I like the side of the hood lucky dog. That's it is lucky that it got into good hands and will roll down blacktop again.
I plan on putting Lucky Dog back on the old girl when she gets a make over.

One pic has red seats, the other grey?
The red Mack Magnum seat was in an R model in the weeds that my brother just happened to open the door on and seeing as how were Magnum nuts we bought it as well.

Where did you find that? I noticed the Heenan door on it
Mr Heenan himself. My Dad actually found it on parts hunt (for Thunderdog) to his place.

looked like another next to it,why didn't you get them both?
I'm still in the works on the other one. Its a 79 and its really really rough. I'm looking at it for parts for my other superliner I'm putting together.

It does need some TLC but it is in very good shape. The hood is ruined from the wreck but the cab is like new and it has 2 new frame rails under it. What I paid for it I'm more than happy.
Thanks, Josh

I just bought this 85 Superliner last saturday. It was born with an E9 450 V8 with a 2090 9 spd tranny and 38 rears on neway suspension. The truck was wrecked on one of its first trips out after being all redone about 4 years ago. the driver had a heart attack and jumped out of the truck and is now paralyzed. The guy who i bought it from said the V8 was gone long before he bought and ran it but luckily I have an extra E9 500 to put in it. I do need to find a dual stack 36 or 42 inch bunk for it though. It had one new but the guy said he sold it when his driver wrecked it. The vin is RW613 001044. I'll post some more pictures after I get it home. I also bought a Mack Magnum seat from him that he had in an old relic of an R model.
Thanks, Josh

Thanks for the pictures I thought that was the one you were talking about. I've never seen it in person but From the pictures I have seen it looks awesome. Joe English is the one that owns it right?
Thanks, Josh

Do you have any pictures of the ones you redid? I'm always happy to see Magnums all redone.
Thanks, Josh

The interior color is right all magnums came with red interior if it had a sleeper the headliners were white on magnum models only. The seats are correct and have the magnum logo in the seats. Yea truck paper always list Mack's with wrong info I've seen ch listed as r model and so forth. I have done two complete ground up restorations on magnums both were 1985 models . I'll have to post pics of the sometime both are show winners . I have a guy wanting me to do a rw liberty edition restoration think I'm going to pass on that one she is rough
All Magnums had red headliners. The only the sleepers themsevles had white headliners originally. The truck on truckpaper is an original Magnum and was originally built with an E9400 engine, 2090 9Spd tranny, camle back suspension, and a double frame.

Look at the seats and I have a Magnum vin number list with all the specs of each one.

It is a RW613. I've found most people on truck paper don't list things right.

Here's the link hopefully; http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=5629949 I just found this Superliner Magnum dump truck on truckpaper. The original E9400 V8 is gone. It now has an E6350 4V now. It's in Texas. Thanks, Josh

That's Leeches Magnum. My dad used to see that truck when it was new coming out of the Medusa cement plant pulling a cement tanker. You'll never find a nicer original Magnum in the whole world . I really wish I could buy it .
Thanks, Josh

My Dad talk to some one at Watts about a year ago and they said there were still a few in the parts system.

Put in Pai thermostats. We've had this problem on several V8's and the problem was Mack Thermostats. The Mack ones would test right when tested but we found that the water pump was pushing them open because they have to weak of springs in them. I could physically open the mack ones by hand but not the Pai ones. After we put the Pai ones in the the temp went from 110 degrees to 180. The last one we did this to was JR Collins" 86 Superliner road truck when we put the new cab on last winter and he said it's been fine ever since.
Many thanks, Josh

I was given a sliding back window for a R model. The problem is took it apart to clean it and of coures i found all the window channels were shot so Ithrew them away and now I cant find the right window channels for it. I have looked high and low to find them but I cant find any thing that will work. Has any one else had this problem?
Many thanks, Josh

Thanks for the update on the visor. I was at Gearhart's and I cannot believe after hours in the Superliner row I never looked at the visors!
too much other eye candy on them I guess.
mackdaddy,
The sun visor on your 83 is a factory one. Mack put both on up until 1987. After 87 they stuck with just the lund sun visor. All of the Mack Magnum Superliners built had the same visor as yours with different mounting brackets that came out in 1985 with the Superliner 2.
