Hello,

I created my account on this site several years back, but this is my first post. This seems like a good community of truck enthusiasts, so it's nice to be here!

This is a G series Mack daycab coe with a separate sleeper and a wrecker body. It's somewhere in the vicinity of San Bernardino, CA I think. I am not sure of the exact model or year of this truck, or how complete the drivetrain is, because it is not mine. I'm just listing it to help the owner sell it. The asking price is $1400, but this may be negotiable. However, the main thing is the truck must be removed from the property it's on in about 3 weeks---otherwise it will likely have to go to the wrecking yard. I'd hate for that to happen.

Some of you may be familiar with Bernie Long (bernies-antiquecars.com) out of Bloomington, CA.  He had a large collection of unrestored cars and trucks, and he used to advertise frequently in the classifieds section of Wheels of Time.  Mr. Long passed away early this year (age 88), and in April his family auctioned off most of his stuff.  I called a few times during these past two months just to see if any of the collection didn't sell.  Sometime last week, I was put in touch with one of his daughters who kindly sent pictures of the stuff that hadn't sold yet. Thankfully, most of the collection has found new homes, but this G model and a few other vehicles are still sitting on the lots.

Sorry for giving such short notice, but I only learned very recently that this truck was still there. I wouldn't mind having it myself, but I can't really afford to take on any other projects at this time.

Please feel free to comment if you are interested.  PM me and I can give you my phone #.  I will also post a few more of Mr. Long's trucks that are still for sale.

Thanks,

Man, too bad it's on the wrong side of the continent for me! What a neat little setup!

Please........someone save that truck!

G models are something very special, and G model day cabs are extremely rare.

Sounds like a truck for MackDaddy.  He’s on the right side of the world.

Take the wrecker body off and make an air stream camper.

Good question. The seller said that tomorrow she would check if there is a title for it.
