wyodog Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Hey guys --I put together a site to document the process on my B-Model project. And really wanted to share it with you all and get some feedback. www.oldmacktruck.comI will be putting more pictures up soon. This weekend we are getting the cab into primer, and I have more body work pictures as well. But will get them up there after this weekend. Please let me know what you think about the site!--Josh Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12644-my-restore-oject/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve s. Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Your site looks very good, Josh. We all like pictures, so keep them coming. Does the B 53 have integral power steering ? Most B 53's that I've seen do, which is a real nice thing to have. Keep up the good work.

wyodog Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 cfesting - The yellow truck in the background is a 60's pete. For the most part it's complete, but very rough. The guy I bought my Mack from is also looking to sell the pete as well. Let me know if you would like me to get some more info on it for you.phantom309 - Thanks! We are getting the cab in primer today, and have lot's more cab body work pics coming soon.HK Trucking - I know... I didn't notice it at first. I am still confused as to how I goofed it up as badly as I did. I will tell you that I work on trucks better then I can spell!!! :-)Steve - I don't know. I am going to check that out when I go back out to the yard today. Thanks for the tip!Thanks for the input!
