Have fun with it while you are here.

After your gone that's another story

Someone else can do what they want with it.

Awesome project by the way

Awesome job!

My grandpa did that kind of lettering on trucks.

And hand lettering of signs.

I was 9 when he passed away

from throat cancer

And he to took the talent with him. None of his 4

Children learned a thing about it no interest to them.

He striped as well like you see on lots of old newengland trucks

And similar to yours jackb61sx How long did it take him to do your truck?

Rowdy

Where did you find it for 100.00 ?

I want one .

Make life little easier

We had similar issue and paint guy at Napa said it was the old

Mack lacquer paint reacting with newer single stage urethane .

Recommended completely strip it we used aircraft stripper because it was easy

And panels were in good shape. Good luck with it.

I look forward to reading the thread everyday thanks for posting!

How is the ranger?

Alternator survived ?

I had similar situation once

With shorted battery

Next day had to put new alternator on

Vehicle I was jumping off from but it seemed fine

After incident .

Any updates ?

I like the truck

Just curious what's

Happening or waiting on spring to

Play with it.

Navistar. !

Yeah my 2013 workstar

Did that no lights at all on rear

Bad connections high resistance burnt

Up module because guys who put dump body,plow and wing on it

Didn't do best job sealing it up .

so 1400.00 later lights working again

I had everything at trailer plug so if it happens agin

Probably put in a junction box and run off trailer harness

Rudy

YouTube rudy?

Was wondering if it was

Same truck .

Nice to have friends!

I find that usually you can count true

Friends on one hand. I

Like to watch your videos

And see your progress

Nice!

Looks good

Having fun with

The 2 old dogs

So what do you think

Caused the crack in case?

Water froze and cracked?

Or previous transmission failure?

Looks fixable though .

Nice truck !

Looks like a nice

Solid survivor

Good luck

And have fun with it

The general is nice!

But the real truck is

Towing the trailer

I searched mack museum allentown pa

On Google

And found the info and

Emailed them

I looked for years to find one.

My wife was talking to a friend of mine who located my truck
