Good show Mark. I remember when BPS had the shop Shaffer has now and all those red macks. Was a large company here in Coos County. The ownwer of the KG Ranch in Catching Creek drove for them many years. One beautiful Model of an old long gone unit.

That's real nice - and being a Mack R it's even nicer! (I did my commercial licence road test on a Mack R!  ) |

The real one was a 73 model it had a 325 Mack V8 and a 5 speed with 2 sticks. My model has them too. I robbed a DM800 for them.

Thanks Dave
The blue freightliner cab over is built after one I used to walk by on my home from school every day and I am working on a 77 Western Star that belonged to 3son logging and it was the first truck I ever rode in No pics of it yet
