Timmyb Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 This is a pretty cool old truck. Is a 76 R700. The old bloke who has it put a brand new cab on it in the 90’s and the superliner bonnet at the same time. Paint seems poor but chassis and cab are completely rust free. Has a 320 cool power, 12 speed and 44’s with eagle claw. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/67736-looked-at-this-old-mack-today/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Neat truck. Cool thing in Australia you indeed can convert R700 into a Superliner since both have similar frame rails. 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/67736-looked-at-this-old-mack-today/#findComment-478476 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old bloke said he put a brand new cab on it in the 90’s, I was curious so I asked him how much it was. He said about $3500 for a bare cab back then. How times have changed. My drives door cost me $2200. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/67736-looked-at-this-old-mack-today/#findComment-478498 Share on other sites More sharing options...
