james j neiweem Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 There were a lot more single axle tractors with dump trailers back then. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42922-classic-b-model-about-1966/#findComment-313993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxfymn Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I can barely make out "McClure and Nestor???" on the excavator. Nothing came up on a Google search. The excavator is definitely an old timer. Warner-Swasey Hopto.There is name on the front of the dump trailer, but I just can't make it out. 1 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

HarryS Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 When I clicked on the picture to enlarge it took me to a photo bucket string of about 50 or 60 Mack (mostly Bs) pictures. Really cool.

b615rich Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Thanks for sharing. You put together a lot of nice vintage B shots, but the AC album was amazing. I am always impressed with those logs on the back (4-5 FT! In diam) as well as some of the other cargo - cranes, railroad cars, etc. that's with a 4 or six cyl gas motor and a three or four speed! Thanks again. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42922-classic-b-model-about-1966/#findComment-314133 Share on other sites More sharing options...
