Popular Post other dog Posted September 2, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2013 by accident- I was looking for a Diamond Reo I once saw in S.C. on google earth. Saw it in 2009, but I remembered the general area, and saw this Superliner sitting there when I was looking. 7 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted September 2, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2013 Didn't see any U models by the road, could be some there...they had a lot of old units there. Here's one of the pics. I posted here when I stopped there. Had one of a green mixer too, but I must have deleted it. 4 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Green Dash Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Anyone know when Diamond Reo stopped offering the small cab? I believe it was still in production in the late 60's, long after the White cab became available.I think it should be mandatory that, when posting pictures, it is noted whether or not any U models were spotted. I might save a reply here and there. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mike Posted January 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2014 Been trying for several years to get a photo of this SuperLiner but could not get close enough yet. It is to the left either loading or unloading. It is a tandem with a tank on the back and is some Enviromental Company. I'm still going to get closer photo next time.Tried to go look at the B Model but as I continued up the drive a sign stopped me and read "NO TRESPASSING" so I backed down the long driveway to the main road. I did get to set my camera for a closeup this time.mike 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vision386 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 That looks like a pretty nice B-Model Mike! I know what you mean about the no-trespassing signs,place near here has several Macks way back off the road,hard to see for all the trees,but they have NO TRESPASSING signs allover and i'm not looking to get shot taking a few pictures! I have located a B and H-Model and a K-series International behind some sort of salvage business too,but there never seems to be anyone around to ask permission for a "look see" Lol!.................................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

Brocky Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 In reference to the REO cabs: When White Motor bought REO and DT in 58 & 59 it ended the DT association with IH and the Comfovision cab. In 1969 the production was combined in the REO plant Lansing Mich using the REO cab as standard with an option of the Autocar cab. By about 1965 the Autocar cab became the standard for road tractors and the REO cab continued for vocational work. The Diamond REO name was created on May 1st, 1967 and used both cabs a described before. Quote Brocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
