Trying to make up my mind whether to leave the homemade grille screen on or hunting up a pair of shutters. Gonna try and straighten the hood best I can,hopefully I can pop the dents out of the cab,get all the emblems on it and a stack,then probably call it good. Might paint fenders black. 

A friend of mine needs the left front corner and grille pieces for a single round headlight MH. Any leads appreciated.

1985

I have a few NOS old style tall ear Bulldogs, 2 have very slight flaws,some different bases available to. Also have some new style ones and a wide selection of used ones.Message me for more info.

That was a steal.

Yes,I'm in SE Iowa. 

Its mine. It was one of 12 built for UPS for mountain use.

Only thing that would scare me is that damn lime box,if it was a spreader very long the frame,rears,brake components,etc.are gonna have major corrosion. I'd still buy it,but I'd offer 1200 or so,maybe less, I don't know where you are but scrap is in the toilet here. My scrap buyer is paying 50/ton,but is advising everyone to hold off .

With that engine it would be a R615

Oh,I guess I didn't see where he was from,yeah I'm not going thru that hassle. 

I've got one out in the weeds,probably needs boiled out,but it was good when taken out,I'd let it go for scrap value. 

Also I've found Cascade dishwasher soap works really well for flushing.

Before you put the valve covers back on take a 2x4 and a hammer,turn the covers upside  down and give them a rap or 2 at the bolt holes, they have a tendency to get sucked down from tightening and don't seal the best. I've only ever seen rubber gaskets for these. 

Had a damn coon eat through the shift boot in one of my trucks over the winter and it shredded the door panels and back panel. Looking for a decent replacement, preferably blue,but will settle for anything as long as it matches.

There's plenty of B model cabs and sheet metal around,you dont have to knock one in the head to do what you want.

Thanks. Do you know which Mack models had them?

 As far as I've seen,it was just a small group of Western F models, FS758LST I believe was the exact model.

Do you happen to still have that blue mack? Are you selling parts off it? 

Yes still have it,not parting it out.

I am with Maddog on the covers on the door hinges. Have read that they were stopped in the late 50's or 60's Maybe it was an on and off thing. Now it is listed as a 1960. Would think you would know the year when listing it. My books show 113 B 77 s  made. Did all have with the Cummings Iron Lung engine ?  Seems that this engine with the Roots blower would be before the turbo charged engines.  I am sure someone here knows.the when the engine was produced. Wish the truck was closer. Would go $5,500 with the original engine

He made a correction in the original listing stating it was a 1960,and yes all  the B77's had the supercharged Cummins. There was also a B773,they had the 335 Cummins.

It is and I have been looking closely at all of the early B's and F's that used the same style side panels. There appears to be many different styles and I assume it may have to do with the engine that is installed. This BM was ordered from the factory with the larger cube engine that was the standard in the BX so I am thinking there must have been a difference??

That could be.

I do but this hood doesn't have space for the emblem? Note the distance between the louvers and the hinge.

That's odd.
