Popular Post AMGeneral Posted September 4, 2024 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2024 (edited) Hi folks, I haven’t been around in a while, it’s been busy here to say the least. I have 2 new additions recently, As the title states, I purchased a 78 R686 Mack tractor with a 285 tip turbine and a 6 speed , nice truck with low miles and next to no rust. My wife and I also welcomed our first child 4 months ago, a healthy little boy !
