  1. I'll try to get some. It's actually the guy across the street from my shop, so I don't know when I can get down the to take some pictures. It's Richard Morchesky (I really don't know how to spell it) of Export Fuel Service, if anybody knows him. He has a bunch of cool stuff. Ben
  2. ...is what I get to go to tomarrow. It's a whole week of nothing but TESTING. I am taking the test at the Westmoreland Comunity Collage. I don't hate it, but it's not that fun either. Every year since 3rd grade, I've gotten all advanced scores on them, so it shouldn't be too bad. Wish me luck, Ben
  3. Cool! I like it because it's kinda long. Would be a good place to put an 8V92 Detroit. Ben
  4. Nice project! My neighbor just bought a B73ST project that's in about the same condition as your B75 was. It's supposed to run and drive. Good luck and I hope to see more pictures. Ben
  5. That's Sweet. I think it's probably well worth the money. Ben
  6. It might be. But at least I put an effort forth. Ben
  7. I've had mine for about 2 years now and I'll be getting them off soon. I'll be sure to wear my retainer. Ben
  8. Yep. You take something that's already the best in it's class and put a Two-Stroke Detroit in it, you get pure AWESOME. Ben
  9. That's what a lot of kids say. You should ask somebody about your local 4-H clubs. There's a lot of really awesome things other than just animals. There's rocketry, woodworking, Travelall, and other cool stuff you would like. The next time you see somebody that's in 4-H, you should ask them about it. Cousin Ben
  10. Not a whole lot, he must be busy. I've been busy myself. Ben
  11. Cool! I never really got into sports. All my life I've been doing Boy Scouts, 4-H and, of course, working on various vehicles. Ben
  12. Cool! That's a pretty sweet conversion they did. I would have one just like it but with a Detroit in it. Ben
  13. Yea, I kind of like how you're totally obsessed. It's cool. You never bother me, Cousin Vinny, just with your grammer skills. Cousin Ben
  14. I love B Models, they're my favorite. We have a B60 we're restoring. A B61 means (like f250, f350, C2500, C3500, etc.) the load capacity and size. Even numbered B Models (B42, B60, B80 etc.) were gas powered. Odd numbered ones (B45, B61, B75 etc.) were Diesel powered. A B60 is exactly the as a B61 exept it was originally gasoline powered. There could also be a letter(s) like T or S. "T" means "tractor" "S" means "tandem" "ST" means "tandem tractor" also "X" means severe-duty chassis. There's also more than that. The first thing you should do when you get the truck, is get the chassis number (B61 4603 or something like that) from behind the passenger side front spring shackle, and send it to the the Mack Museum. They'll send you a factory build sheet, an owner's manual, and all kinds of cool stuff. They can tell you where it was built, when, what configuration it was, and things like that. Good Luck, Ben
  15. Yea, It's pretty neat. I'd say $1500 for it, $2000 at the most. Be a pretty good restoration project. It's more than likely gas powered though, I would have to put a Detroit in it. Ben
  16. My main concern is hauling stuff. We plan to get a trailer and use the B60 to retrieve other projects we get in the future. If it has an antique plate on it, can we still haul other antique trucks with it. That Fact Sheet for PA says "trucks May Not haul cargo" but I thought that meant they couldn't haul commercial cargo and we could still haul our personal stuff. Am I wrong? Ben
