  1. This one must have had a tilt bed on it. Has a Pto with levers coming in through the floor. Of course the pics don’t want to show.
  2. Hard to say. It looks like it was mounted that way. Wrote to the Mack museum to see what the serial number could show me.
  3. Will have to look for the number on the frame…
  4. Had to crawl through the passenger door. Anyone want to take a stab at this serial number?
  5. That is my hope....Have heard that in original form 60 may have been tops. The 3.91's will certainly lower the revs down.
  6. On the plus side, they just dropped my truck off at my house. Wife wondered where that came from? 🤣
  7. Lucky for me, I do know how to weld and fabricate. My Dad was a pipefitter, so learned a lot at a young age.
  8. I know you had pictures at one time of what you cut from the cab, but they no longer show up. Do you by chance still have those pics?
  9. Being I have the frame from the CH, I think I can add that to the original to extend it a bit. That way I could keep the rear suspension on its original frame, and get a good section to extend it. Up until I was thinking of the sleeper, I originally thought of going with a 156” wheelbase. Now perhaps I would go closer to 180” to add a 36” sleeper?
  10. Alright, crazy thought, but been thinking about putting a sleeper on the B….do you feel it would look out of place on a single rear truck? We will most likely always have a dog that rides with us (wife and I), and the current one is darn tall, and could use the bunk as a bed. Thoughts?
  11. Thanks! I don't know why I didn't think of that!
  12. If I wanted to run air ride in the front of this when it is all together, anyone give me hints on how to do it?
  13. Once it shows up here, then we will know for sure what engine is in it. The fella I bought it from has never even tried to turn it over.
  14. Yea, not sure why there is a limit on the likes. Could anyone tell me if my high rear end will work with the original setup?
  15. Thought folks would like to know, that the frame rails on the CH are 34”apart. My B is suppose to show up next week I think is 33.5, so they may work ok.
  16. Awesome! Can’t like anything more today, but will tomorrow.
  17. I know they are apples and oranges in comparison, but to a small extent, I am guessing they act slightly similar…of course these are 50+ years apart, and I don’t have any experience with the older diesels except in tractors, which is again a different animal.
