storkmack Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 The truck! Any truck picture, especially a Mack, is on the track to greatness. But a Construction Spec’d Anthem? No thanks!

Brocky Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Agree, but at least that yellow one does NOT have the "Devil's Horns" spot mirrors sticking out of the middle of the hood. 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/160/#findComment-451812 Share on other sites More sharing options...
storkmack Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Coming home today and went by M&K in DesPlaines.

storkmack Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 For what I paid, couldn’t pass it up, essential paid scrap value. Hasn’t ran in about 8 years. Tilted the cab and was surprised to not see a turbo! Never now when you need to crane something. 40 foot of boom and 8000# lift capacity. Right now the plan is to get it running and see where that leads. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/160/#findComment-453328 Share on other sites More sharing options...
