    This R model completely redone front to back to new condition. Owner has this truck since the 80's, nice AC setup, condenser out front, and unit under riders seat. 88 RW glider, E6 power, eatons on Hendrickson springs, stopped just long enough to fix tire problem. FW

    I said it before the welding field will take many places in life. When I started the destination place was the Alaska pipeline, did not go there but many other places. The goodbyes are tough, I wish the best for both of you, FW

    The 11x24's will be about one inch from the fender on the bottom, 12's closer. Mack made a fender for this application with a little more clearance at the bottom, it has a P2 or P3 in the suffix of the part number. In the late 80's the parts system had about 6-7 of these, when I got them some were standard b model fenders. I also got a B model that had one of these fenders on one side. (noticed the difference putting on the front flaps). FW

    At the 2000 ATHS Show in Reno NV, I was able to see your truck just after the late owner finished it. The LT is my favorite model and this truck was done period correct. You are giving the care this truck deserves. Thanks for sharing. FW

    I have a 6-110 that is from a Euclid 22 ton haul truck, it has a Spicer trans. and air assist clutch. I have never had it running. The "Budliner" rail cars used this engine and they have a different sound from your typical Detroit. The haul truck had twin air cleaners like the Mack. The HP is probably in the low 3's. I do like the truck, especially Macks with vendor engines. Behind this engine is a P&H diesel which is two cycle design. FW

    This was done to my B61SX around 1970, I have had the the truck since 1980 and never cared much for it but, left it on there. Very similar striping. FW

    In the late 60's they enlarged Revere beach, hauled in nice sand for couple months, hundreds of thousands of yards. They depleted several sand pits, ten wheelers, some tractor dumps, and large bulldozers pushing it. When they just finished the work a huge storm took all the sand out to sea in a couple of days. They did the job a second time, "the good ole days" . FW

    It is either Dan or his son from Romania, as they both trade on Ebay. They are the only one's that have the 60's N and F series in 1/25 as far as I know. FW

    Awhile back someone wanted information about this truck. I took this photo about 1989 at the Barrington NH show and what I remember is Yarworski's were either buying or selling it, will be corrected if wrong. I think it only had NH 220 power and not much $. Whoever was standing next to me took the same picture and it got in the WOT. The little girl is my daughter. FW
