mike69mackman Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Pink paint aside it's still a nice looking truck Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/26816-mh613-on-ebay-but-whats-with-the-pink/#findComment-133631 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 i dunno, just looks like they painted the frame with straight enamel and it faded out. 2-3 years is about the limit for pigment in straight enamel Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/26816-mh613-on-ebay-but-whats-with-the-pink/#findComment-133645 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 There is a whole fleet of PINK trucks running around NE Ohio. Can't recall the name on the doors, but it sure would be hard to sneak around driving one of those?? Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

VALS327 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Nice Looking truck, The only explanation I have for the pink frame is its primmer and they forgot to apply the final coat of paint. None the less a nice truck.

rsb502 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 You guys all missed out on the very obvious bonus to this truck ............"I got it for my WIFE" if you bought it for your wife surely she couldnt get mad at you for buying another truck to add to your collection, and you could add that you loved her so much you wanted her to share in your hobby knowing she probably wouldnt and you get another truck.

stev Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I emailed the lister. He said it really isn't pink, "more of a red". I think we have a winner for Maddog13407, sounds like it was painted red, and faded, and just "looks" pink. Were it my listing, I think I would have mentioned that in the description.

stev Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 It sold, with less than 5 minutes left, someone bid.Was it one of you? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/26816-mh613-on-ebay-but-whats-with-the-pink/#findComment-134669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Probably the owner bidding under another name. That happens a lot because they are afraid someone will snipe it. Watch for it to be relisted.
