dumpsterToyTR,

Those are nice old trucks!! I especially like the long-wheelbase Mack B-61. Is the yellow Mack an L-Series?? And what scale are those trucks?? I'd take all three. Thanks for posting.

All three are 1/48 1/50 scale. The yellow Mack is an LTL model. My favorite is the G.M.C. Gimmy Cannon Ball. I can remember a frieght comany that ran them in the early fifties and you could hear them coming from a long ways away.

The GMC was made by Lou Kroach, The Mack LT was made by Don Mills, and the B Model I believe was also made by Lou Kroach.
