Really Strong CH
james j neiweem replied to Bullheaded's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Its funny- after market mechinics can figure out how to put a big bore engine in a CH but Volvo/Mack can't ( more likely won't). Loosing out on heavy haul, lowboy and trailer dump markets. -
Mack needs an American company to step up and take this great name away from Volvo. Cat Deere (must be loaded with cash as stock price is over 400 dollars) Oskosh etc.
-
Lets see. Uglier than an Anthem. Anthems can look sharp if done up right. Mack needs a competetive big bore Pinnacle.
-
New Volvo cab with Mack pinnacle, Granite and Anthem hoods?
-
Hope your brother is in Mack heaven
-
I thought the later R models ran pretty smooth.

Coca Cola LJ Mack colors
james j neiweem replied to 1961H67's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Still trying to figure out what Coca Cola LJ Mack colors has to do with this popular thread. This thread has gone far afield. But thats ok -
Yes VCO was the inspiration for Emeryville
-
While watching Jacks Chrome shop on You Tube, I learned that Diamond-T was the designer of the IH Emmeryville COE. I guess Mack being owned by Chrysler wouldn't have turned out so well either. John Deere Oskosh or Cat might have been a good fit. Cat owns a giant diesel manufacturer from Germany called MAK
-
I guess the origin of the 921 and 931 were Diamond T designs. Who designed the Diamond Reo cab over(Royal I believe) when White was at the helm?
-
Is this a Diamond-T design and build in house
-
Seems like V**&&%/Mack should have solved the injector cup Issues by now. Is it so?
-
Yeah but look at the results, another American Manufacturer-Poof!
-
To bad Deere doesn't own DDC. Penske sold them down the river to Diamler
-
Looks like Diamond-T and Sterling may have used the same cab in this era

Nice job! -
While looking at the ATHS website under the Mack pictures section I saw something odd. It was a U model mack for yellow transportation. Must have been one of a kind.🙂
-
I see the term high hood R models from time to time. Are these west coast models, heavy front spring models or perhaps old style hood RD's (such as 1989-1990)🙂
-
Mechaholic: If I remember right all of the Tilcon DMM's were tri axle. They had these after the DM 800's. See ex Tilcon Macks from time to time
-
Does Volvo have the rights to Brockway trucks? 🙂I wonder if they would sell?
-
I was trying to find out where the Mack cab overs were fabricated. In house, Orville Sheller Globe etc.
-
Were there ever any Mack big 6's (885's) put in production.
-
Two questions for the experts. The 711 didn't come from the factory turbocharged but some were done at the dealerships. What was the power rating of these turboed 711's?. Also where were the later year Mack cabovers fabricated. such as the H model, G model, F model, Cruiseliner and MH. Choices I guess would be Orville, In House or Mayflower.🙂
-
I can't understand why they aren't beating your doors down to grab this deal. Doesn't seem like much rust from the picture and usually ex fire trucks were well maintained.

2013 CHU MP8 to MP10 swap
james j neiweem replied to Walkyrie_Engineering's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
If you can figure out how to make that swap then let Volvo know for they don't seem to be able to figure it out. Or IMHO they don't want to.
