james j neiweem Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Saw a nice looking Mack Western F model on Truck trader. Silver or grey with long wheelbase. Only draw back Detroit 8-71. Price is right though2500 dollars. Sell the 8-71 and repower with Mack power Interior looks premium. Then again keep the 8-71 if you like the sound. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24509-mack-f-model/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 It certainly looks like it's worth the $2600, from the pictures at least. The aftermarket upholstery in the sleeper looks good, I'd like to see what they did with the rest of the interior.

motortrans Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 That truck is beautiful!!!!! I considered calling on it. Then reality set in. That $2600 toy could turn into a $10,000 nightmare real quick driving back to the eastcoast. You would be "different" rolling that around.

My brother and i are leaving in the morning to drive out there to look at it, kinda like a mini vacation. good time to go see our sister in Prosper,TX. it does look good for the money.

BC Mack Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 b61mackmake sure you report in after you see it.. I too was tempted, requested photos etc... then reality set in as it was too far to trek...hope you strike a deal, it needs a bit of fixing from what I could see from the photos but not bad given the lean supply of tidy F models. Don't forget the earplugs for the drive home!!..I will keep my eyes open for a Cruiseliner or Ultraliner nearer to me...BC Mack Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24509-mack-f-model/#findComment-115702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
