  1. OH YEAH, the mail pouch... I forgot all about that ... With the panel out, it never occurred to me. With that big void under the window, I suppose it needed a support of some kind.
  2. What did Mack use in the back of the cab on R models. My Superliner has the big diamond pleated back panel the surrounds the rear window and goes to the floor, but there is nothing between it and the back panel of the cab. Seems like a pretty big waste of space really.... should I just fill that area up with insulation? Did Mack have some sort of 'fitted' insulation panel that went there? Secondly, what is the large metal kinda pyramid shape thing standing up there? It is welded in place near the rear cab mount and almost reaches the rear window opening? Does it serve some purpose? (sorry for no pic of it)
  3. Has anybody bought/used the latches available on Ebay? Are they of good quality/fit?
  4. ARE YOU THREATENING SECRETARY CLINTON???? WITH A KNIFE???? I'M TRIGGERED!!!!!!!!!! Must....find....safe.....space......
  5. Were there certain models that had factory chrome covers? And yes, he said that the manifold/turbo were robbed.
  6. Perfect timing. Air spitter dumping.
  7. This was a 290 and 10 speed.... note the tag axle. Owner later rebuilt the 290 to 440 cummins
  8. I'd say the Astro pics were taken in the early 80's. . .maybe 85.
  9. What compressor is standard? And this does have the CPL 695.
  10. Our milk hauler pulled in today with a new (to him) 2012 Mack triaxle.... the rails on my '80 Superliner Wa-a--aa-aa--a-y cleaner.
  11. The double-standard is hard to stomach, it seems to me that we are all guilty of somehow letting the Left get away with it out of pity...
  12. No the truck I'm looking at has a 335 that's bad, and I found this 400 magnum for a good price. Plus, it has jakes, which the 335 did not.
  13. Glen, what are they talking about when you hear people say off-set key?
  14. Russian deadpan humor... l almost fell out of my chair laughing.
  15. Yeah, I've heard they'd bend pushrods and generally hammered the top-ends, but the 400 magnum??? The one I'm looking at has chrome valve covers, after cooler.... factory according to the owner.
  16. Does anyone on here know much about a small cam 400 magnum? Small cams were only sold up to 350h.p. in road equipment, correct? If I was re-powering an old truck that had a bad 335, would going big cam be a no-brainer? I kind of like the nostalgia of period correct power plants.
  17. Your "B" is super kool. love the patina and the pipe
  18. Try spraying a mixture of Creolin and water anywhere you suspect the smell is coming from... does a great job on eliminating that awful smell. https://www.amazon.com/OAKHURST-COMPANY-Creolin-Deodorant-Clean/dp/B000HHLQZY
