  1. theres not much Mack left in that one is there? headlights are gone, grille is gone, roof is gone, I dont know what that is now.

    Headlights are still original, just covered with some "protection", roof is in its place as I was told.

    Although the powertrain is Cummins NTC probably 290, eaton/fuller 10 speeds(?), eaton axles with some strange four separate spring suspension.

    It lost 4 rear inside wheels, or more correctly found 2 front and four rear nearly original 22.5's in place of 20's.

    The compressor is broke down and the guy need money although the price is at least two times out of the range and far from to be fair.

  2. Bought this for parts in this past December.

    He hit Freightliner in the front being sleep, luckie just aside of the front, broke out front axle, tank, fender, cab, sleeper and ended up meeting the trailer's corner by its roof. Then layed it on the side. Everybody inside were Ok. Told me with pride "I stopped him with full gravel trailer". My answer was just a light smile.

  3. Yea, I remember, you told me before. Can't figure out though if he started to make it up or applied some art work on it.

    Found pics of St-Germain model trucks in the net. Oh, Ryan ruled to post fleet pics on Fridays only.

    Se we need to wait. Although my Friday starts in half a day earlier than at the most of you folks.

  4. What the Bullsh*t!!

    Just couldn't imagine to hear something like that in the States.

    I remember the posts about restrictions of having commercial vehicles on a private property and it looked like a limitation of the rights to that property to use i.e. own. Really sad, too sorry to learn such the things guys.

  5. Larry, too hope you may own old vehicles with reasonable modifications with not much bullshit by the way.

    We here getting more and more hard lows and limitations although it widely compensates by low level of control fasilitie's technical knowledge. Especially for old foriegn-built vehicles.

  6. I received a quote from Paul's Chrome Plating in Evans City, PA. This business was recommended by the Mack Museum. Anyway...quote is $400-$500 per section for rechroming. WOW!

    So I am still looking for NOS upper left and upper right (6MF630M and 6MF631M) sections. Or if you have used that look new, let me know. Until then I will keep the original (?) cracked and faded grille. Maybe I could paint the grille black, light blue, dark blue, or ?????

    Don't paint it!!

    Much better keep it as is.

  7. I couldn't get the link to work (surprise) but there is some nut listing an "EXTREMELY RARE" Mack ashtray on the local Craigslist for $300.00 FIRM!.....................................Mark

    That thing may work as a good reason to stop smoking for that price.

    Smokers shouldn't worry though, there was alot of more reasonable offers a week back at least.
