  1. 82 mph?? The pavement looks dry so on my mind the weather was good. Have no want to drive the truck out, would need to power wash it completely after getting several kilometers.
  2. Also some good looking R's Interesting it opens half in Russian on my screen.
  3. Uhhh!! I love mountains! Was born and live in a flat area.
  4. Steve, I just must have missed the topic. Wondered long ago of how do you do about Superliner. Glad to see your paint job. I also like blue better but shure that green will be nice with gold strips you plan to apply on. The frame looks fresh to me, hope you don't need heavy metal work. Vlad
  5. What does the shift sticker on the dash tell?
  6. Why do they describe it as parts truck? Engine does run, looks solid at all
  7. ...I want restless Gipsy, All I need... Headlights in the rain!
  8. Depending on how interesting pictures are Welcome aboard!
  9. Looks powerful and impressive. Definitely Six Wheels. Thanks.
  10. Glad to hear good news, fighting snow is a common thing now for many of BMT members as I learned last weeks.
  11. On a side note about the door handles - what the handle correctly used when you want to pull back the door from inside a cab to close? I have some aftermarket crap on mine but see on the pics above 2 cranks only.
  12. Welcome!
  13. She looked cold but well alive. As for the exchange units I'm for #1.
  14. Look here: http://www.huskidriv..._ard_manual.pdf
  15. The power source is a misterious unit. It called Mack ED Lanova. It's probably the first Mack own produced diesel. Has 519 ci and 131 hp. Pre-chambers and pre-heaters in head's air inlets. The mistery is what other Mack trucks it was used in. As I noted to myself it was somewhere in early (30's) B models but haven't heared about any under L's hoods.
  16. Tom, haven't read the last issue of "The pictures" yet so don't know where had you been last couple of days. Thank you.
  17. Thank you Jeff. I'm interesting in Australian Macks. One more other world to me.
  18. Interesting stuff. White B fire engine looks extremely attractive! Thanks.
  19. Glad you're balancing well. Keep the track and update to us.
  20. Happy B day!
  21. Sheet metal looks good indeed. As a bonus the cab and fenders can run to your house themselves.
  22. The riveter is cose to be custom made, they fabricate them on special order. Originally it's application is fixing of special suspension part of rail road wagons. The company's specialisation is hudraulic equipement - big jacks, presses and so on including rail road services. As for the cost the press was a bit more than you payed for the rear bogie
  23. It's of course. Model NR, produced during WW2 from 1940 until 1945. Most were supplied under Lend Lease to Great Britain, Middle East, Australia and other allied countries. Some also came to Russia, probably 700 units. The one I'm working on is from that bunch. Only one survived as I know. NR model was basicaly the same as L, something like LGSW or LJSW. I'm trying to relate them by some units and weight ratings but it's a reason for one more thread. As you know commercial truck's production was interrupted on Mack from 1942-1944. So interruption of current L series was filled of similar kind NR and NM militaries. I also love the truck
  24. Do they have frame's front end similar to R model? Shure the cab mountings and hood attachments must be different. And how about the lenght of the frame along the longer hood?
