tkobes43 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Lets see some pics of the b model!Tom Quote "Nothing Breaks Wind Like A Bulldog" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/19654-b-model-cab-parts/#findComment-81222 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Here is the B-61LST I have for sale. No title but I drove it 10 miles home recently. It has a starter or wiring problem as it melted a battery post last time I started it. I got this truck only because it is too nice for the scrapyard. I have no time for another project and would just like to see the truck or its parts go to good use.Gregg Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/19654-b-model-cab-parts/#findComment-81395 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Pics of the floor in OK condition definitely workable. I will get more detailed pics if anyone is interested.I believe the round fuel tank to be already sold. I have a matched pair of square tanks that can go with the truck.Gregg Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/19654-b-model-cab-parts/#findComment-81396 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 I'd certainly like to have it for parts but I really don't know how I'd justify it on the home front. "Momma" is at odds with me on the current number or iron around here that doesn't seem to get worked on quickly.Seems the house that has been put off for about 15 years whist we were getting kids educated has become a priority for her........

Superdog Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Just my opinion but that truck is way too decent to be cannabalized for parts.What will happen is you might sell a couple things,then you'll have an incomplete truck that you'll end up getting tired of looking at it it will end up as scrap.I've seen this happen way too many times.Keep it whole,please,even if all you do is look at it.The price of iron has sent way too many to china already.There's way more than enough loose parts around without taking apart a decent truck like yours.

vision386 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Think I'd have to have it no matter the consequence at home before letting that happen.RobI agree,it galls me to see sellers (no one here mind you) that use the threat of "sending it to the scrapyard if i dont get 50K for it" be it Mack trucks,or other "vintage" vehicles,i just saw a nice useable Studebaker lark get crushed down here not to long ago,because noone would pay the asking price ( a ridiculous $5000.00 )............Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

gearbox Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 It happens over here as well, just recently R700 was up for grabs and the guy wanted to much but was willing to send to scrap but wouldn't sell it for scrap value to me. Don't understand, shame freight is so expensive to Aus Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/19654-b-model-cab-parts/#findComment-83171 Share on other sites More sharing options...

41chevy Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I agree leave it whole, it looks too nice to part out. FYI in N.Y. any pre title (I think 1973 and older) yo need a bill of sale and a tracing off the VIN. The DMV will than issue a 1 year non transferable registration. After the year if nothing bad shows up in the system they'll issue a standard tranferable registation. I did this with my B and my AC even though they were non runners just to get it over with.

diamondtrubber Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Not sure if the OP is going to reply or not, but I couldn't help noticing he was asking for floor mats. So where would one find repro floor mats for such a truck?

Underdog Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 was thinkin that myself,,but has no papers,that scares people,its not a big deal,,generally after 3 years,,its out of the system,and they give you a fresh title.bobThere are ways I can get a title for this truck. If a buyer wants the complete truck and a title, I will get that done.I apologize for not responding sooner, however my computer time is limited and I am seeing some older posts for the first time. I also have a plate full of other projects and this B has been on the back burner.Gregg Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/19654-b-model-cab-parts/#findComment-83251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
