R Model Hood Scoops?

Under hood air diverted air cleaner -
Keep posting. It's always interesting to see the photos and history behind them.

Was the b model full flow filter mounted to the cowl panel ( in front of side vent) a factory option or just for v8 powered trucks? If it was a factory option I might try to find the cowl bracket and mount the full flow outside when I swap engines.

Looks nice. What are the specs. I didn't know you could still get the Mack ( triangle cut out) wheels. I always liked them

I have one new in the box. I have find it

the tube 22" aluminum wheels are going to be for sale but the budd hubs are staying put. I need some variety. Out of 20 Macks I will have two on Budds. I think thats enough.

Just looked at the before pics. Did he have new sides put in the body or did they put dummy panels in? It also looked like he switched the rears from 24" to 24.5? -

Nice truck. B-D heavy weight body and 58's on spokes. Who lettered it? -
Here is a pic. I guess a sideways pic is better than no pic at all.

Well Joe the truck is a low mileage western fs795lt day cab. 865 V8 dynatard with a five speed. Pretty neat little truck. My brother was out there visiting his in laws over Thanksgiving and found it, drove it and bought it. The rest is history. I figured it wouldn't take up much space and would look good in the line up.

Truck has been shipped. Thanks

All Mack Fleets Past

Why did Mack choose to use straight frame rails on the CH when they had used "splayed" frame rails on every other past model except the Western trucks. Didnt they used to advertise the strength and engine room of the splayed rails in maketing at one point?

Thats amazing that the stamp survives
-
Just think about how much more fuel tax revenue they get from trucks that get far less fuel mileage.

Dual air breathers on R model
maxidyne237 replied to Stretched out's topic in Exterior, Cab, Accessories and Detailing
Sharp RS. RB tractor and a 966C or 980 in the background? -
You bring up excellent points that are all true. Why Mack haddent made an indestructable transmission by the time the 300 series came out is beyond me. They should have got it right with the 200 series. I personally would take a Mack trans over a Fuller . When putting a "driver" behind the wheel with a range shifted trans the Fuller wins.
