What MACK cabover model and year
BOB DINGSDALE replied to JeffL's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
we had a company here that had 4 MB 400's with Scania engines.they were in the shop more than on the road and they were only running about 8 miles per round trip 5days aweek 24 hrs a day.if they were the MB 600 with the 673 diesel it would have been a different story. -
is this the 1710 or the 1486 cid engine
-
wouldn't look too bad if the headlite houseings weren't there
-
nice model.i hope he puts proper mirrors and brackets on it.
-
why do they put there turn signals, parking lights so dam close to the headlites?
-
not to be picky but whats with the FORD cigerette lighter.nice set up though.loved that model
-
notice the BIG mirrors on that J model

floor mat
BOB DINGSDALE replied to BOB DINGSDALE's topic in Exterior, Cab, Accessories and Detailing
pattern would be easy to reproduce but it's the MACK script lettering between gear shift levers and rear edge -
could any body give me a clue as to what I should be asking for a [L] model NOS floor mat would be worth.I was going to put it my LJSWX but never got around to it.It is uncut -no holes-.

Canadian Challenger
BOB DINGSDALE replied to mrsmackpaul's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Well built truck. I drove one for a year. They were built right here in Port Alberni. Most were built with the E9s, a couple with the KTA600 and one with a 3408 Cat. John bought the two coal dump's back and is now rebuilding them back to sell. They had the DD149T@600 hp when new, but one has a KTA600 now, 8000 series Allison 6-speed with Clark BD121 rears. He loves to have people drop in and look things over. -

maybe the AUssie's can be talked into putting steering wheel on left and exporting them -
update on the HD with 8V71 It's sold

if he's looking for a hdx there are a bunch on VANCOUVER ISLAND for sale but must be low bedded out of B C .if he's looking for COE he would be quicker to convert a Mack F model or 70's PETE .only need badgeing and grill surround. quite a few highway size HD's around for sale.I know of a HD off highway size for sale. 8V71, 5x4, 4640 Timken rears ,12.00x25 tires.

once you've painted the brackets who's to know.that is the right booster sizes because of the lining size and diameter.if you V out the crack on hub and weld it up it will be as good as new. it is done all the time.405th B46 made .not bad.the crd number is style the next long number is the part number and the last is the ratio. hope this helps you.

BOB DINGSDALE replied to 41chevy's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
41chevy: is this the only picture he sent you.I seen a AC and AB in Bellingham area a few years ago .The A B 's dump had a diamond on its side with the letter B in side diamond.the AC had a shovel mounted on it.further in his yard there was a Diamond T 900 series army issue. the B stood for BLOEDEL who had a saw mill in BELLINGHAM Washington. -
41chevy: Bob Brown had a AC crane carrier at the 86 convevtion in Seattle .Is one of yours his or is his still out west?

I have a LJ tag for your rad brace pm me .i would not fool around with 24 volt system .your better off going to 12 volt. all it takes is a 12 volt starter and a little rewiring to starter. two 12 volt batterys then if you have problems down the road you can jump start off a 12 volt car. I did this to my LJSWX and starts like a hot dam. same engine as yours..220 CUMMINS.I put a gold bulldog on mine because the truck is a 55 and is older than 50 years which is gold in anneverse time.
