Popular Post mackdaddy Posted July 12, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2013 I have had the good fortune of meeting some really fine Australian truck guys and some are really die hard Mack.. Three came into Medford and drove trucks with me up to Yakima and then I met up with Tony and his group at the show. They came back with me and spent a few days in the area. Check out the wood work done on the interior of the B model. 7 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31905-tony-champion-macks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackdaddy Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 The wheels appear to be the Alcoa anniversary 24.5's. Another Aussie Mack........ And my favorite Mack of all the Valueliner. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31905-tony-champion-macks/#findComment-193771 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullfuel01 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 mackdaddy,if you ever met this guy again, please shake is hand for me. Amazing job on the B model. Just enough modern with the classic old style. Wow! sleeper fits, air cleaner fits good with the truck. nice visor, big and short stacks. I love it. did he put an E9 in the truck?

Lmackattack Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 That's one of the nicest b model /modern resto I have seen. It's still 100% classic with modern touches that would make it so much nicer to drive full time than if it was 100% stock.

Brocky Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 ATHS is sponsoring / promoting a trip to Australia in August 2015. One of the stops will be a visit to Tony's collection as well as the big show in Alice Springs.There is some rough information on the ATHS site in a topic titled " Its on. a tour of Down Under". There is supposed to be more details in the May / June issue of WOT and the travel agent will be at the ATHS booth in Springfield MO. My wife and I are planning on going.Here is the link? http://forums.aths.org/175993 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31905-tony-champion-macks/#findComment-236517 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mackdaddy Posted March 9, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2014 My wife and I are making plans to be over in 2015 too. Tony's Titan is my ride to Alice Springs!!!!.......... by that time I should have plenty of left hand stick time in the Valueliner!! But I could settle for just about any one of the trucks he has in his collection. 5 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31905-tony-champion-macks/#findComment-236532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

2stacksuperdog Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I like their titian better the one here.

41180 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Yeah I wish the North American titans had that grill. But atleast they gave us something better looking than the cl and the mp10 is better than having a under powered e7 or a Cummins isx in a Mack heavy hauler Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31905-tony-champion-macks/#findComment-236724 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackdaddy Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 I have not compared it yet but my understanding is that the 50 anniversary Titans built the hood is also a taller with less slope than the standard model??
