Replacing the valve cover gaskets. Looking for the torque specs on the valve covers...don't want to over or under tighten. 1960 - Standard 673 Thermodyne (non-turbo) (twin gaskets) Thanks!

You have a very nice truck. As far as selling it and looking for a price?!?! It's my opinion that whoever suggested $10K hasn't looked for one in that condition for some time. My story: I live in the southeastern U.S., I looked for a 75% restored (or better) for almost 2 years before I purchased mine (I did quit a bit of research/looking/calling/visiting). There are much more junkyard trucks around, but not any in your condition down here. I didn't have my truck a month and was still restoring minor items, when a well know (in our area) building contractor offered me $20K (he said his father-in-law had been looking for one for a long time)...I still have the truck! From the looks of your truck and the work you've done, I wouldn't take a dime less than $22K. I live in a city that has a population of over 340,000, and me and one other guy are the only ones that have a restored Mack B series. The bottom-line is supply and demand.

Thanks for the information. Rodney

Does anyone have a site or link to where I can find Mack Shifter knob(s)?? (Looking for a solid red and solid black) Thanks!

It's a 673 (non-turbo). Has a 10 speed. I had the single right side updraft taken off and put twin stacks (used the cab glad-hand holders as brackets). I'll have to post some updated photos. The only thing I want to do more is get the front bumper chromed. Thanks for welcome(s)!!

Want to introduce myself, my name is Rod, and I'm new to the site. I am from Conover, NC and I recently purchased my 1st vintage Mack. I’m not a trucker by trade, I’m a Logistics (Maintenance) Officer (21 years) in the Army, so I appreciate chats and forums about old trucks. I’ve found many questions I've had concerning my new truck and want to say thanks. My wife and I recently purchased a (NC titled) 1963 ... (just found out a couple days ago from the Mack museum that our truck is actually a 1960 model). The truck was 85% restored when purchased and we have been working to get her to 100%, still working on some small details. Thanks for the site and we look forward to it and enjoying our new toy!
