F model for sale in Florida
h67st replied to jakebrake86's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
It does look like an ex fire truck...that would explain the red paint and the nice condition. That's a mess of Macks in the background!! -
Must be sold...the listing's gone.

I've done a few kingpins, they were always brass bushings. When we needed to heat them up to work on them, we would pump some fresh grease in them after heating to cool down the bushings.

Looks pretty decent. http://chillicothe.craigslist.org/cto/3720078949.html

Came across this pic of Mark Fidrych (The Bird), a baseball player from Mass whose career was cut short by an undiagnosed rotator cuff tear. He was working on his truck (I don't know if it was this one) in 2009 when his clothes got caught in the spinning PTO shaft and suffocated him. He was a good guy who sadly died too young, but at least he had good taste in trucks.

Progress continues.

Mack and Brockway buildings
h67st replied to Maddog13407's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Well, it's not a Mack or Brockway building but we did save a Binder dealer here in Columbus Ohio. If you look at where the old truck is parked next to the building, my office (where I'm sitting right now) is right there. The IHC stuff was removed in the Fifties, so we didn't get the chance to save any of it. It's now an office building for several different businesses.

I have a full size GMC for hauling, but my daily driver is a Toyota Camry. I've been driving Toyotas since 1986, wouldn't have any other vehicle. They're built like a...well...they're just well built.

Quebec Mack truck
h67st replied to mackniac's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That's a nice looking dump...I like the set back axle. If that dog's going to carry the ball, he'd better wear a helmet. -
I'm not up to snuff on newer Macks, but when I worked on trucks the biggest problem we saw was boost pressure leaks...split hoses, broken clamps, or cracked aftercooler. Look over all the pipes from your turbo to aftercooler and then to intake manifold.

Beautiful DC-75 on ebay...show quality. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Professionally-restored-1965-Autocar-DC-75-/271178948859?pt=Commercial_Trucks&hash=item3f238660fb#v4-40

I've never had a Mack apart...when I was a kid I remember my dad's mechanic using dry ice to shrink new liners to slip them into a Mack block (673?). Are those "dry" liners (coolant doesn't touch the liner)? I worked on Cat and Cummins all my life; they use "wet" liners (coolant touches them)...they pull out pretty easy with a puller and you just "pop" them in with lube on the o-rings. We worked on a lot of engines that didn't get proper maintenance on the coolant, and cavitation would pit the liners to the point that they would either leak into the oil pan or right into the cylinder.

Connecticut Construction Trucks

Are you talking about a truck or a woman? -
Freightrain, it could have been built by Freightliner. Here's one I found online, but not the one I remember.

Sorry, forgot to attach the picture.

Not like these other trucks, but an Autocar just the same. This picture was taken in 1942, man's name was Dan Edwards. My granddad bought the business but kept the Edwards name.

When I was a kid back in the 70's we went to the Ohio State Fair and they had a miniature PIE tractor trailer. It was a daycab COE, about the same size as "Fuzzy's". I can still remember how awestruck I was to see that little truck...whoever built it did a fantastic job.

Two out of three photos look great!

220cummins, that B looks great...do you have some more photos here on the site? -
If this one's worth $14k, then mine's probably worth $20k!!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1967-H-Model-H67-Mack-Tractor-Runs-and-partially-restored-/130868248952?pt=Commercial_Trucks&hash=item1e785b0178#v4-40
