Sweet. I know that trucks got a V8, is it 400, 450 or 500?

Vinny,

This one has the 450 with a twelve speed andd 44 rears. Mike, I think about that every time I'm up top setting the straps. My goal is to put on a roll off so I can a manure tank on it too.

I love this truck!

I think I've seen this truck before but can't remember when.

The guy who sold me this is top shelve. I found your new Cruiseliner badges I will bring up with me soon and you need to post a picture of your vintage red white and blue Mack shirt, it is awesome.

Jim, That is a sound I'm sure you'll never forget!

You almost have to get out and look before crossing the tracks, that's a lotta real estate between you and the dog! I'd love to have a square hood in front of me again now that I'm not having to squeeze a 65 foot truck into docks that were designed in the 1930's.

For sure Jim, nothing sweeter and I did have to fully stop do to the angle of those tracks. I too don't miss running to NYC and northern NJ with a 48 x 102 trailer. Some places in NYC we could only run the 13 high, narrow trailers.post-426-0-50874300-1361672486_thumb.jpg

That trucks a beast. I can tell its Canadian built from the battery box lids.

It is from Canada Vinny, good eyes. Hope to sand blast the frame and full paint job this summer. I like having no crome on this one...post-426-0-71431800-1361673419_thumb.jpg

If you have an interest in trucks, and trucking experiences (tales and lies) in Australia check out the following website:

http://forums.justoldtrucks.com // Peter J's Place // Down Under AU, NZ it is getting up on 90 pages long with lots of truck pictures with some roos and snakes and guns and slang definations etc etc all mixed in

I also like your superliner.. are those floats on the steering??

Thank you Brocky, I will look that up. I enjoy seeing some awesome trucks from our mates down under and have been given some great books and literature about them. The fronts are floats and have not had any trouble steering with them in my weather conditions.
