Pawel Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Oh yeah! This is a very good thread! Somehow I always had the feeling Macks were under-represented among the wreckers - what could be the reason for that?Thanks for sharing and havee a nice dayPaweł Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 purple truck is beyond rough and restorable. cab, fenders and frame and crossmembers are rotted back from all those years up and down the NY Thruway. only salvageable sheet metal is the hood and shutters. it has a brand new 673 in it with rotary pump tho and a 10 speed duplex. it started out as a B42, then they replaced the 40 with a overhead valve 438 and made it a B422 then finanlly changed it over to a 673 and 10 speed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhead204 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 could you imagine trying to back up a 2 place snowmobile trailer with that R? I think most would commit suicide after the first 10 feet if they still had a trailer tongue ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
