Good ol' air starter! Nice video.

One other question--I have to pour fuel in the inlet line to get the primer pump to work, even then a lot of pumping. It also loses prime, even though I put all new fittings, fuel lines, filter, etc. Will a bad primer pump cause it to lose prime? I had the injection pump rebuilt but I don't know if they checked out the primer and check valves.

BR549's number is a good one, although I'm not familiar with the filter on your particular truck. That crosses to BALDWIN PF819, CARQUEST 86090, FLEETGUARD FF107, or LUBER-FINER L91F.

I used Nason DS138 which is supposed to be a good match for Mack engine gray but it's actually got a lot of green in it.

I've got a vinyl record that came out of one of my dad's magazines (CCJ? Transport Topics?) in the 70's called "Sounds of the Turbine-Powered Peterbilt". These old prototype trucks are really cool!

Really looks sharp!

I really like that Chevy Cabover I drove a GMC Astro only one day kind of the same thing Wayback in 1976 they were both very cool rigs ... bob

My dad had a couple of Astros back in 1974, some of the features were pretty nice. Low wraparound dash, big windshield, tilt wheel. They had low-mount side mirrors, I don't know how well those worked.

Thank you Joey!

Even has an after market hill climbing helper on the right side of the cab. 

I was working at a Cat dealer in 1981, we had a brand new 3208 come in that would make a sound like valves hitting the pistons every time you started it. We checked a lot of things over before the lead mechanic noticed the spaghetti line feeding into the intake. Come to find out it had an electric solenoid that put a shot of ether in there every time you started it, no thermostat to cancel it when the engine was warm.

The control line port is 1/4 pipe by the way. Seems more like a 3/8 line; if they want you to use 1/2 they should have put 3/8 pipe threads there.

I'm using all Bendix brake valves and nylon lines on my truck; this is an R12 relay valve for the service brakes. What size control line should I use from the treadle valve...3/8" or 1/2"? If anyone has a service brake relay valve on their truck, could you look at what size your line is? Thank you!

I got this in a lot of Mack parts; I don't know what it is. The bolt holes are 4-3/4" on center...you can see what the part number is (it was still sealed in the bag). If anybody can use it, PM me your address and I will ship it to you.

There's also a 1979 R model that looks decent...I'll start a new post for that one.

Definitely a White 3000. I wonder if the concrete blocks are stacked on the Bobcat tires to keep the wind from blowing it away?

$8,500.

That's above my pay grade. What is the coil on?

I got hired in 73 to replace a guy that got hit with one... bob

What condition was he in after the hit? Interesting that you say that, because I got hired as a truck fleet mechanic in 1984 at Pic-Way Shoes after the guy before me stopped in the street to pick up a carton of cigarettes that someone dropped. A lady who was legally blind ran over him and he was killed.

This ad on ebay says this was part of their historical fleet and stored indoors. Looks really sharp! $34,500 or best offer.
