Popular Post 57 bcr Posted August 20, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2013 Sorry,no R model (although he ran several in his day),These trucks belong to W. (Willard) Smith Cartage of Crystal Lake,Ill. I had to put this picture in the thread to celebrate Willard's 90th birthday,today! Happy Birthday,Mr. Smith! Incidently,he got his color scheme from the "Golden 300 Series" he bought new in '74. 4 Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!

bulldogbred Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Haven't been on my account in years and just sat here and read all these Chicagoland r models posts. Lot of northern illinois history of Mack's here. Some guys had been asking the story on some of Mark Meade EXcavatings trucks...... They are all alive and export free sitting in our sheds. My RS700 hasn't had plates in 4 yrs....... I doubt we will ever part with our R models. Although we did sell our lowboy CL to Chicagoland paving. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/37/#findComment-200914 Share on other sites More sharing options...
