This is 1975 Mack M65AX 65 ton end dump truck from Ralph Ratcliffe. Mack applied this patriotic paint scheme to many of their demonstrator and show trucks in the mid '70s. The model is completely scratchbuilt from molds Ralph made from his own master patterns and cast the parts in urethane resin that he has recently released as a kit. Previously featured in Photo Galleries 278 and 418.
