Brian Blaylock Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the R-700 ceased production with the introduction of the Superliner in 1979 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48218-1985-r700/#findComment-357159 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lightweight RL model followed in 1967, the RW Superliner with a large, rectangular hood and grill in 1977, and the setback front axle RB in the 1990s. In the 1990s the R and RW were discontinued and the RB was introduced, mostly for severe-duty applications. The hood was modified slightly for the model RB. 2004 was the last year for the RD, and 2006 for the RB Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48218-1985-r700/#findComment-357186 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddog13407 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 beige interior ended in the early 80's I think then in went to black or the silver. I thought the western r700 ended with the superdog or they overlapped for a few years and the eastern one ended in the early 80's as well Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48218-1985-r700/#findComment-357280 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbigrig Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 The R 700 here is legit. It's a Canadian ex military with a 350 Cummins and a 15 fuller. There was an order of about 10 or 15 of them built in Oakville assembly NOT in Hayward or whatever. These trucks were well kept with very low miles. This truck however has a cracked rail (dbl frame) above one of the new way air bags. He wants $10k cdn and won't take a penny less. Goes on about he will part it out for more money then sell it complete for less. My father did PDI's on these at Toronto Branch Mack back in the 80's 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48218-1985-r700/#findComment-358116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
