No troubles Mike, I don't have a momma to worry she might learn too much. The truck was offered for about $5500 and was for sale during two weeks before I checked the site out. It was too reasonable in relation to Visions or Freightliners/Internationals wich are common here and cost $25-30K being 1997-2002. If you remember white MH with the IH top on the cab it was also not running. The man asked 14K and after some talks stepped out to 11. After I came close to the green one and made the offer of 4700 the seller said Ok. I had to spend extra 1500 for 800km towing though.

Ray, Thank you, but I probably need some additional facts. I made a quick look over today. The linkage was probably destroyed with a half-secessful fixing it up. The semi-spere with the pin wich is on the cab might be fitted into the lower (chassis) part on my mind. It comes in but doesn't lock there. I just not shure how it should be correct to work. From the pics you posted I can see those two semi-spheres can couples and gets off when a cab is almost up. If so what the way the lever in the cab is carried? Mine is just hangs in the rubber boot. And it seemed to me that the airbags to support the cab are almost gone. Still trying to figure out what it was layed on...

Ken, I got myself under the fender today and it looked like there were quad's. I supposed it should be that though. Single round lights look unusual on my mind and I like them by some special way. So resolved to fit on the truck the kind I can find sooner.

Cool

I also like them, they reminds me the places I visited this past summer. Could anybody tell me what all they mean? Thank you, Leon, haven't heared a long from you. It's shure a good idea, although there might be some troubles about riding EU motorways. I slowly think on that matter, too hope to do it one day.

Now I'm im the list. Three low parts of a grill and head light assemblies. No matter round ones or rectangular's, haven't realized what I'd like better to have.

V8 DD in a U-model?

I see you found perfect coal remover Ryan. Sand blasted turbo core also looks fresh

The head lights is the ugliest thing in this rig. There probably was some accident and they fabricated the light panels of plywood with the most locally commonly used bulbs. So my list includes head light buckets. Maybe her brother ? (or sister?)

Thank you for the input although looks like I need to work over the Mack stuff, not Fuller. The linkage is an Ultraliner feature, I think it's the same for any or most gearboxes in it.

No, I'm not. Although I found the lettering on the side bracket, there's written Neway. You can see it above the lever bolt.

Slowly crowling along my Lanova. Not in the museum though.

I found that beast on Auto.ru i.e. locally. It was rated cheap, had no batteries, stuck threadle brake valve and flat front tyre. Located in Saint-Petersburg (in Russia, not the US), I made 700 km trip from Moscow to. The seller made me too valuable discount and I was too glad to have it. Being looking for the transportation I resolved to use a towing company. Expensive but fast and trouble-free. Have got her near the house today. E6-350, Eaton-Fuller 9 speed, new design (?) Neway-Airride and 24.5 on the spokes all around. 1991, made in Pensilvania. Now I'm on the looking for-list, the first point is two or three lower parts of the grill. Also there's a hot question - any pictures or schemas of the gear shifting linkage. It's broken under the cab near the lower end of the lever and I can't figure out how it should be like. The low range air lines were also broken right near the lever knob, any info is too appreciated. Vlad

Nice little dog. Be happy with him!

Glad to see her saved. What a B-53 is? I mean in relation to B-61.

Cool! Who made the first one?

Cool video and trucks look great! Shure being proud of how the unit you drive look nice helps a lot in your hard work. It worth enjoying weekends on my mind.

I'm too afraid not. When you talk about side gears do you mean an upper (bewel) gear set? If yes you need to set the position of the gears to each other to get a correct contact area, also you have to set the bearings pre-load. A lot of work, I'm going to get over it one day but I have no chances to find ready rears of the kind I need. Much more easier to swat just diffs. You need to get them out for rebuilt anyway.

I also had to do some drilling to line up the holes for the rivets. That all was the story though...

Congrats on the work done Looks great and it might pay back some extra invested labour as an advertisement thing. Shure everybody must be proud putting such a nice piece of work to customer's hands.

I bet for a ton.

Pretty cool lot of pics this time. Two sheeps had blue balls. No, two sheep had no balls, I remembered the correct grammatic. Too surprized seeing so much snow in your area, we already have it gone for a couple of weeks with about 60F now. Neat collection of the truck shots, I also noted the city of Winfall stayed good. And too hope the cabbage plantation will keep fine. Don't forget to let us know how they will being in the future.

Glad to see her running and take my hat off of the way she was fixed.

The Lovemachine truck was custom built here in Moscow. The guy painted and printed the decals for and made a lot of detailing. He showed out here once, asked for advice over the gear box. And MH was also done here by the other chap. Hi used AIM cab, filed and filled it hard though. Than built the double steer 4 axle Aussie chassis. He also looked an advice here but for that chassis. With no luck if the memory served me good.
