Looks like a worker indeed but that one is a pretty nice restored rig. Thank you for sharing.

So, does anyone know how to model 1/25 trucks?
Vladislav replied to Keffer inc's topic in Odds and Ends
If you want to build a really good model you have to do a total scratch built. With so many options in the hobby market you're still not able to assemble a correct model. You need a frame of the kind like Superliner RW truck has (in general). But if try to use a frame off Italery Superliner you will get a frame of Freightliner or some other truck style. The same about rears and so on. So if you're not going to build up your project starting from a zero level (as I do with not much luck) you just need to buy a 1:25 kit of a different truck wich would be close to what you want about a wb and an engine/tranny and combine it to the stuff you have. -
53 L Model front wheel spindle nut torque?
Vladislav replied to rollintall62's topic in Driveline and Suspension
If you follow the link posted above all I wrote there was straight related to your front axle bearings. As for grease you can use any newer bearing grease since it's just much more thermo resistant. I mean any newer, a cheapest modern grease will work better than a stuff people put in those bearings 70 years back. Vlad -
B 61 front wheel bearings
Vladislav replied to eddeere's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
No, the book was for Mack NR 6x4. I'm pretty shure it's a stock front axle used in a LF or BX Mack. -
Have you posted it specially for me? The language seems common. I just didn't mention anything wrong first seeing it. I never thought but you can never see any add in English in local papers overhere. Wonder why...

If I remember correctly there was the assembly plant in Schotland that butlt RHD F-models. Some one from GB posted this pic on here, he must know much better about it.

Restorable Macks
Vladislav replied to Farmdog's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That's pretty interesting. You can find the info you need in the Wiki section of this site. For a way to offer them for sale you may start from posting in the "trucks for sale" on here. Maybe not the most efficient place to get rid of them but shure the perfect one to find good homes. Vlad -
Cool pics of the Hellertown neighbourhood. Just about a couple days back I though how Casey (S) is looking now. I saw him two years back and he have grown up. Nice to see he's doing fine. And I also have a shot of that firetruck above that came into my 'puter by some strange way. Viruses?...

Good luck, keep it up!

That's nice. I opened the pic to erlarge but couldn't recognize which the cows were real and wich were not. Usually we aren't keeping a thought that some one have spent time and labour to get a bit of smile on our faces.

Interesting old picture! And with those spockets driver probably couldn't get home with the truck for a lunch.

Good luck on the project and we all here like pictures Vlad

Mack LJT
Vladislav replied to jessecam's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Pretty solid truck wich shure need a lot of work if you want a show look. With the original gasser, a rare stuff nowaday. You can find the engine # putting a wire brush on the arrow marked area. 510 and 707 look about the same so check out the #. Vlad

There's good acceleration on the Jag

They're probably Renault or Volvo parts. You can try interweb search for any European Renault parts trader and show them pics of the stuff together with the VIN. Not shure they will be too likely to dig out an old truck parts lists and than provide send owerseas. But that might be a way if no others. I use to do such deals on the constant basis although it takes time and a lot of attention. Vlad

Happy Birthday!

Tim, you know it for shure

Mike, did that retread tire loose its skin under a hard load or speed? Doesn't look like a nice moment though.

RS paint and restore under way
Vladislav replied to ranchhopper's topic in Exterior, Cab, Accessories and Detailing
Looks very nice so far. Hope to see the hood finished and installed soon. -
Cool sculptures, probably neat place to spend some time at. I know you American guys are proud of your country built stuff but my favorite is Jag. What is the speed limit in those empty highways you could have done so good day milage? Vlad

Beautiful area to look over You are the lucky man Very usable collection of the yard toys, seems like the neighbours aren't far from you about that way. What are the animals on the top of the mountain in the 4th pic of the first bunch?
