  1. Yep,all but the doors.Never could figure why Mack couldn't do that with the F models.I've scrapped 3 4070B's and if I remember right,there about 800 to 900 lbs. of clean aluminum in the cab.
  2. Hit a damn deer Thursday,took out the grille and broke my hood at the hinges.Ran it that way Friday,but couldn't tip the hood,and it looked like shit without a grille,so today we pulled the hood of my '88 with the blown engine and put on till I can get the other hood fixed.Mikey,his friend Jared,my helper Scott,my daughter Lilly and myself got it changed out and all the lights working in a little over an hour.Got new grille parts ordered and Mikey's going to take the other hood to the body shop first thing before he leaves for the week.Sure is good to have extra parts lying around when you need it.
  3. Makes me sick,too.Looks like the auction was here in the midwest,somewhere.That kinda price,it coulda very well went to scrap.
  4. I finally sent them a letter last week after years of wanting to and putting it off.I picked 4 trucks at random to do research on.This week I got a nice "Thank You" letter from them and was told I'd have my info in 4 to 5 weeks.
  5. I posted pics of this MH awhile back,looks like I'm getting it now.It's doing the same thing in spots.The guy that I'm getting it from sanded a small spot with his DA and it smoothed up nice,but I didn't know if that was the right way to prep it before painting.
  6. Leon, I've seen floors alot worse than that saved,look at the fine work Larry did,
  7. Good save.Definately Cruiseliner/Superliner fuel tanks,battery boxes and air tanks,later model rear ends and suspension too.
  8. looks more '66 to 69 to me,bumper,grille,MACK above the windshield,ventilated radiator acess door.
  9. Does anyone kow if you can still get rebuild kits for the Bulldog mirrors?You used to be able to get new plastic ends,glass and threaded rod in a kit.I've got half a dozen or more that I'd like to fix rather than replace.
  10. Here's a pic of that B61 from the Ebay listing.Pretty nice old B.
  11. This one is a 759,Vinny.It has the Mack cab(or Sheller Globe cab for the Brockway guys) .The cab sits about as high as a cabover.I need a step ladder to check the oil. Going to pull the bumper tomorrow if I get time,got a little heftier one I'm going to put on it,don't know if I'll like the looks of it yet,but the one on it now has to go,it just don't look right.Also gotta get the green paint of the rest of the emblems.
  12. Actually got to spend a few hours working on one of my old trucks for a change.I know it's not a Mack,but at least they are related.Former owner must have really liked green,I think this looks a little better.
  13. As I recall,there were several pics of the Mack in the original paper,it was a sleeper cab and the sleeper was cut off and back wall filled in.
  14. That's an old article,I remember reading it in high school,a buddy's Dad used to get FarmShow and he brought it to show me.On a related note,there is a 4x4 farm tractor made out of a G model here not too far from me.There was an article in Bulldog about it back in the mid-70's.I was able to get the G cab from them a few years back,they only used the frame and running gear.I don't know how far back these posts go,but I'm sure Al Rhino posted the article in here when I posted the pics of the cab.
  15. Have you checked with a Mack dealer?Wasn't that long ago I bought one for my CH.
  16. That's the 2nd edition on Montville's book,the first printing had a stars & stripes dust jacket.Either or both is a must have in my opinion.
  17. Why doesn't Mack offer a powered glider with a re-man 98-02 Etech engine?I think they are missing the boat,big time.
  18. Glad you got it,looks like a 237 or 673C.Glad nobody got there before you,after what happened to me recently,I'm kinda leary about posting before it's sitting in my driveway. I used to have an extra front Mack emblem for a C,same one used on the G model also.
  19. Anybody else notice the Mack horns and Mirrors?
