Neat trucks, wouldn't want to look for windshields and rubber though...

Great pic

I didn't read it all, but the Illegals pob. have free room/board and all kinds of other benefits after this...

So, are the people who are dumping their Macks exporting them back to the US? 

763's were made "65-"74

Low end torque makes it happen in a 237.

The fun it would be with that combo, and the fuel turned up a bit...

I'm glad most of you enjoy this truck.

Well executed job on this one. Only mistake was keeping the gas engine IMO. If that had a 237/5spd it would be perfect...

50 bucks a piece is fair and up. They are not that uncommon

 

You know where I can buy some for that?

What would NOS hood half dogs be worth for a B?

Wonder how differently the two 170HP engines pulled?

NICE, love those...

Come and take them...

Sharp looking dog!

I'd clean that truck up, do some preservation work and drive it for now. 

Guy said 140- per hour, will take no more than two hours depending how much paint is on it. 

Anybody ever have it done? Local company near me does high end "50s/"60s Vettes a lot. Gonna have my R600 hood done, seems a lot easier then trying to sand or chemical strip it.

I say buy another R model so you can have one with budds and one with daytons. Maybe get two B models as well so you cover all your bases.

I'm good with one B and one R...

Looks great, just needs a coating of boiled linseed oil now...

Anybody have pics of detailed/pin stripped Daytons???

budd hubs

 

Needs to be the same axle I assume, year matter?

What would I need to put budds on the front of my "75 R686? Die hard spoke guy on Macks, but have been liking the looks of some old school R's with aluminum on the front...

Gonna change the fuel filters also.

Gonna get her cranked up this week, been sitting since 2012.
