B42

I decided not to get this, I always had bad luck when Anything "More than Rare" as I've been on hold for 6 Years looking for parts for my 75 Pontiac Grand LeMans (1 of 6000)

Instead might get a 77 IH 4070B Sleeper Single axle, Running & Driving Low miles.  

Here's the add if anyone wants to try to get it. https://zanesville.craigslist.org/cto/d/1971-brockway-n4571-coe-mack/6650058080.html

I ain't even heard of wedge brakes till now. At 20 yrs old I mostly only know some of the Mid 80s trucks parts 

I'm not sure but I can give you his Number to call. 

A few people I talked to on facebook said, These used Wedge brakes which are readily available but very hard to find Parts for plus someone to repair them Most shops now days won't touch them Their mechanics don't know anything about them... Resale is good and they are exceptionally hard to find parts for Just don't find them sitting around for parts, even as much as old GMCs.  An aluminum cab in an older truck is preferable over steel because of the rust. 

A friend said Cabs lose on chassis was a problem, So bad it would move when driving enough to cause the accelerator to stick. (<-- WOW) The cab is made by Sheller globe for Brockway and Mack... 

So with that little bit Not sure how this will go If Not hell I'll buy that Dodge next to it!!! LOL, I know Old Tony Youngblood will wanna buy it from me for Parts! hahaha.

The only guy who owns more than 3 Dodge Big Horns!!

Somebody should get it for the very precious front windshield glass if the cab is no good.

I'm trying to buy it right now as we speak, if i can't save it i will part it out.

Hopefully the roof doesn't blow off on the way home!  Definitely quite an undertaking to bring that back.

I haven't seen much updates on the fellow that did that F model.  Turned out very nice.

ah ok. I'm not on very much only when I need info or help hope it isn't totally rusted out. Either way if it is I'd make some good cash parting it out! lol.

interesting     a pressure washer would sure help. looks like a lot of metal work needed.  if it will run might be worth a shot  but if i were you i`d take a real hard look under the cab   .the old diamond t in the back ground is that up for grabs to?

i thought it was an diamond-t lol I can ask for you... But yeah Not horrible on metal work. I looked up online it said this model came with a Cummins 230

Found this truck online, a friend arguably says only around 20 left in existence... I think otherwise from all the pictures I've seen online.

what's still available for this truck, I think it's a small cam Cummins 250 or a 290 Ran when parked it shows... clear title, Ohio

There is visible Some rust and holes nothing new to me... looks like low miles Not sure if it runs now or not... been looking for a single axle sleeper cabover for 2-3 years now in Michigan. 

Say's in the Ad. "I have been told is essentially a Mack with a Brockway body. It is a complete truck as far as I can tell" 

Just seeing if it's worth Buying and Restoring to Running/Driving Condition. He was asking $1400 

 

Kyle, most 18 year olds can't drive a stick shift let alone any kind of truck! I imagine many of your friend wonder why you are interested In that old multicolored truck!! Don't waste your breath, they wouldn't understand! Leave them to their Honda Civics with the big chrome mufflers😁 welcome to the site you'll like it here!

Thanks, Sorry for the late reply. Haven't been on. Yeah no right?!? I grew up on our 110 Acre Blueberry farm so Learning Clutch was kinda made too be.

I think we're going to have to take up a collection for a new camera or fuel for his truck.  Either his camera is broke or he can't afford fuel for his truck.   Where are you Odog?

Would be cool to see your collection Dan!. I got the IH running

Welcome Kyle. Nice Coe you have there. Just take it easy on every aspect of working your truck and shifting is slow and easy. Have fun with it.

Thanks! I have still have it, been looking at an 2nd option if I get stuck and have too sell it for something "Common"

Found this on that website and that's all I know about it. would be cool to own one but I heard from some where very few H67's were made..  

Hey everyone, I'm new here I posted another post on the Members Introduction if you want to check it out, anyhow I own this 55 RC180 and from doing the research I did they are quite a different species unlike the Popular Ford F6s and Chevy COEs, mines missing a few parts, like the Mirrors, Front Badge and Main Fuel tank. Let me know if you know anyone who has parts. Thanks

Welcome!! Great looking project. Twin sticks aren't bad you can puck it up fairly quick when you need to. THey are neat for shifting gears backing up.  Paul

Yeah I know there not bad, it's the chore leaning how to drive one, Because one thing I know is that you got to be faster than a slice of cheese to drive one.

Welcome! Good to see young people interested in old trucks. Neat old IH you have there.

Rather partial to single axles myself...

F model? I know quite more history About these old trucks than the ordinary teenage like myself..

Welcome to BMT! I am a fellow Michigander and Mack enthusiast. I happen to know where a clean complete B model is, but it's a tandem tractor.

Interesting project!  Hope the roads in your neighborhood are smooth.

Thanks I hope so too!

Hi there everyone, I'm Kyle I'm 18 and from Michigan. I've been joining a lot of truck forums so if you see me somewhere else its most likely me..  Anyhow I don't own a Mack sadly  but I do have a 1955 International RC180 Tractor Hauler Its rough though but at least complete... I hope to get it running and maybe then try to find a Mack I can enjoy as well... maybe a B20 or B42?.

Here's are few photos of my international when I bought it, my plans are to keep transmission stock and adapt a Detroit Diesel to it, only if I can make it fit.

was searching online for some parts and stumbled across this. http://www.oldride.com/classic_trucks/378499.html
