Happy new year everybody!

Welcome! I looked for years to find one. My wife was talking to a friend of mine who located my truck She made the deal on mine . I looked it over she paid the woman And I drove it home Hopefully she shakes her head and you buy the truck Like superdog says buy it before he changes his mind Steve

Thanks for posting ! Nice watching the dogs play

Welcome! You will have a blast with the old b Great story . Glad you got it Neat how some things work out!

Congratulations Mike ! Hopefully Noah will be A mack fanatic like gramp

Keep up the good work. I Enjoy looking for new posts To this thread. Keep the pics coming Nice old B

Nice! Have fun with it

I would be surprised if they would sell it whole. Scrapers / parts yards say they are worth more In pieces than whole . That sucks for us hobby truck guys I tried a few months back on an R model and the guy wouldn't sell it whole It had water in oil offered him 7000 he said he got over 10000 in pieces. Good luck though I hope you get it before it is all apart. Steve

Few weeks ago Friend of mine called me . He said the R model Is steaming from under hood He is almost 80 so he asked if I Would look at it so I went over Someone cut the radiator off with sawzall just core Tanks still there anyone else see that done before? What a mess they also got two chevy pickups just pryed out radiator with bar Cut hoses with knife . We put up some game cameras and one sends info to cell phone turned out to be his neighbors kids Cops caught them on a return trip for more stuff after camera told him they were in his yard He just called cops they blocked in their pickup and walked in with owner and arrested them

Yeah Our old d-4 cat Has cat battery's in it they were 10 years old last month Still going probably will go bad now that I mentioned it . Thank you guys for all the comments just wanted to see what everybody else is Using Steve

Ok thanks For the info J Hancock good to know

No never tried deka Only Napa and those lasted About a year I don't know who makes Napa batterys I know few places sell interstate and deka in town I live in

Hi fellas What are you buying for battery's? Brand name? Looking for good ones Bought some from Napa a while back Didn't have good luck I can find deka , interstate, Napa or exide at tractor supply which I have been told to stay Away from. Steve

Welcome ! And have fun with your truck search. Lots of knowledgeable folks here. I learn something new everyday mack related Steve

Nj If they take it outside We might see the rust And problems it doesn't have!

I wondered how long it would be before They realized they screwed up but I agree They need a true small pickup. And I wouldn't buy one if unibody construction I never buy new because of price. Can't afford it And up here in the rust belt they wouldn't last long enough. Body on frame, patch rusty body up or frame keep them going Everyone up here very fond of jeep Cherokees But They are gone rocker rust over into floor into unibody supports for springs ready for the crusher. I work on vehicles and equipment for neighborhood people. most people I help can't afford anything else To drive . so we do what we can . And it sucks when I say sorry it's to far gone And they are like what am I going to do now? They just don't have the money . I'm not much better off. I got a 05 Jeep Wrangler that gets oil under coated every fall And my 97 f-350 also gets oiled but that is it . They need to get there head out of there ass make them same size as 1984 up to 90s And need to be affordable for McDonald's ,Burger King and people on social security to be able to buy Because no jobs here To support that 25-30000 for vehicle. If they could do 14,000-20,000 It would sell but but the guys in factory got to get 30.00 per hr and benefits retirement so I don't see it changing Steve

I don't know if anyone else has looked at it in person. It has been on Craig's list off and on for 6 months or more. Looks pretty good . Good luck if you decide to go look at it. It needs a nice shop to sleep inside Looks like water getting in in places doors and passenger floor Steve

Looks pretty good ! Have fun with it . Looking forward to more pics .

Thank's for posting this I like to see the chain drives !

Any idea on year of production? I have seen the hoods in scrap yards But never the whole truck different looking . Is it for sale ?

No specs ? Don't care what rears,engine,transmission ? Probably doesn't matter

Here we go again! New business at the port.

Calling for snow/rain tomorrow night here ! To early for that

Welcome Like the truck and trailer ! Steve

Looks good! Nice work
