Now take a look at this beauty says Biglorryblog. Isn't she a honey? Afficianados of the bulldog breed down-under will already know that this is a 1964 Mack B61. You can find the picture of this wonderfully-restored example, along with others within the superb 'Heritage Mack Trucks' section of Mack Trucks Australia's terrific website.

Now here's one for cabover fans---a 1971 Mack F model, again in tip-top classic condition. But I've saved the best till last.

And here it is, the 1988 Bicentennial Super Liner bonneted behemoth. And Biglorryblog says a big-up to MTA for preserving the very best of its history on its website--other manufacturers take note. This is how to showcase your past. Now click through here for a couple of more modern Mack models.

Mack is the meaning of pure power and function for us in Iran.

The B-Model with the roller on the back is the most photographed of the B-Models anywhere in Australia and it belongs to the named company who is run by one of my good Facebook buddies, Luke Refalo!

It's the B model for me too. I drove one with 3 cattle trailers for Buntine Roadways in Katherine(NT) in the '60s.
Changing gears on dirt roads with 2 sticks and steering with the crook of the elbow is something not to be forgotten!

Just looked again at the first picture and realised a 2nd memory for me. Before driving the Mack for Noel Buntine I drove a roller very much like that for the Queensland Main Roads Dept, in Sarina (QLD).
