  7. Facebook page Bakken oilfield fail of the day has a pletty of torn up rigs etc..real, not just turbo
  8. 2 miles home from a quick stop at tavern/bottle shop, mrs. says: your turbo has got a new wine that just started. you loose your air filter? I KNOW, I'M JUST HEARING IT...!! i think your turbo just shelled out. I KNOW, I'LL STOP UP HERE AND CHECK IT OUT..!! Dammit, she's either got to stay outta the shop or stay in it... damn oil roads, can't keep your tooth in nohow... any one happen to see a banks air filter missing a truck
  9. an i think i'm short on time to make a 300 mi, trip to pick up a truck on good roads, ha!
  10. Know chis walker from cabridge? My wifes uncle, we`ll be seeing him over holidays, her parents are in mckean, im big into the e`s myself, like your projects, for me maybe 5.9 or detroit 466 on mack 6x6 chasis, if could find one narrow enough
  11. Any one in their travels comes across one or knows some one that would shake loose with one, would be appreciated. I am in minnesoto, nice addition to a small time log cabin company.
  12. Was any one able to contact him. Been trying with no success. Want an e with luvered hood eh,eht, the elusive etx, mainly good body, have access to complete chasis. But body shot
  13. Anybody find out if the e is still for sale? Price ? Contact info ?
  14. Like to ind one o these, but does make for a tall truck What's it add to the height, Make some o those "logging roads" little more navigatable here in northern mn . Least with out a "blade" chained to the front. make's them ATV/ GROOMED snowmobile trails look like highway Ben
  15. here's a nice B81 http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=3064027& Hummmmmm.......Might gotta give him a holler later this morning....
  16. Thanks, Many, Many more ?'s to come. B's in 6x6? which years or application? Any one have an idea as to how many built? or even seen one? budget, well a person can get a whole pile o $'s in a new rig too. LOL. an your right, reliability a must. thanks again, ears'll be open BEN
  17. Question for all'Ya, Is it reasonable to work one of these on a quite regular basis, some light duty, some heavier duty (hauling logs and light equipment)? If or when they go down, is it near impossible to find parts? Or for the application does one find a good body and set it on newer 6-by running gear? diesels rare or retty common in the E's, And which one's where the most common? I do get DOT stopped on a rare occasion. An four/six wheel drive? Pretty neccessary for me. An' don't be afraid of speakin' yer mind, I,m a younger buck, descent wrench, an like things point blank! rather have that then dump pile a loot, only to have a bucket o' bolts can't do nothing with that just looks pretty. Thanks, Ben
  18. if'n your holler'n at me its all it says is a white mustang 6 cyl.gas. can be seen at http://antiquetrucks4sale.com/. i dont own this one but for a better price maybe!!
  19. gentle men, love the site, info and such. i like old iron period, no matter what it is, longs it isn't to common.. ( bored with the 50's,ford chevy thing) i found your site by way of thinking to of putting like say a 41 eht on a newer running gear, but i don,t have it in me to hack up something that ain't already. but also it is YOUR truck! i also need to modify for my truck to do me well in the log cabin/ sawmill business and i believe an ole MACK would fit in nisely. like the look of E's, A', and B's. I do need to upgrade from my 79 ford that i put a 7.3 in. I just need higher GVW's, 4x4 or 6x6, diesel, few brains so we can work on it, flatbed dump. i'd like to stick with mack but the configuration is a tough find in newer chasis and keeping the costs down somewhat hee HEE!!!! so the cummins power does sound a bit more inviting. as for myself i'm all ears as probly Rich is for options. please bear with me as i pick the noggins of the ol' timers!!!!!! (the eht is in PA with White gas motor and tranny!!!!)
