  1. On my friends LTL and LFSW it was on frame rail at the back of the cab.My LJSWX is on the fire wall .The ones on the LTL and LFSW are not a common looking BW style.
  2. if front axle comes right off the ground and truck won't drive does this mean power divider not working.in a 55 B model with 44000 rears.sat for 20 years in garage wiyh no oil in it.
  3. My dads B60 hade a 464@170 hp (no letter) with up draght carb the second B60 had a 464A@ 185 hp with side draght carb.Don't what the 464B had.thanks for info on engine in B 68.
  4. like Marvin Comer told me once you could never be sure what Mack did.
  5. what size engine was in B 68s.only seen one and that was at ATHS show in Spokane WA in 95
  6. I was lucky.My brother a house with a garage that had a whole lot of B C plates .One mint set was for 1948 which is vintage of my EQSW.Number on plate reads-- K9-486 and green with white letters.but we can't register it with them here in B C .
  7. another question for the fire truck guys.Does any one know if and where the only LT open cab fire truck is.was made for a calif. fire dept and in 90's was still registered in Mack registery.someone had a model of it on ebay earlier this year.
  8. I know Washington state has that licence plate law.I think my friend had to display his on the rear.He also had the same year only different number on the front.I don't remember if it was the front or rear that it was registered to.Wish they had that law here.
  9. quession for you fire truck guys.Some L model Macks had L model front fenders and some had E or A model front fenders.Was this a order or something else.
  10. fastest way would be to take it off and wash it out with solvent or someother good cleaner.then check compressor for pumping oil.
  11. these are all from Hankstruckpictures web site because I don't know how to put mine from camera onto here.There were 80 trucks registered.The LMSW L is a friends Mack.
  12. was the wiper motor above the windshield or under dash.I have a Mack ad of a fleet of B63 log trucks that had wipers on top of windshield.No holes in cowl to indicate that it was a owners job.Very rare to look at.
  13. Picked up a 24x36 picture of Tucker Smiths .A BIGBOY pulling a frieght across plains near Green River WY.for $5.00.Nice addition to the train room.
  14. The first ones had 12V71s with Allison 5960's then they went to KTA's with the 6061 Allisons.They were built and designed for Menzie Bay Div of MacMiillan Bloedel just north of Cambell River B C .I think there was 29 built in total.A lot of them are still hauling logs at the north end of Vancouver Island and Queen Charletts.All were built in Ontario plant as cab and chassis then came to Vancouver to be fitted for water tanks,bunks and trailers at Columbia Trailer.
  15. yep Hadley horn cover.Anyone need one?
  16. you must be around Jim Whittaker place.Got two logging trailers from him a few years ago.One is now on my LJ in Port.Big truck show at McLeans Mill labor day weekend also Salmon festival.Lots of BS.

  18. you easterns have all the luck with big steam.love the big steam engines.specially on my HO layout.BIG BOYS,CAB FORWARDS,611 of NORFOLK WESTERN.all we have here in town is a little saddle tank 2-8-0 on a 5 mile run.logging engine and a 42 ton shay not running.
  19. there is a 52 Mack L on Ebay today under MACK TRUCK .might be of interest to you.
  20. Looking through my july/august 1975 magazine I found a article on a AUTOCAR model DC9964U off-set cab.Has any one seen one back east?Model in book shows a dump truck with Cummins PT 270 high torque rise engine,Fuller TO955ALL trans,SUDD rears,on Hendrickson rubber blocks,FL-931 front axle,Ross HF64B power steering.Has Fruehauf dump box.Question for the Autocar experts?Were there very many made and is there any left.Nice looking truck.
