  1. Merry Mack Christmas!
  2. JeffL's truck has a lot of rust, and the MB's are not popular restoration candidates anyway. Obviously if noone's bought carlot's truck then there's no point in trying to find a buyer for JeffL's.
  3. Sounds like you may be sucking air...are all the filters tight? Did you have any fuel lines loose when draining it? A loose or cracked fuel line will suck air.
  4. I agree with you, VaP. I don't have a urinal but I live out in the sticks so I just go behind the barn. It would be a pain in the keister to remove said boots every time I go.
  5. I remember back in the day that John Deere worked with DD on the development of the 60 series. I don't remember when Penske got involved.
  6. That big 6 x 6 is a beest!
  7. That RHD conversion on top of the dash sure is an ugly thing! Hayseed, thank you for posting an interesting article.
  8. If you're going to do all that, you should convert to an alternator.
  9. So what did Tomlin and Rooney do to be a disgrace? Right now I'm watching the Packers give Tomlin fits.
  10. Big Rig, that is some beautiful woodworking there.
  11. MT, I'm clueless on emission systems. What exactly does "the emissions system support failed" mean?
  12. Yeah, if he was a nice guy he wouldn't be able to do the things he did.
  13. Okay, I need a little education here. The operator's manual shows 3 "two-way valves". Would that be tractor parking, trailer parking, and ??? My '58 H67 has one of these valves mounted below the dash; I figured that was because they added maxibrakes at some point.
  14. Found on ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mack-Truck-Fiberglass-Sun-Visor-MCV4-MC2-Superliner-New-Old-Stock-Vintage/263332097821?hash=item3d4fd0ef1d:g:3WIAAOSwA~VaEL3V&vxp=mtr&autorefresh=true
  15. Found this video of truck pulls with several Superliners, including 2 very fine ones at 6:00 and 7:02.
  16. I've seen that done when someone had a bad rear end and they had a good axle sitting out back.
  17. That's exciting when you get framework standing up!
  18. When I was a kid we all looked up to Evel. I've seen a couple of documentaries about him recently and he was really a jerk. That's really sad to hear since he was such a hero to us.
  19. Honestly, with those things bouncing away I don't know how you could see anything.
  20. Billy, was that one of the things that Jifflox made? My dad had a small terminal in Jacksonville FL in the early 70's and I remember seeing some of those you're talking about. I don't know if they were CF trucks that I saw.
  21. Swishy, that twin steer is a fine looking truck.
  22. There's an MH grille on ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mack-Cabover-Grille-MR/292331509099?hash=item441050d56b:g:PDgAAOSw8b1aC-DN&vxp=mtr&autorefresh=true
  23. I always want to make some remark but you probably have already heard them all.
  24. Has it been smoking or leaking oil? It's possible you scored the liners when it overheated and now it's using a lot of oil. If that's the case you need an overhaul.
  25. I grew up around trucks and always wanted to drive one for a living. When I got into high school I took diesel mechanics at a vo-tech school so I would fully understand the engine, driveline, etc. When I graduated, I took a job at a Cat dealer working on truck engines since no one would hire an 18 year old to drive. Later on I got to do some OTR driving and found out that I actually enjoyed turning wrenches more than driving. What Mike says about opportunity is very true.
