The Mack R series is a line of Class 8 heavy-duty trucks introduced in the early 1960s by Mack Trucks. It replaced the very successful Mack B series models.[2] R Model production ran for 40 years until the RD model was discontinued in 2004 and the RB and Mack D series DM models were discontinued in 2005. The first R models introduced were powered by Mack Thermodyne diesel and gasoline engines. In 1973 the R cab was given a makeover to include a deeper rear wall for more room and a new dashboard design.

R series
R (left) and RD Mixers
Mack started to produce the R and RW in 1966 for highway use, the RD and all wheel drive RM were for construction and municipal use. The lightweight RL model followed in 1967, the RW Superliner with a large, rectangular hood and grill in 1977, and the setback front axle RB in the 1990s.
In the 1990s the R and RW were discontinued and the RB was introduced, mostly for severe-duty applications. The hood was modified slightly for the model RB. 2004 was the last year for the RD, and 2006 for the RB.
U and DM series
DM Mixer on subway tracks (note offset cab)
The “U” and “DM” series were modifications of the “R” series. A short hood, and the shorter “bumper to back of cab” distance, made them useful in straight trucks and in semi-tractors used in congested cities, but caused the engine to intrude into the passenger compartment. To compensate the cab was offset to the left: the engine “doghouse” intruded into the passenger footwell but left the driver’s position intact.
The U was basically a short R, while the DM was an extra heavy duty version of the U often used in 6X4 construction trucks. Like the RMM, the DMM was all wheel drive, but had not only a short hood/offset cab, but also a set back front axle, requiring a model specific fiberglass hood/fender arrangement.[3][4]
Engine codes
In 1966 they were: EN - Engine (gasoline), END - Engine Diesel, and ENDT - Engine Diesel Turbocharged, with the three number cu in displacement next.
By 1988 the numbering system had changed slightly. The prefix “D" and "T”, no longer needed as all engines were diesel and turbocharged, were discarded, as was the "N". The prefix “M” was for “Maxidyne” wide power range models, C was for California certified engines. A “6” was for the 672 cu in (11.0 L) I6, “9” was for the 998 cu in (16.4 L) V8, in 1987 the "7” 728 cu in (11.9 L) I6 was introduced. The next three digits were the horsepower rating of the engine, and an “L” suffix indicated an "Econodyne" low speed model. An example of the difference would be the ENDT673 and later E6-200 being similar engines. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

The parts you were wondering on the roof are air vents .Inside cab on roof is handle that controls the fresh air intake those viens contol the air flow into that handle operated door
So good to see this kit ! I built this as a Monogram model back in the early eighties and it was such a nice easy build that looked really good . i still have it somewhere but it’s almost definately not in the best condition . I hope they re release the other trucks from that collection , in particular the Chevy Bison , that was the first truck I ever built and I have loved them from that time period ever since !
That's a really great model and the brackets on the roof for a air conditioning unit.
Great job I'm glad they came back out with that mack when I use to drive heavy haul that was the first truck I drove if I wanted ac I opened the vents an roll the windows down it was my favorite truck to drive 13spd with a Cummins engine in it
1/32 scale - not so big it won't sit on a tiny house shelf - not so small you can't detail the heck out of it. And there are LOTS of different kits in the scale. THIS semi tractor build is a great example of this size. Great job on the build - dig the details. Thanks for sharing.
I have two R models in 1/32. I'm waiting on the Superliner in 1/32 . And the these R model r snap type kits. I have the ones with tanker trailers.
Nice to see a big rig on the channel again! This came out really nice Chris. Keep up the good work!
Ya Chris , these were great fun builds. They mostly were branded as snap kits in the 80's. There were several trucks and trailers. My best friend and I built a bunch of them and ran all over the house and yard. Of course my dad was a truck driver too!!!!
Great build
PS the roof detail acted like an air scoop for the roof vent just behind the marker lights. there was also a vent in the middle of the cowl just behind the hood for fresh air through the dash. Talk about your old school "Air Conditioning"... LOL
Cheers from Ontario Canada, EH!

I miss building and still love the old 1/43 amt matchbox model trucks. I've got 1 truck and 1 trailer model still in original wrapped boxes. I just look at them and admire them, lol.
Very nice work, I love it! You don't want to go to sleep on these current 1/32 car and truck kits, they have rather nice detail and build up quite well.
Always a great review! As far as I know, all the snap-together kits are Level 1, branded as 'Snaptite.'
Masterful build sir beautiful
Glad you like it!
Nice one mate! 👍🇳🇿
👍👍👍👍
Thank you Chris for all the models you have done. I have learned some much from you.
Oh for f🤬ck sake....just what I needed, another inspiring hpiguys build video....with the alluring voices of the Syrens from the Greek mythology and beautiful colours!
