Hillbilly Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I been building on this I was planing on using this Mack to pull the trailer but it looks kinda small in front of it so i`m not sure any more, what do you think??? I tried this one in front and it looked better i think, i`m not sure. What do you think, shall i go for the Mack or build a coe truck or another conventional??

Chris guthro Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Go with the cabover! That mack needs a lowboy and a dozer behind it haha. Nice builds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Johnny Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Go with the cabover! That mack needs a lowboy and a dozer behind it haha. Nice builds! Or a dump trailer. Back when I was a kid all the bull racks around here were being pulled with cabovers. Mostly Internationals or Petes with a few KW 123's scattered in.

Jim B Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Maybe these will give you some ideas. With GMC Astro/95: With Chevrolet Titan/90: Ok, so those are sort of the same truck! It'll look good behind whatever you decided to put in front of it. Maybe the Peterbilt 352. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle potts Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Like everyone else I say go with the cabover. In the days that this rig was on the road they were almost always pulled by cabovers. I agree a new one would be nice, but i don't see it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freightshaker Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I'd go with a kw. Stretched out. Conventional or cabover works but Up my way the Spencer's pull cattle in old w900a's. They run sharp units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 Thanks for all the feedback. Nice Titan and Astro Jim Awsome KW Freghtshaker it`s just one thing wrong with it It`s not mine Well i have decided it`s going to be a Kenworth coe for this trailer.

Jim B Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks, Gard. A KW COE would be very "period correct" for the Wilson trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truck parts Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Cabover would be cool looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redneckrodder Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 an aerodyne kw coe would look sweet in front of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
