Popular Post bullhusk Posted January 3, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2016 I was up at the old 309 Mack dealer in Pa last month to get a Glider kit inspection (Pa wants a cert. before a Pa reg. is issued) Well heres one for you guys that I think is a great idea! They take your old Mack (mostly all pre EGR) and rebuild the truck right down to re-railing the frame! I saw some of the resto work and I would put it right up there with some of top Mack builders I've seen and not for crazy money! I told them about my RL700L with the V-12 and the guys eyes almost fell outta his head! I have finished all of the motor and drivetrain work but I think I might just get a price from them to do the cab (in & out elect. and so on) and have finish the truck! I'll keep you posted. I think it's called Trans Edge Volvo Mack, but we all still know it as Rt 309 or Alllentown MackBULLHUSK PS They told me that this was there answer to a Mack Glider 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43365-ground-up-resto-on-your-old-or-not-so-old-mack/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underdog Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 They are a good bunch at Allentown Mack (Trans Edge). Been doing business there for years. Bought a Brand new CX there in 2000, and they helped me keep it going for 12 years until I sold it. They still have a few techs good with V8s, and they helped me with the E6 thermodyne Frankenstein I put together for my F-model. Just a single owner-operator and they treat me like I own 100 trucks.

57 bcr Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Sounds like a good deal of pride still remains at the old Allentown Mack (now Trans Edge). You guys are lucky to have a dealership that values you,like most used to. God bless 'em. Al Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!
