'81 F on Ebay
seyser replied to Superdog's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Looks like its had a fair amount of touchup done on it. You can see the over spray on the tires. Still very nice old truck. I would like to see the engine. -
Great read! Thanks for posting.

Great pics! Thanks for sharing.

I'll tease you guys a little! My B was ordered with the 55gal aluminum tanks on both sides. I believe its more rare to have the 55gal on the driver side. As that side was able to fit the larger if wanted and most probably did. The pass side usually had the smaller as the exhaust would be in the way for the larger.

What a great looking rig. I am not familiar with those models, What would that have for an engine? -Jeremy

So I was watching youtube videos and somehow ended up viewing a few with Detroit diesels. I was reading through some of the posted comments under each video and found one that was rather funny here is what it read: "An old driver once told me, that the 2 stroke Detroit was written about in the Bible. That one day, there would come a great beast. That would roar like thunder, belch fire and smoke, and crawl across the face of the earth" I had a good laugh when I read this. -Jeremy

Latest pickup

Trailer is looking good! -
They are great bikes indeed! I have an 01 Bonneville and an 06 Scrambler. Triumph did a great just with the retro styling most people cannot tell them from the 60's models. -Jeremy

Interested in learning more about Classic Macks
seyser replied to mjmck's topic in Introduction Forum
Welcome to the forum! You have come to the right place for Mack knowledge. -
Found this on craigslist: https://fortdodge.craigslist.org/hvo/5494396675.html

Congrats on your new purchase. They are fun old trucks.

Start with the fuel filter.

Looks like a nice truck. Welcome to the Mack family.

An Old B got som new tires
seyser replied to The Fireman's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
New tires look great! -
Looking for one stainless Mack bubble mirror in good condition before I buy new. Thanks -Jeremy

Like you already know, avoid lugging the engine. I think headgasket problems plagued the earlier 711's more than the later models.

Painted the 5th wheel
seyser replied to eddeere's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That turned out great! -
B tow hooks.
seyser replied to Hobert62's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Is your truck a light weight model? I ask because you mention the bumper in the 2nd pic is aluminum and it does look original. I have only seen tow hooks on the extended style bumpers. -Jeremy -

Looks like it could have been much worse.

Your Thoughts?
seyser replied to razorback11's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I am a purist for the most part but I like what you are doing. I would say your work looks top notch from what I can see. I really like the details on the engine, looks great. Keep up the good work! -
I have looked at the Eastwood units before, Might be another option.

There were about a dozen extra holes in the radiator guard that I had to weld up. I have everything all bagged up ready for coating. I still haven't decided if I want to have them painted or powder coated. I plan to get quotes on both and then decide. I will be ordering new stainless acorn nuts and bubble mirrors soon, debating on ones with the MACK script or just plain to save a few bucks.

Here is a little of my latest progress on the B rejuvenation. This past weekend I pulled the mirrors and radiator guard off my truck to refinish. The brackets were pretty rusty and pitted especially the driver side. I used my sandblast cabinet and also a wire wheel to clean them off.
