Mack man 1973

I like stock with tastefull upgrades that does not give to much modern look and I DO NOT like B models on anything else besides dayton wheels . My oppion every old truck looks good in my eyes with a set of Daytons painted two tone with axle chrome covers and nut covers just looks rugged . Also like period correct paint colors modern colors do not look right on old trucks just my opipions

Gitty up go ( red sovine) and teady bear ( red sovine ) gitty up go is what is on the bug guard of my R model

Go with an e7 vs the mp engine . The e7 is a almost bullet proof engine and very dependable and will do just as well at pulling as larger competitor engines . As far as trans go in my oppion a 9 or 10 speed is all that is needed for your application . Eaton transmissions are a little easier to shift than Mack trans and easier to pull out when a clutch is needed . You would not be disappointed with an e7 powered of what ever Mack model strikes your fancy

The guys in the parts dept a flag city Mack findlay Ohio are the best .all guys who have been around a long time I know them all well . I was one of those guys to . Recommend them

I have been trying to find a used Lund style visor for my 72R . Lund is out of business anyone have an extra they would want to sell ?

i have a ch tractor I am putting new drive tires on . I have heard that double coins tires hold up Good the price is good on them are they worth fooling with any oppions ? The tractor will be used for farm use and hauling a drop deck trailer with a trac hoe occationaly . Thanks

Very nice I like the attention to details I would be proud to cruise that truck around

Thanks mike

I am looking at buying a 1982 RWS with an e9 400 v8 with a Mack 9 speed it is currently a dump truck with a 20' grain body on it.was originally a tractor day cab the truck overall is in good shape does have some minor rust hood is in good shape not broken anywhere and it has fresh recaps on the drives it is a tandem steer tires are new Virgin rubber. The only thing wrong with it is it dropped a valve seat in the left rear head a needs repaired which I can do just not sure what to offer the guy he told me to make an offer just not sure where to be any oppions ? I will post some pics when I go over to look at it again

Cooler is left over from a parts truck I had . Cooler is good it is out of a 2005 cv or aka granite dump truck the motor was e7 460 I'd take 300.00 for it

Enjoy the ole girl !

If the evap isn't filthy you can clean it put a new expansion valve and I always clean the heater box and and blow out the duct work. Also make sure you put on a new receiver dryer as well . Another trick I learned on the early red dot hvac systems is they did not come with a filter like the berg storm units in cx, cv etc and the dirt plugs up evap and you get hardly any air flow so before I Put the intake duct on the heater box on the passenger side I get one of those blue filters they use on the later models to protect the evap from dirt then when it gets dirty you only have to change the filter not clean the whole system again

My he heater core can come out without removal of the evap but not the other way around . I have done a lot of repairs on these systems have any questions let me know

I think we should start a poll on what series Mack truck is the most popular series when people hear the word Mack truck what comes to your mind ? I think in my opinion first place goes to the R series for sure even if your not a Mack enthusiast everyone knows the R series . Followed by the B series in second , then I think the CH series one of my personal favorites like em or not you can't deny there popularity

I got these from a guy who is retiring . I do not need all of them will sell two of them they are all 8vbb pumps these do not go on an e9 they were for endt 865 or 866 engines I have no idea of what condition they are in they have all been in a climate controlled building since removal to they are not all rusted up . Message me or call 419-595-2512 if interested make me a fair offer
