Thats what i wanted to know,thats one hell of a truck in the middle KRAZ?......................................Mark

Only gonna say this ONCE,even if it is a peterbilt,thats a damn "truckly" looking truck right there!.......................................Mark

Heres another oldie,Overnite "China Closet" F-Model delivering empty bottles to White House Apple products warehouse in Glassboro,NJ summer of 1982............................................Mark

Here are two nice Macks from the ATHS South Jersey Shore Chapter show at the Salem Co. Fairgrounds approx. 2004/5...................................Mark

OOOHH! OOOHH! i'll go iffn' i can take the Superliner!

I don't know about the "real" truck in Smokey,coulda just added the sound i guess,but this one was at the ATHS show in Colfax,NC last year,supposed to be an exact replica of Snowmans truck it has an NTC-350 Cummins,13 Speed,and i believe 3:55 rears................................Mark

Never liked convoy,guess i'm the exception to the rule,i liked the trucks in Moonfire,that RL-700 has always been one of my favorites. My Dad and i saw Smokey and the Bandit together at the movies when it came out,one of my best memories is towards the end (when Jerry Reed passes Burt Reynolds) my Dad "elbowed" me,and said "Boy,that old Cummins sure sounds good,don't it? he's gotter' wound up thats for sure!"......................................Mark

When i worked for Atlas Van Lines as a company driver,we got one of these as a "loaner" from the local Freightliner dealer when my tractor was having the leaking windshield "fixed" for about the 15th time. They had just became a Scania dealer,and were really pushing these trucks,i drove one like the one in the picture for about a week,what a shitwagon! had about as much power as an air-cooled VW beetle,about as much room inside,some kind of convuluted 7 speed direct trans. with the most annoying "shift indicator" light on the dash,so bright it would blind you at nightime! i could'nt wait to get the POS Freightliner back! thats how crappy this truck was! and at the time it was brand new!..................................Mark

Much better discipline then me,but then again,theres no sugar in my tank!..............................................Mark

I seen many different variants of steering wheels in Macks over the years,i have a NOS B-model wheel in the box,from when Horner Mack went out of business,that is white.....................................Mark

Thats a real snap-shot from the past right there! i like the truck,but agree with Jhancock,that interior needs to be green!.......................................Mark

Thanks for the info,never heard of such a thing! of course not much in the way of winter sports in Jersey!......................................Mark

Same here!

Nice truck,and i agree, DT-466 is a damn good engine,we had 8 new IH straight jobs at Atlas when i worked there with similar specs. last i heard all bu two are still in use today....................................Mark

I thought so Mike,just was'nt sure,i still don't remember seeing any though..........................Mark

Dont't think thats a "cheap shot" Al,i like the looks of your BCR,damn good looking truck! i like the paint scheme.sure reminds me of the "glory days" hooked up to that single axle 35 footer,seen many an outfit like that out east when i was a kid............hafta' owe you a raincheck on the "like" i'm fresh out for the day! LOL!........................................Mark

Ready when you are Al ! LOL!..........................................Mark

Tom you read my mind! i been afraid to ask for fear of looking like a dumbass!.....................Mark

Thats a damn nice looking truck for sure!

Does anyone know if Mack produced the Bulldog mounting base in gold? i had a few hours to kill between stops this past week,and went into an antique/collectable store,they had one mounted on a gold base (the one like goes on an R-Model) did'nt look like it was painted or changed in anyway. i don't recall ever seeing one,all the ones i know of were chrome,prolly would have bought it just for shits and giggles,but they wanted $75.00 for it !.............Mark

Yup,G-Model that truck is in great looking shape too,not many G-Models left anymore...........................Mark http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/cto/3624748539.html

Mines too! think Ma said she got it for me with S&H greenstamps,its still around here somewhere,i dont even know if they still make the film for them anymore?

Yep,still there,its changed hands a few times,but still decent food the last time i was in there,they always had a good breakfast.........scrapple,eggs over medium,hash-browns w/onions rye toast!

I cant remember the name,but this was a produce outfit from the Vineland area,they had this and a Marmon cabover too,i took this with my old Kodak 126 "Insta-Matic" out of the back window of my dads pickup..............................Mark

Another "oldie but goodie" an EQ Model taken at Mays Landing,NJ near one of the sand pits i used to load at when i drove the dump trailer in a previous post.............................Mark
