Nice looking vents on the front of the trailer.

Thank you Jim. Those vents were etched for Love Machine project with other parts. Soon I will picture them alltogether. Although lately I realize my mistake: holes in vents should be round.

Sergey, one guy here seems quite knowledgeable for Mack products, its ap40rocktruck.

i think Richard used to work for Mack. So you might want to ask him.

I'm following this build with great interest as I'm planning to build one myself in the future.

One thing tho' the name of the driver (handle: "Love Machine"/"Pig Pen") of the Paulie Hauling Mack Cruiseliner in the movie is apperantly Bobby and not Paulie.

That's the name Martin "Rubber Duck" Penwald says when he wants Melissa to help "Pig Pen" in the meeting with the New Mexico Governor Jerry Haskins when he himself is leaving to get "Spider Mike" in Alvarez TX.

Burt Young who played "Pig Pen" has played a caracter named Paulie in the Rocky movie from 1976, and some says that the Paulie Hauling name comes from that and it could possibly be so as the Rocky movie predates the Convoy movie wich are from 1978...but I don't know.

Hi dear colleagues.

I'm gonna write an article to TMW about Love Machine and there is little probleme:

can anyone tell me, who have rights for these pictures?:

Whose authorization should I ask, if I want to use them in article?

Those pictures are screen captures from the movie so the original owner of the rights should be MGM as in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

MGM Studios Inc.

245 N Beverly Dr

Beverly Hills, CA 90210

USA

Phone: (310) 440-3000

I'm looking forward to more updates on this build.
