While watching over my wife after her minor surgery, I got to wondering how many MACKS are/were in Cuba after the embargo started. Looked at a Cuban site of truck photos and looked at an English site on the Cuban National Auto Museum. I only found two. One is a 1915 AC thats been modified over the years with a Soviet Diesel. It was put in the 'museum' in 1he mid 70's. The B is at a rebuilding shop and tagged as a 1964 but I think it's older (?). Most old trucks seem to be Ford,GMC, Chevy and I.H.. The newer U.S trucks are I.H and Freightliners, the balance are Russian, Indian and Chinese. Surprised that there isn't more MACKS in Cuba.

Any one have some photos?

I believe I saw the B model for sale on some online auction in the U.S. before I just cant seem to remember which one.I do believe it was at a truck wreckers though has anyone else remember it?

I had seen it in TruckPaper - fairly certain it was being sold by these folks.
