This was in a pile of parts I got; I don't need it. As you can see, the needle is broken...free to a good home if you pay shipping. PM me your address and I'll send it to you.

This was in a pile of parts I got; I have no need for it. It's in really nice shape; free to a good home if you pay for shipping. PM me your address and I will go ahead and send it to you.

1973, do you do body and paint work full time, or is it a hobby? -
Since it's only at boost, I would bet money on an exhaust leak. One trick I've used (if you don't see a smoke trail anywhere on manifold or gaskets) is to use a mechanic's stethoscope that has a hose to the working end. Pull the hose off and nose around the exhaust gaskets, manifold, etc. If there's a miniscule leak you'll pick it up with the stethoscope...just be careful because if you go jabbing that hose into a leak too fast you could damage your ear drums!

What model of truck do you need parts for?

Good catch...it pays to give things the "wide angle view". I've missed things in the past by not taking the time to look everything over.

The movie 'Maximum Overdrive' and old Macks
h67st replied to Jamaican Bulldog's topic in Mack on the Silver Screen
I watched it the other night...lots of video of an RL700 and FL700...it was cool watching them and the great scenery (filmed in the southwest and Mexico). Several shots of the driver shifting the duplex. -
If you go to "You Know Who's" Truck Pictures, the Dan Espinosa Collection has some original factory photos of a Turnpike Cruiser with a really sharp 12v-71 in it. http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/espinosa6.htm

That must be a Star Trek reference...I only remember a little about the original show and never watched the sequels so I'm at a loss.
-
A lot of it has to do with the mechanicals...does it run and drive well? Is the steering tight, brakes strong? It would be hard to get more than $5,000 if you can't hop in and drive it. Transportation is another cost, if you can't find a buyer locally that can knock a grand off the value.

Has anyone ever seen a knob like this? It's glass with a brass thread insert (5/8" fine thread); the inside has green, yellow, and white stripes. Outside diameter is about 1-7/8". The guy I bought one of my H67's from was also restoring a 1951 GMC pickup, so it's possible this came out of that truck. Maybe a floor lamp part?

That truck looks fast just sitting still.

Nice lineup down the street from me

Yeah...I like the Dodge. What if I was offended by their Koi pond...would they have to remove it? -
1999 CH613 Cab Replacement
h67st replied to green4440's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
A decent piece of steel box tubing or heavy wall pipe would work in place of the 4x4. -
Mack cab
h67st replied to Kansas farmer's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Never even been installed. -
I want to know who's been smelling a dog's butt.

Is this your same B model, and you painted it? -
1963 Mack B-75
h67st replied to j hancock's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Wow...just wow. -
There are some very cool Macks in Johnstown. ;-) Of course, the coolest ones belong to Maverick.

ECO B MODEL
h67st replied to russell t's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That is a cool sounding motor, but being raised hearing a 673 running I would rather hear the Mack. Strictly nostalgia. -
I'll bet a 4-71 with 5 cars behind it would be a real snail!

ECO B MODEL
h67st replied to russell t's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
It's a great project...Keith S is doing a careful, quality build. I like the idea but he'll have to have a CD of a 673 running through the gears while he's driving it. -
I like your philosophy on the Dupont overhauls. What was welded to the back of the cab?
-
seal choice and bearing preload.
h67st replied to tom1361's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
As you show in step 3, torque to 50 lb. ft. and back off until the lock ring will slide on. After you torque the locknut, there is preload on the bearing.
