wingman Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I'm restoring a B-65 that was originally a Mason Dixon Lines tractor. I'm trying to find anyone with good close-up photos of the door logo for Mason dixon, that can be digitally reproduced for decals. Any help would be appreciated.

other dog Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 All I have is a faded handshaker. Try Hank's Truck Pictures and just search his site for Mason Dixon, i'm sure there's tons of pictures there.never mind...too little too late!

Freightrain Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Yup, figured freight companies are going to be short hooded versions to get all the trailer they can. Probably concave cabs to boot. And likely no one wanted them! Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

Green Dash Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Be strong. Find solace in the fact that the B-67 drivers did not have to shoe horn themselves into a concave cab on a daily basis. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28648-mason-dixon-lines-b-65/#findComment-149093 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, BobHere is a White 3000 with the logo off a Mason-Dixon trailer. He told me they were different on the truck-they said Mason-Dixon---Kingsport, TN. I will send you a PM with his phone number. He has a B 67 model with a trailer and he took the trailer to a sign shop in Fairfax, VA and they made the magnetic logo for him. I might be able to get you a close up late this week.

I thought I had a picture of Fred Craig's trailer but I cannot find it.Fred got the blue background for his trailer. I knew Fred and have one of his trucks. Fred got the logo from Chuck at Jack of Arts, but it was hand painted on aluminum. I need a good digital photo to be able to make decals. Chuck is also looking for me, but has not come-up with anything yet.

Maddog13407 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 yup, Schwerman used roadrangers behind Thermodynes as well as a few others. and the B67's has the one short strip on the side. the B65's i have seen had a little longer fender that a B67 and had all the strips on the side like a B61 but were crammed in and it had an aluminum hood. i had and sold a NOS driver fender for one to Kevin All a few years ago. it came from Red Star Express in Utica Ny as they ran B65's Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28648-mason-dixon-lines-b-65/#findComment-149169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
