Packer Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Found this B-73 a couple of weeks ago.Just had a chance to look at it and get a picture or two.I think it's going to follow me home!!!!!!!!!!!!Long wheel base with light camel-back set-up, a 280 Cummins, a Quadraplex, and an "L" cab I've got a sleeper that will fit on it. (Needs some work)To modify Tom's Mack,It will be a:"Single Stack Mack with a Shack on the Back"!Some like two stacks but one is all I need.Eat your heart out!!Packer Quote Keep a clutchin' Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/10786-b-73-with-l-cab/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packer Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 Terry,Yep, it's in Wyoming!!!!Our rain fall is about 7-9 in. per year and the state does not use salt on the roads.So-o-o-o the body is near perfict!!!!"Course the truck has been parked inside for the last several years and that is a great help.We're still dickering on the price and such, but I think it's gona be mine.New seat covers and headliner ready to go in.Tires are re-caps and about 50%, but still have a lot of miles.The pictures are all I have for now.The truck is in the corner of the shop and there is a Diamond-T parked very close to the "B",so thats all I can get for now.I get her out in the sun, I shoot some more.Packer Quote Keep a clutchin' Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/10786-b-73-with-l-cab/#findComment-40964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
