That's a real pisser there. Of course there are other more precious things that can be lost due to over collecting Mack Trucks and related memorabilia, just ask Rob...

john montville will be at my christmas party next week the 4th, i can ask him about this truck ... matt

ive got a brand new old stock cab ,complete interior except drivers seat never mounted. still in primer ,call if interested 203 266 6455 ask for matt

My preference has always been Mack red hubs (PPG 72182 red) and white or light grey rims, with silver clamps & lug nuts>

just like kenny jayne used to do ,and then i had my 6 wheeler the same way. now i have kennys 6 wheeler in my collection , matt

it was alot of work to put the superliner front axle in , the u bolt spacing was different. and had to tap front axle holes put in 3/4/ inch threaded rod and then redrillholes for the b model spring spacing. the reason for this is because the holes are a half of a hole difference. then the power steering box that was mounted on the front axle also needed some modification. what was great about thts was i could also use the superliner colum in the trck. we also put in a trdlx1070 12 speed and used the swing pedal all of this took about 2 weeks of steady work as it is all trail and error any questions call me ...

we have a 743 nhb with a single disc pump its skipping like crazy and loads of fuel in oil, its not fuel dribble, there is way to much fuel in oil to be that, pulled #1,2 , injector copper sleeve might be cracked, i would like to pull them out but i dont want to destroy them . have motors manuals coming out my ears and none of them have 'how to' also have tons of cummings manuals also no" how to". single dics pump also has oil preasure feed to it wondering if seals might be bad , engine is running on 3 maybe 4 cylinders, 1,5,6 not working going to try to mve injectors to other cylinder to see if the skip will follow ,but its not easy as rocker boxes have to come off with each move, the external fuel lines are in good shape as are the tubes from the outside of the head to the injector dont really want to pull pan off and preasurize fuel system but i am almost sure i am going to have to

we use power brake xchange in pittsburg pa they have rebuild units back into the 20s for us. power steering units ,vacuum , units, power brake and master cylinder units also. call me ,i dont have phone number in front of me at the moment call 203 266 6455 ask for matt

I trying to find the vehicle identification number for a 1950 Mack A-50.

I have been told that I could find it stamped on the frame but I have been all over this thing

and cannot find it. Can anyone help me out.

Thanks,

look on the passenger side rear frame rail around the rear spring hanger. if the truck has been cut or shortened its gone

that appears to be a b815 not 615 the front spring hangers are the give away, still a very rare unit

it should be mack power engine grey which your local mack dealer should have in spray cans ....

well, bob doubs old n model is going up for sale on e-bay , man does it look bad, 12 years of sitting outside have done a number on it. that truck started life as afire truck in hicksville ny. as a light and generator truck, bob found it for sale and had me do a complete restoration on it. even though it had alot of ford parts on it some were made just for the mack cab , we bought a whole truck just for the fiberglass grill that is painted white. the ford version was different. interior still looks good , but hte outside looks bad, so much for that great old kirker paint. i have not used that stuff since that job, just doesnt hold up like PPG. hope somebody picks this up for a song , bob hade over 45k in this . had a brand new harness made by dill products and also a new exaust system made by donaldson, the truck made its last appearance at rodger gerharts in 96.bobs old b-model went to ILL. i think . hope it gets a new life not many around,

I've never tried to separate the 2 rails of a rust spread double frame, but if I did, I would make double sure all fasteners from one end to the other are removed, then try to start from one end, maybe put a chisel between the 2 rails (in the vertical section) and hammer it in like a wedge to try to get it to start separating, then use something larger, like a wood splitting wedge once it starts coming apart.

Just go easy, so the frame doesn't get distorted.

I'm sure Matt Pfahl would have a method for doing this, perhaps he'll see this and chime in.

we do use a small chisel to get them going and then use a wood splitting mall after , then because of the length of some of the rails we start pounding in 4x4s watch out when they finally come out they are heavy and you will be suprized at the amount of rust. sandblast .etch prime,paintand reasemble them with large alignmet punches and c clamps. some times we do re rivet ,or cheat and use bolts with the head rounded off

well trick my truck ruined another truck a train set in the sleeper , give me a break ,and b61 emblems on a b75. nice way to take off the sleeper also !!!!

ive got quad box parts and whole trannys coming out my ears give me a call 203 266 6455 ask for matt
