Popular Post PeterMack Posted May 17, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2015 Made it to the truck show at maggios today saw mr Peter Mack but he was busy polishing and signing autographs lol love your b model and the Petes love that diamond t and international westcoaster very nice I must sayYou should have grabbed me, I'm sure I was just telling lies and bullshitting. I could have done without driving through the rain to get there,had to wipe the trucks off for a bit. Wasn't to many Mack's there, just Al's, mine and the little yellow B67 wrecker that was there last year.I didn't take a lot of pictures this year but for all the Brockway fans there was a cool one that came down from Wis and had a Holmes 750on the back of it. I have pictures of the Diamond T and the Westcoaster but these were from shows in the past. Both of these trucks areowned by Patrick O'hare from Byron who is now our ATHS chapter vice pres. 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/92/#findComment-290190 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 These kids nowadays have no sense of adventure.I think having a friend's wedding reception to go to ( free beer ) had alot to do with it also.

Popular Post PeterMack Posted May 21, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2015 A friend of mine was at the Lilac parade in Lombard last Sunday and told me about a "cool" RS that was in the parade. I said I've seen that truck before, I think I know who it belongs to:) He sent me a couple pics of it and a neat army truck and the Zipprich trucks. I'm surprised that there was that many trucks in the parade. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/92/#findComment-290660 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackdaddy2030 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I know they are not MACKS, but thought you'd like to see the new Plote purchase. They are getting the wet kits put in at Mark's Machine Shop in Sycamore. Fuzz said that he thinks they bought five CATS and 10 MACKS. I guess Heil is doing the MACKS. The CATS were $10,000 more then the MACKS, but they have the CAT automatic so maybe that's why? Though he said they shifted pretty hard.

Mackdaddy2030 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 A friend of mine said that he has a friend that is gonna start driving for a new, 2nd, minority division of "D" Construction. He doesn't know the name of the company, but I guess they bought 12 brand new trucks and trailers. He's not sure if they are MACKS or not, but I'm kinda guessing that they are. I told him to have his friend send him picks when he starts working and to send them to me.
