Now I remember the green one Mike! but if I remember correctly didn't it have flames or something painted on the fenders? and I seem to recall one of the headlight trim rings was missing!.......................................Mark -
Holy shit! I never knew there were so many model buses produced! (thanks 84superdog!) I had an uncle (now deceased) who drove for DeCamp Bus Lines Montclair,NJ for almost 50 years! The bus I remember as a kid was a GM "fishbowl" I knew Corgi made a fishbowl,but never knew they were available in so many liveries. I am going to order the "Old Look" GM coach and the Greyhound (Van Lines) truck for my collection!..............................................Mark

I sure like the B-Model Chuck! I used to see the R-Models around when I was up that way. Do you remember M.I.T transport from Hammonton (I think)? they ran mostly R-Models too,i know I have some pictures of their trucks,i remember one (an owner/operator) that had a really sharp white-orange and black striped Cruiseliner............................Mark -

I found this picture on a website that was printed in a foreign language unknown to me,but it's a nice picture of what looks to be a still working truck,going by the modern RD and KW next to it.Sharp old truck,i have always liked the L cab on a B-Model....................................Mark

Some of the original "old school" super truckers? Bogie and George Raft? I like the part where Bogie threatens to beat the shit out of the "Chisler" (Truck broker) that owes them money!........................................Mark

Funny thing,most all the Gremlins and Pintos here on the east coast were cut-up and made into modified stock cars back in the 70's pretty rare even now to see one!...........................................Mark

I hate to admit it,but Mack hasn't REALLY stood behind their trucks in decades! I had to raise 7 kinds of hell with customer service over several warranty issues,i talked to some of the principles in person at MATS when the problems were current. It took some doing (on my part) but the problems were satisfactorily handled! It was the same issues many were having at the time (E-7 camshafts,coolant tanks,intermittent electrical shorts etc.) I told all involved that if Mack was not something I believed in,i wouldn't have bought FOUR new ones! "New" truck? of ANY make ? no thanks! when this one gives up the ghost,my next ride is gonna' be a re-built R-Model or maybe an MH.........the way things are today,no more new trucks for me! especially with all the electronic,EPA,DOT environmental bullshit!.....................Mark
