SOLVED: si_729 - Mack - Mid Liner - MS

Sometimes first impressions are deceptive...
Manufacturer and type of this lorry are sufficient as an answer.

Locked for Bill, because it's a Mack. The only question is what kind.

Yes, it is a Mack Mid-Liner MS. I have no information as to whether it is an MS200, MS250 or MS300.
So you deserve the point.
Btw: There was also a bonnet version with this cab, it was called CS.

Easy, fingers in the nose
The CS was used in racing in the European championship by a French driver. I had an aperitif with the team mechanics on their stand at Castellet in a distant time

I enjoyed these races in the late 80's. We didn't suffer from thirst and boredom.  :lmao: :lmao:
