Would you mind posting a picture? Id like to see it. There is one going to an auction in late september.. i dont remember where i saw it though..is that yours?

I did. He did not respond. After i turned down his offer he offered me his 68 camaro. I declined on that too. Ive been offered a few nice cars but like i said i have my eye on one. I emailed the guy and told him. Maybee it was an impulse buy on his part because he did not respond.. idk.. internet world isnt the real world sometimes...

My biggest problem is i moved from MD to PA. I have a large garage but it doesnt fit..too hi. I dont want to just see her sitting outside. I have an opertunity to buy a damn nice 56 f100 also but but need to sell the Mack to buy the 56. Multiple reasons for the sale.

Yes it is. Still looks good as the day it was finished but only has 6k miles since completed. Chopped..tubbed..shaved. The motor is a 350 4 bolt built to .30 over 1970 lt1 350 specs. Trans is 700r4.

And thats not restored..thats custom. These never looked that good even new. Id like to see the rest of that truck!

I was offered 20k on ebay as a best offer 1st time i listed it. I shoulda taken it but i had just put it on market so i thought id hold out for more. Im not worried. It will happen.

Reminds me of colors on my c10

Thats damn nice..ok ok lol you win. Doesnt change im not letn it go less than 18k lol.. is that your truck? Looks damn nice..

Also..i will come down to 18k. Not want i wanted but i think its a fair price for a buyer and myself.

Its not an easy sell but itll happen. It is mostly restored. The only think not restored is the ibterior. Recover the seats.. repaint dash..bot that its bad..and seat frames. Redo weather strip on side windows and install a sunvisor. Then the trucks completely restored. Its not far away. It could be done in a weeks time with 1000 dollars or less.

Im going to advertise in Wheels of Time. Everyones been telling me its a good market to sell in. I wont take 15,000 its too low. Seen many B61 go for more than that in worse shape. But thanks for the suggestion anyway.

I relisted it but as a buy it now with best offer.

Well no sale on ebay.. it is still for sale.

I wish i had went to york. That would have been too cool to see two 71's on the road together!! I wish he had went to carlisle. I did make it there.

Superdog... that is awesome!!!! Do you plan on restoring any of them?

Also.. any idea why it is soo hard to sell? I think im fair on price.. am i wrong? I will take 20k for it.

Have any of you seen a 71 in person before? Just curious. Thanks

I just looked at the build sheet from Mack on my truck. It says "carrier ratio 5.77. Does that sound right? I have the build sheet. Shows all the same numbers for engine..trans..rear..and shows the saddle tank. Let me know if this answer helps.

Thank you! They only made 522. Dont know where they all went??? Wrecks..rust?

I like running it at 50mph. 55 is ok also but 50 is easier at about 1600 rpm.

First i want to say thank you to BMT for letting me post this here. Hi.. I am trying to sell my 1956 Mack B71. It runs and drives excellent. It has the original Cummins 220 and the original Duplex 10 speed trans. It has a catwalk saddle tank. The body is restored..brakes and tires are all new. The valves are adjusted and all fluids changed. Its ready for you. I am motivated to sell because i have my eyes on another truck. It is also listed on ebay but i am taking offers..do t be shy please make me an offer.I want to sell it soon. I dont know how to paste a link to my ebay listing but if you want to see pictures just type Mack B-71 on ebay and it will come up. Thanks to all of you and Big Mack Trucks!!
