I drove trucks for crane companies for a couple of years. This was my usual truck, 379. It was originally red, but was painted white

Here's another 379 we had. It had rear leaf springs and rode terribly

I like "Snort" What da heck is he?

I wonder if AITM makes a cab for him in resin?

Snort is a 1958 Mack LRSVW. Funny, the link posted above I think is the same move as the pictures that I posted. It was a de-methanizer that we moved from Hudson CO to Ft. Lupton CO. In the photos in the link, you can see a box truck following behind in the background, that's what I was driving

Thanks, Andrew.

I really like the photos you have shared  of your Rigs. That Ole' Mack is a Brute. I checked, and it does not look like AITM has anything close to that in Resin.  I wish there was a kit of that truck!
