vision386 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Found this picture over on Hank's,thought it might be of some interest over here. Caption with the original picture says this E-model is still used occaisionally on local jobs,evidenced by the modern cars in the background,and the 2009 Jersey inspection sticker........................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

Olivetroad Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Neat old survivor! I have a buddy I eat with at the diner that has a moving business and I am trying to talk him into buying an old Mack and setting it up like that for advertising and parades. I love those old trucks in their original working clothes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Speaking of old GMC's, I saw this truck was for sale in Wheels of Time- $92,000. Got this picture from Hank's. Nice truck, I have a video of it on one of the Long Road Production DVD's, but as U-model nut Vinny would say "wow". 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Double clutches every shift, with a 10 speed. But he obviously has a lot of pride in his ride, as he should. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
