Mack B TRUCO Scope per request - 1958 F.W.D. - 11-14-2015

Heh. That didn't take long. Knew it wouldn't. I'm kinda surprised that one one on here has posted it yet. Here it is, the one and only picture, known in existence- of the B-Model with the TRUCO boom (Not Eaton, per Mike Martinelli.) Credit to the unknown photographer and from the Chad Lilly Collection.

After I posted that request last night on my FB page (and in the SPAAMFAA Group) a close friend of mine sent this to me. Seems he's been sitting on it for years.


Mack and Truco never finished the truck- no body was ever fabricated or installed, due to this being at the end of the B's production run. As we all know, the first true production Scopes were on C Model Chassis.
