    1936 Mack

    That was an eBay ad from last year; I doubt the truck is still for sale.
  3. Rough looking road! 2.5 bar is 36 psi.
  4. If you're not a Mack mechanic, you may want someone to look it over for you. Keep in mind this truck is 50 years old so it may need a lot of wrenching. Jim's right about DM 685's...they are a great truck with the right care.
  5. I've heard a lot of people call them split rims, that may not be the correct term but it gets used for them quite a bit.
  6. Fine looking R model!! I like the color combo and where the color line breaks.
  7. Do you have an idea what would be a minimum pressure for tube type? Mine are 10:00-20. I'll be bobtail most of the time (hobby truck).
  8. On FB, in Lenoir NC. Asking $9,000, looks like a decent truck. I see one shift lever, would the F785 have a 237/5 speed? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/678453836276169/
  9. I can honestly say I've never seen a rolloff with a double bunk COE before.
  10. Did you look the cam and lifters over real well on the inframe?
  11. It sure looked nice in those older photos!
  12. If the engine is original, it should be a 673, with 160 to 180 hp. For me the deal breaker is excess rust in the cab and sheet metal (or rust that's been covered with bondo). As far as oil pressure, I'll have to let one of the more knowledgeable guys answer that one.
  13. There's a lot of old trucks out there with modern engine swaps, like you say if you don't like it then tough. The old engines are neat but we don't all have to have them. It's better to preserve the sheet metal even if you put a different engine in it.
  14. The tipper definitely has 24.5s on the back and 22.5s on the front.
  15. Real easy trucks to work on.
  16. That red B has a 3208 Cat in it! Probably not too many of that combo around.
  17. There were a lot of mechanics back in the day that really wished for tilt-nose B models. I'm glad I didn't have to work on them! Tilt nose is the way to go.
  18. I don't believe I've ever seen one of these, I assume it's home made. https://columbus.craigslist.org/grd/d/carrollton-international-td340-crawler/7128381012.html
  19. The Mack numbers I have for Maxidyne Gold Paint are 312SX63P3 gal., 312SX63P2 spray can . I don't know if Mack still sells them. The paint code I have seen here on BMT is 348.
  20. I don't think I've ever seen an H with a 2 cycle before.
  21. It'd be a real shame to cut that truck up.
  22. The Ridgeway appears to be a 1953 Fageol Twin Coach.
  23. Give these guys a call...they have connections with a lot of obsolete/NOS Mack parts. Premium Truck Parts 2273 Robinwood Ave Toledo, Ohio 43620 (419) 699-1315