I'm already waiting on four classic MPC Corvettes, '57 and '60, 830:12, 1-3717, 1-3725 and 6355, a Revell 1965 Chevelle and a 1971 Plymouth Duster....give us a break will you, been drooling over one these Mack's for a good while....I need to be strong, I can do this, look and walk away....😉😆😂
Huh....1/32!?
Didn't even notice that, I built Monogram's 1/32 Aerodyne back in the day....
Looks really good - wouldn't even mind looking at the dog behind, it looks so good.
I like it
Good job
Another semi build! Looking forward to watching
Some Trailer Hoses would top it off nicely.
Cool beans!
Great job, it looks awesome Chris.
I always watch the semis !!
Had to watch in fast-forward, need sleep for work. You did an incredible job on such a simple kit; I built the 78/79 Peterbilt cabover a few years ago in the same scale line. You may have big hands, but watching in fast-forward, you have the skill of a ballerina! (((🤣)))
Planning on getting it to build the Rubber Duck from Convoy
On top of the cab you did perfectly they are air vents for 55 mph air conditioning lol used by a grab handle back in the day!!! Most r models were tin cans no ac lol
This looks like one I can build!
Fantastic build Chris! A classic Mack in great colors. Can't wait for the Bison to be released.
Tom S.😃
These old Snap Tite trucks really go together nicely. Built four of them many years ago. The first one I built was a Freightliner cab over back in 1980 which I've never seen them reissue. I think this Mack came with a tanker trailer at one time but I don't think there were any separate trailer kits; those tended to come in tractor-trailer sets. Another great job; in looking at the thumbnail I thought it was another 25th scale AMT truck.
Mack R semi truck 1/32 scale model kit came out beautiful luv old bulldog look from that era of Mack rigs after mid 2000s there where junk trucks since then.
I love this model. Can't wait to build one
I've got the Revell or Monogram 1:32nd scale MACK R tanker truck that came with the trailer, it's the press fit model, the truck is the same as the one you're doing the build review on the only difference is mine is molded in blue and the tanker trailer is molded in grey and has the sticker decals, I bought this back in September 2010😊❤👍
Excellent job on the Mack R tractor Chris! That red with that striping package really pops!
Hockey sticks 👍👍
Revell have brought that kit out here in Oz with a tank trailer as well with Aussie markings..nice model
The part in between the 3 center marker lights is a roof vent
Those things on roof are air vents for in the cab, and you got them right.
Roof scoops direct air to the vent that pushes open for ventilating the cab.
Nice to see some more 1/32 scale vehicles. I am downsizing and making 1/32& 1/35 kits now so great to see~ love your channel PS. I so do agree that the manufacturers should re issue a lot more of these smaller scale kits.Airfix ,Revell Gunze Sanyo and others to name but afew
One piece mirrors !!! Yes. The worst part of building the big trucks in my opinion. Grat build. 👏👏🇨🇦
That looks really great Chris Yes I would like to see some more 1/32 scale tractors👍👍
Chris this looks great. 1/32 scale would be a good size because it takes up less space. Thanks for the video.
do that in dark blue, add a dump bed get rid of the sleeper, and you have the last dump truck dad drove for years, i love this truck, nice build
I watched the video to see what I had done wrong on my first attempt. The most glaring mistake was I put the Chevy decal on the wrong side of the mud flaps. The Bision was an easy kit, now I m looking forward to the 1/24 kit.
Rubber Duck truck from the 1978 movie Convoy
Looks good!
Love the semis
I was 13 when I built this Mack
I'd love to see this kit eventually include parts to make the Rubber Duck from Convoy.
Great build Chris , built a 40 year old Monogram GMC General a few weeks ago I’ve got a cabinet full of these kits put a little effort in and you’d never know they were a cheap snap kit
Beautiful mate👍
The bit on top of the roof is where the air comes in through the roof for the vent
Looks great, I think it would look better with a second stack on the driver side.
Nice one ! It’s real shame Revell didn’t make this kit in 1/24 or 1/25 ?
Super 😻 😻 😻 😻 😻 😻 😻👍 👍👍👍 👍💯 💯💯
I build one of these as the Mack from The Road Warrior. Took a lot of scratch building and not a single part wasn't modified in one way or another. But it's the end result that counts.
It would be really cool if they could make modern truck models
Those two small things on the cab roof are air intakes for the cab and totally correct placed!!
Truck yeah Chris outstanding job as usual KUTGW
Very handsome build!!
Is this ex-Monogram? They did a 1:32 Mack firetruck too, didn't they?
Nice job, Chris.
