Looks like an EMPL body from Austria on the back.

Wicked old Jersey Modified. Gil Hearne dominated Wall Stadium back in the day.

An interesting fact is there was a Durkin Construction connection. The same Durkin as on this very board.

We had some Empl bodies on Volvos in Iraq, they were pretty nice, sometimes a pain to not have two big winches but it was strong.

I think that rig is outta East Canton. They have a shop on Rt 30, at the top of the hill west of town. They usually have a few R models out by the road. Never seen this beast before!

If not, it is painted just like the place in East Canton.

I see Mid East on the door, can't make out the rest of it. I took that pic. from a good ways away too, and i've already resized it. It was parked at the Go Mart on I-70 east of Cambridge, across from the old Shenandoah truckstop.

That is a serious winch behind the cab on that KW, the 55k winches on a HET look small compared to those suckers.
