B-73 Restoration
h67st replied to mattb73lt's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Nothing like getting things cleaned up and new paint on them! I notice your floor looks old...when you built your new shop, did you reuse the old foundation and floor? -
Great video, snowdog! I think the R model captures the spirit of Clint Eastwood in the western movies.

Wah wah wah! I've got The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly on my Hulu watchlist right now. I wonder how many times I've watched this over the years...Speaking of westerns, when they remade True Grit with Jeff Bridges, a lot of people said it was better than the original and The Duke was overweight and out of shape for the original. I watched both, and those folks are full of hooey! The remake was good, but John Wayne was stellar in the first one. My favorite Wayne movie was Big Jake...what about you guys?

Now that's a sharp lineup! -
In order for that H to be worth $6,500, either the cab would have to be rust-free or it would have to be road-ready. I don't think that's the case.

Looks like some rust, especially at the drip rail. Seller says the 237 runs good. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1968-U-Model-Mack-Truck-Single-Axle-Tractor-runs-/132273312470?hash=item1ecc1a92d6:g:MBkAAOSwzVhZd4Hq&vxp=mtr&autorefresh=true

Why can't I post pics?
h67st replied to xdudebrahx's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
One thing I do is send the photos to my computer first ("wifi photo" is a free app that works great), then they go right into the attach box. I hope this helps. -
Wayne, that's a nice-looking Suburban...looks like you have no problem getting around in the snow or mud.

I saw this B on ebay with a Cummins...I recognize the fuel shutoff solenoid, but not the valve cover! What Cummins is that? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1956-Mack-/152635252513?hash=item2389c51f21:g:L8oAAOSwW9ZZdNeg&vxp=mtr

66dc75, that is a classic lowboy...love that curved gooseneck. Nice looking trailer.
-
Great pix guys! Montana is a beautiful state. Along with what Truck Shop said, a few years back we rode bikes (the pedal kind) on the Route of the Hiawatha in western Montana...absolutely beautiful country.
-
Yeah, I like skirts myself.
-
Early '80s 3406b was a good motor...if it's been maintained, it should be a nice engine.
-
Yes, I've lived in Johnstown Ohio for the past 25 years. The humidity was so bad today my shirt was dripping with sweat. Last month we spent a week in St. Lucia which is almost as far south as Venezuela and the humidity wasn't nearly as bad.
-
Is that a Hendrickson walking beam? How do they ride--smooth or not?
-
Looks like a hot day, but very low humidity makes it comfortable. I lived in Las Cruces for a year; I liked it a lot. Of course now with global warming, it's probably hotter than back in those days. Or is it global cooling? I keep forgetting.
-
Yes, but not sure of the model. Here's a similar one.
-
Thank you for all suggestions, especially Brocky, 41chevy, and Steve S.! I'll let you know when I get something that works.

Working A Mile High

A mile high...are you out west? Looks like a roadbuilding job. -
Okay, there's not much unusual about this truck except that it was a '76 and a friend of mine had his '87 get totaled so I put the TBI engine, computer, and wiring harness in my '76. I did a frame-off at the same time; I loved that truck but it was a 1/2 ton so I ended up selling it in order to buy a 3/4 ton. I didn't care for the driveability of the TBI--the throttle was either on or off; no feathering. I have a '79 with a Holley carb and the throttle is really nice.

Somebody just posted a bunch of nice brochures for B, C, E, F, H, and N models on Ebay. Just search for "Mack truck brochure" and you'll see them.

Keith, is that brown liquid in the cup a special rust-eating chemical? ;-) I decided to try the drill method; I was surprised at how easy the rivets drill. I started with a 1/8" and stepped up to a 1/2" bit, I kept the drill slow and lots of oil--it went fairly quickly. Chiseled the head off and the body popped right out.

I like Irfanview...it's a free download and it's very easy to resize and save photos. You just hit Ctrl + R, select the size you want, and after that hit Ctrl + S to save. Doesn't take up a lot of space on your hard drive either. -
That floor pan is ridiculous! It looks like a map of Minnesota.

I like your wrecker--it looks like it's ready to hook up and go to work.
