Mr mopar Posted March 1, 2021 Author Share Posted March 1, 2021 The last time I ever seen this was at Sourkraut's Model truck and it was sold out ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincen47 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Very nice. I managed to find one a few years back. I’d have to dig it out to compare, but it might be the same resin kit you have there with the side skirts and tall sleeper. On a side note, I remember doing a bit of research and reading somewhere that Mack never made a factory CL 700 with a sleeper - but I wasn’t able to confirm this from any other source or online photos. Anyone know for sure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincen47 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) Beautiful rigs you have there. That’s similar to the look I was going for when I get around to building mine. The CL series certainly had many options, including sleepers, but what I read was that the heavier-spec 700’s were more for vocational, heavy-haul, and construction, and the slightly lighter spec’d CL 600’s, like the CH series, were mostly for over-the-road use, with the 613 model being the most popular. That’s were I had read about the daycab 700’s. But, like most manufactures, I’m sure the customer could spec the truck the way they desired. Besides, I think the CL 6xx and 7xx pretty much looked the same from the outside, with the same cab, hood, etc. Edited March 3, 2021 by vincen47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
