Popular Post Yoos Brothers Construction Posted January 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2014 We just recently aquirred the original cab and hood off the Buckeye Bulldog pulling truck from J R Collins . We told JR were going to make a show truck out of it and were leaving his name on it and paint job on it. I always though it would be neat to have one of his trucks but I never thought it would actually happen in a manner of speaking. This is going to make one really sharp looking Superliner once again I hope .

Oh yeah, great save there on the cab and hood good luck with the build.

PeterMack Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I remember when I would go to N ILL Mack they had a picture of that truck hooked to the sled rollin coal. It was undersome plexiglass at the parts counter. Was a cool picture. Got to see it in person a couple years ago at the Dekalb Co.fair. Cool truck.

It was undersome plexiglass at the parts counter. Was a cool picture. Got to see it in person a couple years ago at the Dekalb Co.fair. Cool truck.I think this is the picture you might be talking about. As far as I know this picture was taken a my local county fair grounds and it was taken when he still called it KILLER. I also have some pictures I'll post tomorrow(IF I REMEMBER ) of it and Mother(JRs old truck he hauled the buckeye with)that my Dad took back in 1985 when it was dam near new. FYI , the doors in the pictures are not chopped.

brutus998 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 That is awesome Josh. I have both of those pictures too. The older one is sitting in a frame by my computer besided me. I was talking with JR a few weeks ago and we were talking about the older picture and he told me to check out the girl by the bulldog(on the hood) with the nice rack in the blue shirt lol. Anyone who knows JR would get a laugh at that.

Maddog13407 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 talked to Jr 2 years ago when he pulled at Fonda Speedway. I showed up in my B model and he came right over in his golf cart. talked to me for an hour or so about Mack motors and 673 turbos and 711's and everything. he asked what my truck had and then goes I know its a 711, I heard it pull off the track and could tell. nice guy Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34406-new-toy-in-the-collection-the-original-buckeye-bulldog-cab-and-hood/#findComment-230281 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats funny you mention that because the girl in the blue shirt in the picture is actually my cousin Charlotte!

Popular Post Yoos Brothers Construction Posted February 16, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2014 Here's the pictures of the Buckeye Bulldog and Mother back in 1984 and 1985 when they where both almost new. Notice the still factory blue paint on the front of the exhaust manifolds . The first 2 pictures are older. These are some my favorite pictures. Enjoy Guys.Thanks, Josh 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34406-new-toy-in-the-collection-the-original-buckeye-bulldog-cab-and-hood/#findComment-232995 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macktech689 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I used to work at Sidley Mack, JR kept his trucks in their shop. Never thought I'd see that paint job again!
