I purchased this 79 R model about 5 years ago to use on our small farm. I had planned to find a hopper at the time but unfortunately that never happened and the truck was tucked away in the shed. Fast forward 5 years later and I finally purchased a trailer. I pulled the Mack out last night and hooked it up in the yard to see what it would look like. This simple setup should be a nice asset to our farm. The Mack needs a few things including a brake relay, fluid changes, and probably update the front steers to tubless 22.5's. Anyways here are a couple pics:

Mack R seat cushions?

Thanks for posting. I looked on his profile and it looks like he hasn’t visited since late 2023. -
Mack R seat cushions?
seyser replied to seyser's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I have been browsing ebay but no luck yet. I'm not very active on facebook but will have to see if I can get on there and track something down. -
The driver seat bottom in my 79 R has seen better days. It looks like the seat is a Bostrom Level Air. Was wondering if anyone would have recommendations on a replacement cushion/foam? I would like to keep it pretty original looking if possible. The seat back and pass seat are all excellent as its an original low mile truck. I know most people will recommend an upholstery shop but just looking for any replacements if possible. Thanks -Jeremy

Looks great!

Keep up the good work!

Seems like a pretty fair price for a V8 Mack.

Bidding closed. $11,250.00 high bid.

Ah yes, that makes sense. I was always curious why the different setups. Didn’t event think about the cab being hinged and constantly moving.

They must have used different setups over the years. My 79 R has flat metal plates on the cab side and round rubber hockey pucks on the hood side.

Good work -
I suspect the block heater plug was dealer installed on most if not all trucks and was placed in the location at the discretion of the dealer.

Pretty ironic to run across this post. I also just stumbled upon his channel a few days ago. The R video caught my attention.

Time to fix up the R600

Yes those look like the correct part numbers. I haven’t checked with Mack on price or availability. Probably not willing to pay retail for a new one anyways as I have to imagine there are plenty used out there. Just have to seek one out!

Here is what the one looks like in my 79.

Yea the B ones are unique to the B models. Here is what I’m looking for.

Still looking for one of these.

Nice looking truck! I’d put some flaps on it right away to keep the rockers from getting all rock chipped.
-
I would be interested in some decals. Aircleaner, dash, battery box. Please post some pics and prices when you have them made up. -Jeremy

Yes those are original tanks. -
I see some very big buckets in the background. I’d say this ole girl has hauled some heavy hoe’s.
