That is up my alley. I dig it but needs more work than I am willing to do.

Paul, any chance you can get the info on the scrap yard? Maybe you can get it from them? Everytime I see this topic I still think Mormans. Lol.

7 degrees this morning with a -15 wind chill. I guess it's time to do the driveway then make my way to my dealership and shovel out the inventory. Good thing I made a pass last night with the snowblower. We got at least 10".

Mine only leaks when it's idling at start up. Once it's run, no more leaks. Got to say, it sounds bad ass when you tach it up.

I thought that was at Gerharts. I like the short wheelbase.

That's a nice daily commuter.

I need to do this on the General.

****UPDATE!**** Big news today. I picked up the General from Dynamic Diesel tonight and drove it back to my shop. She is 95% road ready. I just have to replace the steer axle tires. They have some dry rot setting in. I'd rather play it safe. Good for around town but not long distance. So it runs damn good. I got up to 9th gear but never got to switch into overdrive gears. Wasn't quite sure what to do when slowing down and the right way to downshift back out of OD into direct then low. I was told not to go into low unless I am under 5mph or stopped. The max speed on the roads I was on was 45mph so it wasnt nessecary. Actually did well with the shifting. First mile was a disaster but then i started to understand the right rpm, and get my timing on the double clutch better. Some grinding but was able to go from low to direct without issues. I just have to get out and do some more practicing. I didn't bring my GoPro so a new video will be coming soon, just not this week.

I should be out there with the wife. Hopefully with the General.

Nice looking R. For that kind of money, I would expect more quality detailed pictures, an extensive description and full information on its features, built, maintenance etc.

Wow, I'd be interested in that if I had a way to get it home to Jersey. Looks to be a decent truck

Actually Jim Cantore last night said its actually not an Arctic Vortex. People are using the term improperly. As for shipping wars, I like the show. I know it's bullshit so take it for what it is. Just realize its just stupid entertainment and a huge advertisement for Uship. I like to watch Highway Thru Hell. Probably the only true towing show on TV. That lizard lick and south beach are more set up and fake than shipping goons.

Crap dang that's a pretty rig

Nice dump, how much was it?

This is the guy who is doing work on my General. He was just telling me how he just spent $1,000's up dating his diagnostic software for the late model rigs. Tell him JT sent ya.

I am on my phone looking at this. Am i correct? Only one picture from the front? That's it?

Try Dynamic Diesel in Farmingdale NJ. Paul is the owner. 732-255-0600.

I deal in classic cars for a living. I see this all the time. People ask "what is it worth" and get prices all over the place. When it all comes down to it what would someone REALISTICALLY buy the truck for? Anyone can tell you $35,000-50,000 for the truck but would they ACTUALLY pay that if they were really buying it? No. Plain and simple, If they aren't willing to cut a check on the spot for the amount they are quoting you, that's not the price it will sell for. An appraised value is not a market value. It's an insurance replacement number considering the time money and effort it took to restore the truck. Actual market value is what someone will pay for it. Your truck looks to be well done with good service and restoration history. That is worth a little more than a truck that was bought at auction without knowing much about. When I had seen the pictures the price that came to mind was $26,500. An odd number I know but that was my gut feeling. Asking price of $29,900 gives some room for negotiations. Now my personal opinion is different than my professional. KEEP THE TRUCK! I think your Mack will bring you more business in return as a form of advertisement then the cash you will get in hand from the sale. I found my diesel mechanic simply by having a business card his father handed me two years ago with a picture of a B61 on it. I have since recommended him to several other guys and he has gained business from word of mouth. When people see your truck at a show with a sign in front that says "restored by..." They will take a business card and flyer. Think of all the business Pfahls gets from showing his trucks? Plus the truck has now become a business write off and all the shows and events you attend with it now become business expenses. Fuel, hotel rooms, meals, tolls, etc are now expenses. Ultimately you will know which decision is right for you.

Wicked Pissa

Where are you located? Got 6-8 inches here. Wind was blowing everything around so couldn't get a flat measurement. 16 degrees this morning wind chill of 2 they said. 14 degrees right now with a low of -3 tonight. My wife took one of the outdoor cats in last night. The other one wandered off yesterday morning and haven't seen him since. He's got thick fur and isn't his first cold night outside but still worry about them with -3 temps. Hopefully he will find his way back to the heated houses we got outside.

Great looking Rig. I dig R's with sleepers.

I love those trucks and never get tired of looking at them. B models and Wreckers, it doesn't get better. I would love to see a shot if the B67 rollback.

Merry Christmas.

Speed and High Binder - I guess you guys didn't read all 17 pages. I bought the truck, have the title and its registered already. I also have 4 videos of it on YouTube. Links are somewhere in the tread here.

Merry Christmas everyone to you and your family's.
