clutch some years back. From what i recall the owner of these trucks was in the construction business, not sure what happened. Across the street are a bunch of old dozers, scrapers, etc that belong to him as well

    The mixer photos i came across online. The all wheel drive B61 tractor was a custom built by Bob West from CT

    Heres a B81 with a Garwood military rotator that is still in service. The truck was purchased from someone in New Jersey a few years ago

    I'm from Connecticut and the only D'Addario trucks left around are some of the DMM Quads, theres one in stamford and one in norwalk. I've never seen any older (60/70s) DM's around. Here is a photo i found on the computer, not sure where it was taken but some of the DM tri-axles are visible in the background.

    John- Yaworski Trucking from Canterbury,CT has the last Superliner built which has a Mack V8 E9-500 motor. In 1970 Mack introduced a 325 hp Maxidyne V-8 diesel (ENDT 865 V-8) and in 1985 Mack introduced the E-9 500hp V8 motor. Not sure what years the other V8 motors were in production.

    When i went on the tour of the Mack factory, there was a chassic with just the frame rails and axles in it. The truck was tripple frame with 65k rears, a heavy front axle and all spokes, that was a very rare sighting. I missed the BMT photo op as well as i was at the mack factory, i think my shoes are dry, my wallet is still a little wet. There was a cabover Mack with a tru-hitch wheel lift on it that pulled out a stuck GMC flatbed over by the truck loading area, that was an interesting sight to see. I got some good pictures, with no sun glare. Still a good turnout despite the weather.

    It seemed like there was a lot of different stuff from last year, but also a lot of regulars who did not attend. Gerhart did a beautiful job on the R model tractor on display. The show is always worth the trip!
