  1. A 77 CL wouldn't have a 2 speed rear, would it? Could it be for antilock brakes?
  2. Those are some Macks you don't see in the US.
  3. No, you were facing your computer the wrong way when you looked at them.

    There's a Large on ebay right now, but the iron-on looks kinda crackly. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mack-Truck-Shirt-Trucker-Semi-Vintage-large-black/223024750746?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3Dade113c323d8461a8181211cdf90f6af%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D153059645699%26itm%3D223024750746&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507
  5. I knew Aussie truckers were some tough guys, but stopping without brakes tops the list!!
  6. 8 metric tons = 17,600 lbs. I think that's on the heavy side; my H67 single axle with 673 weighs 10,000. I'd say that LJ is somewhere close to mine or Hobert's B model.
  7. That is really a nice-looking truck!
  8. Black is good except for when you're out in the hot sun.
  9. Also make sure your thermostat is good and the water pump is circulating correctly.
  10. Maybe if the signs were posted on their smartphones they'd see them.
  11. For those who need software to resize your photos, I like Irfanview. It's free to download and easy to use. When you open a photo, you can click 'ctrl + r' and then select a new size (I use 1920 x 1440 pixels, makes about a 600kb file size). Then hit 'ctrl + s' to save and select a new name for the file or just hit enter to replace the old photo with the new size.
  12. Yes, I rebuilt a lot of air fuel ratio units on 3406 Cats back in the 90s, that was pretty much the extent of the emission controls on them. Quick, easy rebuild and back on the road you go.
  13. Okay, well I don't know if it was a great idea to have the thing blasted...there was a boat load of bondo that you couldn't see and now there's a lot of daylight! I dropped it off at the body shop this morning, I'm afraid to see what the bill is going to be.
  14. I don't see a way to comment on pix in the new photo layout. Those pictures you posted of the electric B look great...I'll bet it's a good feeling to see tires on your truck!
  15. Big B on eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1962-Mack-B81/263755449539?hash=item3d690cc4c3:g:xKwAAOSwiMRbISDf
  16. You should have posted those two pictures individually so I could like each one!! Those are some nice lookin hoods (and probably the rest of the truck too).
  17. My paint and body guy is ready for the cab so I took the cab & other body parts to the soda blaster on Friday.
  18. Truck Shop, is that winch on your W900 tow truck?
  19. I like that GMC pickup too.
  20. Yeah, that frame looks pretty crusty.
  21. I've seen later model Mack letters and emblems that were plastic, I don't know about Econodyne ones specifically.
  22. The ad says this truck has never been used...looks super nice, but that price tag is somebody's dream (or nightmare!). https://www.ebay.com/itm/2001-Mack-Fire-Truck-Model-9/232796838250?hash=item3633c5d96a:g:YYwAAOSw5PJbGEjn&autorefresh=true
  23. It's a terrible thing to think about all those lives lost and what freedom cost.
  24. I've used Toyota FIPG (form in place gasket) on several things that I didn't have a gasket for; I've never had them leak yet. It doesn't smell like RTV but it definitely has some silicone in it.
