  1. Mine is a 1960 non turbo. I had the same problem with the shuttes stuck open the temp gauge hardly registered. I checked for a thermostat and there is none. The housing is just a nipple for the radiator hose. I got the shutters to work and now run about 170 degrees. They never open only when you shut it off. I don't know if the low temp does any damage but they sure run better at temp.
  2. Yes! I'll take the steam.
  3. Love It!
  4. Vlad, Good to know. The cracks in mine are hardly noticeable just hope they don't get worse anytime soon. Maybe there is a body filler that would be better suited. I don't really have any recent experience with the fillers.
  5. I used PC 7 two part with a little thinner of acetone a couple of years ago for some pretty big cracks. It did a nice job, sanded out smooth. I do have a couple of hairline cracks showing now. You have to look close but they are there
  6. Yes. Congrats. Any pictures?
  7. Great pictures. Thanks. The Jack Daniels rat rod is wild with the DD sound effects to match.

    Congratulations on your purchase. Definitely not a "carry on".
  9. It's about time for an extended weather forecast check.

  11. Lot's of nice looking iron. Sorry I missed it.
  12. Great pictures. Always look forward to them. Iowa 80 sure has grown since I was there about 15 years ago. Makes you want to go again.
  13. Here's a couple of pictures if I can figure out how to attach them. Looks like the "keyhole" was cut for something other than the trailer valve.
  14. It looks like the bracket that goes at the center back of the cab where the trailer air hoses and vavle attach.
  15. Mine is a 673 n/a and the readings are just about the same cold and the hot readings are 12 at idle and about 30 at rpm. I've had the valve covers and side covers off and things are fairly clean. I change oil and filter each year and don't use any oil. Maybe leak a little. The truck leads a life of leisure at about 2K miles per year.
  16. That is almost criminal to let a beautiful truck like that sledge up so bad. What are your readings (hot at idle and rpm)?
  17. Welcome to the World of Mack and the site. Keep us posted along with pictures.
  18. Nice. Certainly deserving of the love.
  19. Congratulations. It's a beauty.
  20. Pretty cool masks. If we must wear them they should be. I remember Hamm's from back in the 50s & 60s. Their slogan was "from the land of sky blue waters". Hope you ankle gets better quick.
  21. Very Nice!
  22. Defiantly a good lookin' truck.
  23. Definitely do it.
