I have the original sales receipt and build sheets for it. Along with owners name and address at that time. I bought it from the second owner who basically just drove it home. Original sale price was $27,800.00

Looks like a common later series R-model cab to me. What's wrong with the existing one? From the pics it looks like a couple of spray cans could do the fix.
Floors and rain gutters are almost missing and rocker panels are full of body filler.

What's the little radiator (?) in front of the radiator ?
Original owner mod. It has a belt driven water pump and it’s hook up to the aftercooler. Has its own water cooling system.

I just got home today a RS753 it has the 1674 cat with a Eaton 13 speed

If you don’t want 4wd I’d look into using a bread truck chassis

753: Isn't that CAT powered? Looks like it needs rescuing although the cab looks rough.
It has a 1674 cat and looks like a 13 speed and 4 spring reyco. I think the L in the vin means light weight? Looks to have a bunch of aluminum brackets. Cab looks to be about beyond repair and hood is broke several place too. I’ll keep ya’s posted.

Finally got the engine out today. Made plates that bolted on the intake rear head and the exhaust front. Came out nice.
But now I have a question. My engine is sitting level on blocks on the shop floor and the bell housing has a bolt directly at 12 o’clocK. The Tranny is also sitting on the floor level and has bolts at 11 & 1. How is the bolt spacing on a standard B? I know my pattern is to create the 18 degree tilt of of the engine and keep the tranny level. Just wondering wich is different for the b67.
-
I’m really thinking of cutting my sheet metal and converting it into a tilt front. Just got the engine out and once I get the new steering box squared away that will be next.
I spoke with Kevin All he is in the process of building and going to sell original looking fiberglass tilt fronts for the B.

Some of the mack transmissions are pretty long, hope when it is balanced tail shaft does not hit the bottle jack. terry
My Mack Tranny is already out. Prob be the last one I have.(but I could be wrong). The one I copied the yoke sat right on top of the crossbar for jack just like it was made for it.

As I recall, you can also cut a pipe the expanse of the inside of the frame rails. Lay the pipe crossways tight up to the open bell. Insert 2 bolts about 5” long into the bellhousing mount face wherever is close to the pipe... maybe 4 o’clock and 8 o’clock. Rest the engine onto the cross-pipe via the over-length bell bolts.
I thought of using a chain around frame and some bell housing bolts but they are only 3/8” bolts and didn’t know if 2 would be heavy enough.

Came right out once I figured what to do at clutch linkage. Now any suggestions how to hold the engine up? It’s currently sitting on a large oak block and 20 ton bottle jack off bell housing . The trucks going to have to move forward about 20’ when it’s time to pull engine (my garage isn’t big enough).

The 67 also has a smaller diameter wheel then the regular B does.
