Tootall88 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Hello! Just joined the forum. I've read a lot of topics on this forum before I bought my r model and seems to be a lot of knowledgeable and helpful members on here. I just bought a 1976 r model that I'm turning into a single axle dump. I still have a few questions about it and I know this is the place for answers and opinions!

Tootall88 Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 Thanks guys I tried posting a pic yesterday but it failed so I will see what's going on with that. I need to get more pics this weekend. Might have to get the ol lady to get the pics up she's more electronic savy than me lol. I need to get some numbers and serial numbers. It's got the 300 tip turbine. The original cab and hood has the hood scoop and the single air tube to the can. The company that owned the truck put an 80s model cab and hood with the twin air tubes to the can so I'm not sure what was swapped or changed. Maybe you guys can chime in. Runs like a top and is solid! Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50363-1976-r-model/#findComment-374184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmyb Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Mack went to a galvanised cab in the 80's. My 84 model copped one, and it's held up really well for rust. Fingers crossed you got one too.
