4 RW's, 4 set forward CH's, and a freakin set back aero volvo..........damn thats a big step the other way! Has anybody else noticed that most of the Superliners left in the US are owned by someone that either has a few or has had more in the past, rare to see someone thats had just one RW, ad most are hard pressed to let em go. Mack really should visit the exteneded hood set forward CHU with the MP10 option labelled the Super Liner 3, Id be interested. From playing with a tape measure it would appear that the radiator would be large enough when compared to a Titan and the hood would only need to be 4" to 6" longer.

Just wondering Paul if that truck is a GMC COE, or a Corbit maybe? I'm totally not sure.

It's a 1948 GMC. Here is one from Jim Carters site, and one from Thumpr.

I don't know if the Volvo is theirs, i've never seen it before, and it doesn't have their name on the door. They had 2 more Superliners there that's not in the picture, plus at least one more that I know of that wasn't there that pulls chips and sawdust from a sawmill in Blackstone. They used to have all Superliners when they got started.

John F. Ivory was a BIG moving and storage outfit in Detroit,they used all kinds of trucks and tractors throughout the years. One of their old buildings is used today to warehouse some of GM's experimental and prototype cars and trucks................................Mark
