Just have never seen right steering Macks although have never been to England. I need GB visa that requires many papers from me including some of I have not.

It isn't really matter to use 2 of 6V or 1 of 12V. At the moment I easily start my R with 673 E6-350 with only one 12V battery and also start from time to time the army truck with 707 gasser with only one 12V car capacity battery. During a summer. Although it's better to have a pair of 12V parallel truck size boxes. Vlad

I don't use programs. I like to exersize the life. Language is an important part of the culture. I like to use it myself. Thank you Brocky. Don't know where is Olive (really don't know) but Uncle Rob is probably too busy not answering e-mail. Vlad

Oh hell !I red something about cement mixer but had no thoughts of this idea. Now I can say it's the noteworthiest mixer. Tom, you must be too proud of having this red'n black god damned machine !

Oh - it's with a upgrate Cummins, I can sleep easy now. Like L cab B's too much! Although everything else with L model cab.

Thank you for your pair of cents. Modelling is not too popular on BMT, it's like a small "club in the club". I know AMT R is good detailed and far true than Italery RW. Although I want to keep myself on 1:24. There are some BMW cars on my shelf and Monogramm AC Bulldog started. So I don't want to mix. At least yet. Combining 1:24 with !:25 isn't too carefull way, sometimes it could give a strange look. I also made springs but of cooper sheet but with a big deal of labour having no laser or disc saw. They're perfect, were made for AC but a front pair at the moment only. Will post them if interesting. I may note, I'm attacing with a wide front. Having one more project of L model rear bogie that is actually army NR but close to be similar. I contacted professional maquette firm and put an order. For a bogie as a beginning. They're asking money of course and work now extremely slow. It's Russia. Everything they do is 3D drowing with next frezering from plastic. And resin copieing of course. The product seems to me impressive but too long in a time. By the word - if you're from UK, are there any left hand drive F's?

Nice! And the last comment also

I'm also in order for grammatic lessons About the U it's very well looking machine. Vlad

Very nice collection of rusty treasures! Thanks a lot for posting.

Nice trucks.

Thanks, sent you e-mail.

At least you need 12V starter. Vlad

Your Bel Air is billion times better than this grey Focus

Disassemble to a plastic body, contact people who casting bronze statuetten and order a pair of copies. Then polish them and halvanize chrom. Too expensive probably but would be best of all

I asked the guy for R grill, he answered first, than missed in action. Vlad

I like KW emblem betveen the legs Fall sceneries are neat. But I suppose it's somewhere to the north from Texas?

It would be courious to bring her home. And money for nothing

Wow, good idea!Vinny, it's time to start thinking about professional shop in the future

I'm thinking close to Mark's position. If you want to have B Mack it's a good chance. Of course you'll need to spend a time for travel because it's the only way to look it well. For this money it would be shure out of perfection so not a great matter of a real condition. But it's not only money issue - you need to go and look, transport it, keep in somewhere. I'm not thinking also that the engine is so hard problem. If you want to buy for cheap you'll need to rebuilt engine anyway to run a truck well. But you need to understand that when you'll start to work on it, a value of repairs and parts will be in many times much then today truck's price. Are you ready to make up this deal? Although if you have a bit of time and bucks to try - why not? At least you'll have no reason to sorry about missed chance. Vlad

Yes Leon, more, I thought about your Superliner just today thinking around a sleeper. My plan is to make it apart with another one to built a good one. Although I have 3 at the moment. But the color is wrong, it would come good for "Ineke"

I just blast myself of laughing :twothumbsup: Although remember - the first Mack was bus !!!

Jack Jansen has 711 in his red'n yellow DM. He probably must have parts list.

When I was buying my R there was a pair of rear axles with. They were stayed for a while at the place the truck was parked. After the day I got the truck I thought to myself to bring home these axles and some other spares by Mack. It would be nice to make a trip for some hundreds km with Mack, I thought. Some time later we took off a 5th wheel and built wooden flat bed for temporary use. Last Sunday I got my way up. A couple of days before I have got a contact to the man who had one more the same truck as I have a pair now. He took it into metal recycling due to a cranckshaft issue. He said me he had nothing of it at the moment but a sleeper. I came to interest and we have discussed the price. That way I removed my point of destination for plus 100 km - 700 in all. Kept the sleeper, went 100 back and than kept the axles. Stayed for a night at my Mack's previous owner talking truck stories and went back home crossing a clouse fog most the way. Not too dramatic in all though this was my first long way run with a truck. Here's a set of shots from rainy Russian roads.

It was looked so.

Sorry Mike about happened.
