Some of the chassis components like cross-members had both Mack part numbers and Brockway part numbers. However, Brockway never offered any Mack engines, transmissions, suspensions or axles. Brockway had it's own plant in Cortland NY while Mack was still in Allentown PA, they never shared the same factory or production line

Cheers. The super liner story is pretty cool.

So, does anyone remember the Autocar Astro Hauler or the Marmon Moon Raker?.... :o

Ive never heard of either. Is that the Autocar turbine COE(white 7000)?

Dennis,the re-released DM-600 kit represents a pre 1972 cab,so the factory interior (with few exceptions) would be a mint/light green color (Krylon "Sea Glass" is a close match) Late in 1972 into 73 the steeldash was changed to the more modern style "plus 3" cab,most of which were tan inside.................here is a picture of a model with the Krylon color I mentioned (not my build,found on the internet)..........................................Mark
