    Was'nt able to post the whole story,but there was an article in the local paper yesterday about a house moving job,there were about 5 Macks involved,but I was only able to save one picture on the computer. Nice to see a DM-600 out earning its keep,while the "modern" trucks are elsewhere!................................Mark

    Believe it or not I couldn't find any pictures either! I remember seeing those too,and wondered what they were used for,i know Swift had some truck-trailer combinations with small tires that were used to deliver automobiles themselves. Pretty sure Ruan leasing had some "Maxi-Cube" IH C.O.Es too.Ron,do you remember who made those 3 axle (single tired) moving vans,the ones that were supposed to double your cube! LOL! and eliminate the fender wells (like on a double drop) I couldn't find any pictures of those either,pretty sure they were Matlocks,maybe Kentuckys?.....................................Mark

    Cabover with a conventional sleeper is nothing new,there were a ton of them back in the eighties,really popular with us bedbuggers (household movers) we had a guy leased on at Atlas when I was there with a KW very similar to the brown one pictured. Truck had a boot between cab and sleeper,and a snap-on cover for when the cab needed to be tilted. I imagine it would not be and easy project on an MR,way to much going on on the back of the cab!.......................Mark

    I would hope its a 13 speed,with a green leaker you'd run out of gears pretty quick with a 9!......................................Mark

    Jim,i'm taking a guess that either the fenders were welded together and refinished (was common back then for rust repair,at least in the "winter" states lol!) or those are fiberglass fenders I remember Clariben or one of the aftermarket companies made replacement fenders without the headlight panel seams or recess that made the truck look "bug-eyed"..............................Mark