Great job on the truck,All the r models I've been arnd and drove had the company name on the radiator guard thats attached to the bumper
Chris that thing that has the marker light in the middle is the air vent for in the cab also called the roof vent
Chris, Great build. You painted your engine yellow. A Mack R would have a Mack engine, which comes from the factory painted Mack gold. And Mack uses a gold bulldog, when the engine is a Mack engine. The bulldog is chrome, when the engine is another brand. I built (first issue- molded in red)one. Cut the sleeper off. Added spoke wheels off the 2 Mack CF firetrucks. And made a scratch built dump box for it. I painted it orange, to be a highway department truck.1/32 scale is a great scale to work with, because the details are just as good as 1/25.
BRASS BULLDOG, NOT GOLD. EVERYTHING ELSE YOU MENTIONED IS CORRECT. I ACTUALLY HAVE A REAL BRASS BULLDOG HOOD ORNAMENT. I'M BUILDING A 80'S CAB OVER MACK SEMI AND I WILL DISPLAY THE HOOD ORNAMENT WITH IT.
@@denniswashburn9662 Thank Dennis for the correction!
I have one that is a KISS end of the road tour truck they also have AC/DC and motorhead tour trucks all three with trailers
1:32nd scale
If you work as a mud flap you must be flexible and willing to travel! LOL!
very nice Chris, When can we see a fórmula 1? Congratulations, nice job
Nice build …Does the silver sharpie wear off over time or if touched ?
It’s a air vent👍
Very nice looking model. You did an impressive job on this one. What do you think of that red spray paint? I’ve heard several really bad comments about that paint. Thanks for sharing.
Sir, the yellow that you used isn't cat yellow. But it's still cool
In real life those are heated mirrors. I know I have replaced enough of them, over the years
When i was a kid my uncle drove a Mack truck and he gave me and my late father a Mack hat pin and i still have them and i'm pushing 60 now that how old they are
Those are air vents on the roof of the cab
Nice job 👍 I'm curious about this floor polish you use. Is that in place of clear coat and how u apply it ?
Also there was a 1/32 scale Kenworth K100 cabover
When you put the clear coat on did you spray paint it or ham brushed it for the body and the fuel tanks and the front windshield
Do they make 1/32nd trailers? I think it would look great pulling a trailer. Great video and a great build, keep up the great work!!!!
Daniel. Yes there was a tank trailer ( which would make a great Rubber Duck with the Mack!!) and a box trailer. I know there was also a rare tank/ flatbed pup trailer. Made. I even had a Dale Earnhardt tuck / drop Trailer and NSCAR race car kit but I sold it !! I wish I never did!!
@@earlwidmeyer2654 that sounds so cool. Hopefully they will do a re-issue of the trailer for the truck.
Breacker 109 This is Rubber Duck
Ah, yeah, 10-4, Pig Pen, fer sure, fer sure
By golly, it's clean clear to Flag Town, c'mon
@@BlueGillage Big 10-4 Buddy
Very nice build and color choices. Crispness of the chrome tree parts was excellent. You have much steadier hands than I would, doing that much brush detailing.
I would buy and build this in 1:25, but have no interest whatsoever in mixing my scale with 1:32. The plastic open-back hollow treadless tires here are especially disappointing. I can even see that hollow inner side on the tandems when the model was being spun around on turntable on camera. To my naked eye, it would be even more noticeable. Agree there should be decals for console and gauges, to sharpen the interior.
Hey brother!! Really love your vids…question,do you have a “Munsters Dragula” on a shelf you would like to sell? Thank you sir!!
I have Mack R conventional Cement truck running around the county that I live in before?
It's the car I saw on Mad Max 2. Am I right?
The thing you can't identify on the roof is a fresh air vent.
Thanks!
Is the same model of Mack Truck from the movie Convoy?
Sort of. This appears to be an R600 while the Convoy truck was an R700. The R700 had a longer hood. The sleeper on the Convoy truck was larger.
@@IamGalvatron Thanks for the info. I recall seeing someone building up a version to re-create the truck from Convoy, it could have been partially scratch built. It even had the duck hood ornament.
@@markshobbybench there is a full resin kit out there as well as the parts to turn the 1/25th AMT Mack kit into the Convoy truck.
@@IamGalvatron Thanks for all the info, I'll have to do some searching on the resin kit
Nice Truck!
A in red?! NO.
Mack R Truck, color in black.
Decals not dekals
Yes. Pronounced De-kal not deck-kill.
Well if this kit was a cabover , it would look like the tractor from the TV series , BJ and the bear .
When you're going to build that 1971 Oldsmobile
that would make a cool convoy replica with a bit of kitbashing the wheels off of the international transtar co, and a bit of scratchbuilding
If you another one make it the rubber duck convoy
