NJ TRUCK

We sure like to see old Mack's still working, as does Mr DOT officer. I would be concerned around the check points with this tractor.

TJ, don't tell us what year. I guess 1981. Let the guys guess. 

Nice truck.

Will Keg's Mack 250hp / Mack 5 speed retro fit into a B Model? If so, someone on the BMT Forum may be able to make a deal. Then I would put an E-6 350 / Fuller RR 9 speed combo into the R Model.  Pending the budget of course. I drove that set up running local NJ/PA in the early 2000's and it worked well.

Nice looking, original R Model, getting harder to find everyday.  Whats the plan?  Work with it as is, restore, keep it in storage? 

Being a tandem tractor, and having to pull heavier loads, I would prefer a 9 speed over the 5. 

This is cool to see an old Mack still working. I have been thinking along the same lines for a similar application.  Would there be any issues running the older truck like this. One thing that comes to mind would be emission testing here in NJ. Would a properly running end673 pass NJ emissions? Thanks for reading.
