Boczech Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Hello Everybody,I am looking for an old Mack Dump Truck (maybe the 70s or 80;s not sure) truck and wanted to know what year truck would you get and why ? I am looking to possibly restore and use it on my small farm that I have. Any input would be greatly appreciated.ThxBo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 there are tons of old Mack dump trucks out there,but you are competing with the exporters in that year range. You wanting a single axle or tandem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mack mhe9 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 My advise, take 2 pills and rub some cream on it and burn all the photos.Oh late 80s R model. You can get parts for it. Cabs are galvinized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
