  1. I just got a daycab brochure! Check this bad boy out...
  2. We do stock a universal sender that seems to work well for antique applications. It is not listed on our website yet. It sells for $27.87 ea USD. You can give me a call to place an order.
  3. We can still get cab panels for the R Mods. The only big difference was the roof and rear cab panel. the late models had an extended rear panel for a little extra room in the cab. I only have OEM panels, though...no aftermarket stuff.
  4. Stay tuned...I will post a price as soon as my Aus contact gets the shipping quote. I hope it is resonable, we will get 3-5 in one box to cut down on the freight charge.
  5. Looks like you were in Vegas, Rick! My guys just got back, too...here are some pics. Sorry they are kinda dark, but they said the lighting was poor in the convention hall.
  6. Nice video... Welcome to BMT! Glad to have you aboard!
  7. Jamie and Phil Samuell stopped by to show off their hobbies on their way through, Friday! Here are the traditional Photos from infront of our building! Thanks for stopping by, guys! Enjoy... You can see more of this fine machine under Sept. Truck of the Month
  8. There used to be a company in Seatle that made conversion kits, but the phone number is no good. I will do some checking...
  9. Are you gonna tear the GMC apart to build the CL?
  10. Yes, a car battery should be able to get you home, but I recomend replacing both batteries when you can! If the "good" battery is really only up to half potential, it will suck a new battery dead.
  11. There is a place in Latrobe that stores motorhomes, etc...but that is about 45 miles from you...I don't know of anywhere else.
  12. Dave McIlrath's B81
  13. Rear drum from a 1970 Mack M45 Dump Truck!
  14. Wow! That is awesome! Post more pics of the trucks you have done! I wish I had patience to stuff like that!
  15. Yes, there ae limits on the number of attachments you can add. If you reach your limits, you will need to go to your control panel and manage your attachments. I have also added new user groups to give members more global space based on post counts...see this link for more info: http://bigmacktrucks.invisionzone.com/inde...&st=0#entry1901 Don't forget about your Gallery! You can add photos there also! You can also use free photo hosting sites to attach pics or albums with out using any global space. If you have any questions, call me at 1-888-304-MACK
  16. I have set up new user groups for members based on total number of posts. All changes are automatic and you don't have to do anything except post! Here is how it will work: 0-50 posts = Member (5mb Global Space) 50-100 posts= Special Member (6mb Global Space) 100-250 posts = Select Member (7mb Global Space) 250-500 posts = Premium Member (8mb Global Space) 500-Up posts = VIP Member (10mb Global Space) As you can see, the Global Space goes up for each member level. This is what lets you post more photos as attachments in your posts. In addition, Premium & VIP Members can delete their own posts, topics and edit titles! If you have already reached a new group level, the change will take place on your next post! Have fun and keep those topics coming!
  17. Welcome to BMT! You came to the right place! We all love Macks (and all antique trucks for that matter!) Look forward to hearing from ya! Enjoy the forums...
  18. Welcome to BMT! Glad you found us! We would love to see photos of your truck when you get a chance!
  19. Nice lookin machine there! Looks almost like the Rubber Duck! As far as the engine, I would check all the exhaust gaskets and lock rings while it is out. Lot easier to work on exhaust when it is out of the truck.
  20. Hi Bill! Welcome aboard! Glad you found us...There are lots of friendly, helpful folks here, so jump right in and enjoy! We sure would like to see some photos of your new truck, too.
  21. Nice collection of photos! Gotta love fire trucks! Did you go to the fireman's parade a couple weeks ago in Greensburg? I didn't make it, but I heard there were tons of cool trucks there.
  22. Welcome to BMT! Glad you joined up and we look forward to hearing from ya and seeing some pics of your trucks!
  23. Hello and welcome to BMT! Glad you joined up! Here is some info I grabbed from www.oldmacksRus.com Chassis Versions What do all the letters mean? These are the basic letters used B - school bus chassis C - flat face cowl for the addition of a delivery body E - built for export F - fire truck chassis L - light weight or weight reduced by using aluminum components P - platform chassis (single axle straight truck) R - right hand drive. This designation was started in 1964 but right hand drive available prior as option. S - six wheel chassis (tandem axle) T - tractor chassis X - severe or extreme service chassis Combine any of the basic letters to get a different chassis PC - flat face cowl platform chassis LST - light weight six wheel tractor chassis SX - six wheel extreme service chassis STE - six wheel tractor chassis for export RX - right hand drive extreme service chassis These are some odd versions BD - school bus - no idea what the D means. Little more than 100 built 1955-1956 EWX - don’t have a clue on the letters but the picture shows a mean looking B83 built in 1965 with 3 drive axles SX-C - six wheel extreme service chassis, may have been built in Canada SX-M - six wheel extreme service chassis, no idea what M stands for T-HS - tractor, don’t know about HS T-M - tractor, don’t know about M TPB - tractor piggy back Now the fire truck combinations! The good guys at the Mack Museum and Harvey Eckart had to do some “head scratchin” on these CF - fire truck with Chrysler Corp. drive train FA - aerial ladder fire truck FC - fire truck chassis without fire body. This designation started in 1965 FCD - fire truck chassis with diesel engine without fire body FD - fire truck with diesel engine. This designation started in 1964 FMD - don’t have a clue. Only built in 1963 FSW - six wheel (tandem axle) fire truck. This designation started in 1958 for fire trucks but had been used in trucks prior to the B model series. FT - fire truck tractor. This designation started in 1965 but fire truck tractors were also built before this date. Hope this helps!
