Green Dash Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 It does look good. Someone on here is really into U models, but I don't remember who.

41chevy Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Marinello has some nice stuff once in a while. Had that 3 place wide U model a few months ago on C .list.

Had that 3 place wide U model a few months ago on C .list.That's a Long Island Banana Truck next to the U. I wonder how that business is doing since the whole mistress, cocaine, death thing took place. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39354-single-axle-u-model-tractor-on-cl-5500/#findComment-283507 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are Medium and Small going to do when Large has to be in the passenger seat at all times and Extra Small is the only one who can drive? You might wanna hold out for something a bit for stable, like an R model Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39354-single-axle-u-model-tractor-on-cl-5500/#findComment-283562 Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Yes we got no bananas... we got no bananas no more" They were around for long time. I used to see them loading bananas at the piers when I was a kid. They ran a rented IH Transtar with the name "Banana Transfer, Lynbrook, NY" on the doors.

james j neiweem Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Looked on the Marinnelo web site and they have that Mayberry U Model wide cab. That definitely looks like an F model cab (Bud-N model etc,)These cabs were made in house so I guess they could experiment.KS do you know if any more of these were built. Looks like a Mack attempt to trial balloon a wide cab conventional. Very curious.

suejoe6174 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Found out that the cab mounts are rusted out. Other than that the truck is not bad.
