I put a 300 in my B61... and tried to use the original clutch... I quickly found out it wouldn't work... Would drive right thru it with weight or when accelerating in higher gears at lower speeds... I had a button disc clutch made for it and it has worked fine ever since.. Be sure your using a double counter trans or you'll pound the front input shaft bearing with heavier loads...

Great looking Mack Wrecker.... Very nice..

No I don't think he does, not yet unless he has seen it here already.... He's a good man I've known him a long time... I haven't really put it out anywhere else.... and have only posted it here....

I have my 1956 Mack B61T Wrecker listed in the "Trucks for Sale" Forum... I would be possibly interested in a trade for a Dozer, Excavator or 4X4 Extend a hoe Backhoe.... My bottom line on my truck is $40,000.00 firm.... So trades would have to be close in value... you can go to the "Trucks for Sale " forum for a complete description and pictures of my truck... it's listed under " Considering Selling y 1956 Mack B61T Wrecker" Thanks.. Be safe and be well... Steve (201) 921-4390 or gas69@aol.com

Looks like an old Garwood Military unit, I owned several of those over the years... Extreamly under rated units ..... Would love to see that one completed.... Very nice....

Moreno out of CT. bought most of Gerosa's trucks... I know they have the Big B-Mack and M series Macks and one of the Autocar's

Al the way it was explained to me, Antique vehicles fall into the RV catagory, no CDL required, not required to stop at DOT weigh stations... and you are correct they must not be for hire....Be safe and take care Al...

Thank you all... I have sold my Towing operation and most recently just sold the last of our garages... I have purchased a Farm in Northern, NJ and the Mack don't fit in the Barn. I am planning to build a bigger barn, but I figure it will be a year or more before I get everything in place to begin construction, I really don't want to see it outside in the weather that long and get weather beaten and rusted. So I figure if it could go to someone who will continue to use and show it as have it will be fitting to it's name on the front "The Legend Lives On" .... I'm not as young as I use to be and it's but a matter of time maybe I might not even be able to drive it anymore, I figure maybe it's best I find it a good home while I can..... Thanks.... Steve

Thanks... I'm sure the truth will be told in the end? But like you said? The media is the judge and exicutioner. Our business has suffered tremendously. And unfortunately? We never get the media coverage saying your innocent that you get when your accussed? We don't know what were going to do business wise yet? But it's safe to say? It won't ever be the same again. It's amazing how a nobody can ruin a lifetime of hard work of someone else? Thank you all for your thoughts.. Be safe and stay well all... Steve

I'd like to say that you have only read a one sided media barrage. There are 2 sides to every story. These charges are based on the coments of 2 individuals who were caught in the act of possesion of stolen property and arson. These two individuals are involved in allot more than the media says at this time. I can not comment on much more because of current investigations that are underway. We feel confident the truth will be exposed in the end. I can only ask you all keep an open mind to the conclusion of this case. I can only hope the media would report our innocense as well as they did these allegations? But I'm sure that's asking for to much. Thanks for listening.. Be safe

How do you access the photo album? Thanks

Your very welcome..Glad I could help... Steve

Comments:  About christmas I bought a parts truck from steve at highpoint towing, It was an old firetruck and what I needed was the cab.

I talked to steve and price was set, and I sent him the money, I got a guy to come a get the truck and he even helped get the old truck on the trailer. He even let the driver that picked up the truck sleep in the office from what I was told.

The truck was just as he told me, the price was very fair, I would say everything turned out as good as it could.

Thanks steve!!

Ron I disconnected the puff eliminator... Yeah it did run better... Considerably when up in a hiher gear.. You could now feel the truck wanna pull... it's still a bit lazy... I'm gonna replace the spring check valve (T-shaped Valve) at the injection pump... I'm told these weaken after a while and tend to reduce fuel pressure slightly.... I'll keep you posted... Steve

I'll check the puff eliminator today.. I didn't even think of that... Thanks..Steve

Ok... Yeah your right..... Good luck

Thanks Trent.. It's worth a look for sure.... Thanks.. Steve
