Red Horse Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 How about every truck builders "Data Books". Anyone remember those? Loose leaf binders about 3 + inches thick and the pages were updated as changes occurred- yearly editions.

james j neiweem Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) Red Horse- I remember a loose leaf binder truck data book that was about 5 by 8 inches I believe it was maroon in color It listed each truck manufacturer and all of the specs and options. I think this was back in the seventies. There might be one on ebay if you knew what to call it.

sodly Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Yeah, I'd like to know what Mack called it. It does make it hard to search for when you don't know if it even exists.... or what it was called, lol.
