    Does anyone out know of a body shop that has replaced the roof panal on a R-model.I am located in the Phila PA area.I would like to have someone that has done it before to do it.I will be checking with my dealer.Also does anyone know the where about of a new cab for a r-model.My truck does not need a whole cab but if it was cheap enough I would replace it all.The truck has only 70,000 miles on it,we brought 20 of them new in 1979.This is the last tractor we have left.I like to use it to pull my antique caterpillar tractors and my B-87 around to shows.Thanks Mike Durkin

    Has anyone out there in Mack land ever cut off the rain gutter around the cab roof on a r odel? I was thinking of cutting mine off,so the water doesn't cause rust.My truck is a 1979 with only 70,000 miles on it.We brought a total of 45 macks that year and only have that one and one other that we converted into a box truck. The box truck is for sale.Thanks for any comments.

    That a nice looking R model with those low mileage.I have 6 1979 R models with all but one with having less than 100,000 miles.The one has around 50,000 miles on it.

    When I was buying my new CL700 with the 500hp v8 back in 1999 the dealer told me of these motor being mounted in fishing boat,that were putting out 1000hp.They got these hp from having a unlimited source of water to cool the motor.Mike Durkin

    I have one of those E9 V8's in my cl700.We use it to pull our lowboy trailor,we have had as much as 100 ton on it.Handled it very well.I was told that it was one of the last v8 500hp that mack built.Other than the black smoke it pours out the stack it great.We have it turned up to about 550hp maybe more.
