What it would be to go back in time as the pictures remind us how simple and good life was. It would be neat to slow down and enjoy life that way again. Keep the pictures coming.

If you like the "B" model Macks. Check out the First Gear Mack Hauling Series. These have Mack on the doors instead of companies names. I went after these as my main collection of First Gear. They Also did the AB, L & R model along with the Brockway. This was easier to have a complete collection and keep it smaller since these trucks are large and take so much space, but they are my favorite. Check out local toy shows in your area. The toy show in York Pa. every srping and fall for example. Fall is the best. Good Luck & Happy Collecting

Try one thing. If possible bypass the drier to see if you still have a air loss.

If you have not found a grille yet check out the one I listed here. Its a NOS grille. I hope I am not upside down on the price. I am just trying to get my money back on this grille I bought through Mack that was wrong for the truck I ordered it for. If interested call me @ 540-325-9092 between 8am - 8pm EST.

I am sure that everyone agrees that the grille is priced to high. Here is the issue and I am sure you cannot blame me. I work in a parts store and have a customer needing a grille. I called a Mack dealer on the west coast with the vin. number for the truck needing the grille. They quoted me a price of $918.00 plus freight. I contacted the Mack dealer nearest to me, gave them the part number provided to me and they ordered the grille for me. As it turned out it was wrong. The dealer contacted DEX and there is a no return policy for obsolete parts. I didn't feel I could force this on the customer. He did not make the mistake.I couldn't return it to the dealer I had order it for it was my mistake with the part number given to them by me. I could not return to the dealer giving me the incorrect part number since I did not order from them. My boss made me buy the grille. At $600.00 I am already losing money and that loss continues to grow every time I list it for sale some where. I would like to get most of what I have invested in this due to the error of someone else giving me a incorrect part number. Believe me as a parts man I will not make this mistake again. I don't like the idea of working more than a week to buy parts I don't need.
I am not out to gouge anyone on this. I just trying to get most of my money back. This is just a costly error. I may have to sell it for the prices recommended someday.

My vote is for the 70-80's. I have to stay with my passion for the R-Model since I started out in a 1968 R-model back in the day. I currantly have a 1971 needing a lot of TLC.
