It has a Scania model DS8 (Mack designation E4-210). Great engine, like most, when properly maintained. The Scania centrifugal filter certainly kept the oil clean. No cartridge to buy, just clean it out and reinstall. It prompted us to create "Centrimax" for the Mack engines.

Morgan Millwork ran a huge fleet of R487P straight trucks on the east coast. They loved them.

Any information on the trans?

Just brought home a 81 R487P. It has a Scania motor with an auto. Anybody have any info? Good? Bad?

Looks great!!!

I'm in Cortland, not too far from you. Don't get down that way much anymore since Wagner's burnt down.

This truck has been for sale for over a year, they just recently moved it away from the road. I thought maybe it had finally sold but guess not

Looks great!

Where did you get the bumper? I ordered an aftermarket 1 a few years back and had to send it back. The fit was awful. Yours looks great

Middle row on my 02 CX is the Jake. Top row right is my fog lights

Our trucks are inside every night. Doesnt matter what the weather is. Shop usually stays around 50 for the winter months.

Is the log truck Munro Trucking? Looks like u were in my neck of the woods.

Nice! You gonna be hauling bark/mulch?

107 on 6 axles and 117 on 7 axles. Most guys that run 117 have 4 axle trailers, but there are a few that have 4 axle tractors with tri axle trailers.

107,000 on 3 axles. 117,000 on 4 axles

Sorry for your loss

Nice pics. 1911 on your side?

Nice! Love the colors. Make sure to post pics after the bunks and loader are on

I've had 2 hours sleep in the last 24. The plan above was so successful that I'm going to see if I can perfect it today.

This seems to happen daily around here. Makes for a long night of driving

Here's a teaser picture. On the way back home the single axle U model was on the side of the Turnpike with a blown left steer tire and the green b81 dump was tooling in the slow lane. Awesome show.

Let me know on any progress, I don't mind driving back out there

It is 3B, he will be there tomorrow too
