umodelnut Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Well, had to pick up Papa's backhoe from the shop. So we had our friend haul it for us. He brought his old R model with the Landoll trailer. I think the R is a 78 or 9 with a 300 and a 5 speed. I got to ride home in it, it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everytime we'd pull from a light I'd look in the mirror and watch that straight pipe pour the coal!!! It was great. More pictures to come. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30922-today-was-a-good-day-r-model-involved/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

umodelnut Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 You sure it didn't have a 300 Vinny?Might of Mike. Thought it was a 237 though. Not for sure. Is it because of the dual hoses on the air cleaner?

umodelnut Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 It might of. Actually I think it did because I walked by the air cleaner and glanced at the tag and it said something about inter cooler.

Solution Popular Post TozziWelding Posted April 21, 2013 Solution Popular Post Share Posted April 21, 2013 Nice old working truck, it already out lasted a new rig. An old Mack will wear out 5 drivers before the truck gets tired. 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30922-today-was-a-good-day-r-model-involved/#findComment-179627 Share on other sites More sharing options...
