Truck1536 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 I stopped out at T.S. a while back. The woman in the office was happy to let me walk the yard and take pictures. I think they have a new Mack Titan that I'd like to photograph.

other dog Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Saw these near home today, including a hedgehog, a U model and an ancient combine.Great pictures, you win the kodiakatronomy trophy this week! It's in the mail, should be there in a couple of weeks. Nice Peterbilt there, and a nice looking groundhog. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

I think they have a new Mack Titan that I'd like to photograph.The Titan was way in the back.I went over there because Delea Sod across from them has 4 painted up older Mack tractor trailer units, but they were all to far in the yard to see good.

Mike Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Yea......good job on getting those photos Paul. I tried to get some today, but with no luck. An old company that I recall paved many of our roads and highways in and around Nashville. This company is Hoover. They have a lot full of older Macks. I did notice a B Model water truck today in their lot also. I drove all over that area but could not find a place to park. Looks like it will be my next challenge when I go back to that area.mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25439-today-in-pics-u/#findComment-122273 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I've never seen an older one with a large grill like that!Ernie DS I asked around a bit about it and here what I'm told. The truck was bought from the Iowa 80 Truck stop in Walcot in 2004 with the H series Cummins in it and the original V 300 Cummins V8 with it in pieces. Now has an NTC220 Cummins in it. Was tagged originally in California and found in Wyoming. They think is was a Constructor type unit. It is in limbo right now. Not for sale bu may be.
