Hi topo, it has the 291ci. 107 hp.

Good morning forum members. I need to do a tune up on my B20 Magnadyne gas engine. What are the recommendations for parts, spark plug gaps and point gaps? Also oil and trans fluid and rear end fluid. My plan is to get it running so I can get it in and out of the shop with no problems and while at it feel confident it is ready to run. Thanks.....Frank

You guys are making me laugh!

Thanks' Bob yes, I am lucky to have a big shop. Although they never seem big enough. Thank you MACKS it was a super Birthday gift. Now the fun starts!

Hi Mark T and mowerman, Thanks for the happy birthday and best wishes! It came out of Montana and today I cleaned up the cab, much to my surprise no rust and a solid floor. Hope the rest goes as smooth. More pics as the work progresses. Happy Mack Day.....Frank

Hi Steve & mrsmackpaul, thank you for the Happy Birthday! Planning on restoring it and make it a parade truck. The helpers are willing especially when you're on the creeper!

Hi forum members. Today is my 75th. birthday and my wife bought me a new project. A B20 dump truck! It is going to be a lot of fun and agony! Can't wait to get started!

Hi Bob, I got one from a Mack fire truck at a salvage yard. It really makes a great sounding horn! My copilot (she's in the pictures with the red Mack tee shirt) says you can hear it in the next county!

Hi Bob, thank you, hope all is well with you. You have to start with a vision and yes, it has come a long way since the beginning. It does drive very nice and smooth. The lowboy trailer is a '99 Talbert, I tore off the old deck, repaired anything that needed it. Sand blasted, primed and painted it and redecked it with 2" oak, then stained the new boards. I still have work to do on the Mack. It takes time but for now I can drive it and have fun!

I took the Mack out for a Sunday drive today. It was a beautiful day in northern WI.

Hello Forum members! I have some updates on my 1973 Mack R model, restoration I would like to share with you. I am working on the trailer air lines and electric. The door, bumper & some of the pinstripes are on. More pinstriping to follow. I sent the hood grab handle out to be chromed. Hope you all have a great Memorial Day weekend! Best Regards.....Frank

Hi BOBWhite, for now I'm going to keep those Dayton type. They will get sand blasted and painted white with chrome stemco seals.

It's been a while since I posted some pics of my restoration, but I have some progress to share. I completely rewired the lights. The doors are just hanging in place for now. the windows are in with new gaskets. The wipers are on. Some of the new chrome is on. I need to buff more of the paint and put lights on the back. The lowboy trailer is also done. Happy New Year to all! .....Frank
