I recently purchased a B67T contour cab single axle tractor. My intention is to disassemble and restore this truck to original spec, although I may seek advice for a higher speed rear end ratio. The plan is to use this truck, and I have gotten an old Fontaine single axle, fixed neck low boy trailer to pull.
There are enough old toys around my house to keep the Mack employed - my family and I also own a restored Willys 4x4 pickup, an Oliver HG-42 crawler tractor, a Ford Golden Jubilee tractor, an old Case tractor and various implements to move around. We are in the building business, so I am sure that we should be able to find a lot of loads to move for "business" purposes too.
Although the Mack is all original now (the truck had just one freight company owner), I intend to add maxi brakes, and as I said, I think I will look for more highway speed. The loads I will pull are quite light and the TRD72 duplex, I believe, has plenty of low gear.
Barry, I sure could use Owner's and Service manuals. Please contact me at vanscottbuilders@rochester.rr.com at your earliest convenience to set up an ongoing account for these manuals, and the long list of parts to come!
