I remember reading that FTF trucks bought and refurbished older and ex military macks and sold a lot of them to the middle east.FTF trucks took over the Mack assembly plant and workforce in Holland when Mack pulled out.They went on to make their own designs with Detroit engines and Alison transmissions.FTF trucks were and still are held in high regard in Europe.They made some very special order trucks too.

Any of the 9000 series and some of the 4000 series IH's had the short seat that sat on the heater box. Most any of those that had the Eagle package have air ride seats. I believe the visors were built by Lund. Good luck. they are as about as scarce as new windshields for that truck. Looks like a nice ride. Best of luck to ya

a company i dealt with had 5 duetz powered giants with mixer barrels on them. the drivers loved them -
Goodmorning, Sorry for the late response. This cold snap makes life difficult to find time lately. The price is pretty much as low as i can go, and I am only trying to break even from what I have into them. The Superliner sleeper with all parts and original interior is $1,500. and the Ford LTL900 sleeper complete with the original frame cradle is $2,500. I would do a package deal of $3,800 for both. They are getting hard to find. They are very much snowed/froze in right now and I would recommend looking at them after the thaw. I have a bunch of guys claiming to come look at them IF I still have them by Spring. I am in Sweet Valley, PA. 18656. Thanks for the interest! Amos (570)822-9430

Mack B873sx restoration

Is that the air intake hose? Napa would be my first go to. I used a piece of aircraft SCAT tubing for my intake hose on my B73, as it was missing along with the whole engine. It's available in many different sizes and colors. Not too expensive, wire reinforced silicone impregnated fiberglass tubing. It has a lot of uses, fire resistant. Just google SCAT tubing and a lot of sources will come up. -

Osterland in Carlisle PA used the Deutz air cooled engines in their Diamond REO Giants up until about 1990 when the Deutz would not pass EPA regulations anymore. -
