Glad to hear of your find. My pasture bound B model had the last inspection sticker of 1991 and it was sunk in the dirt with low or flat tires. We put in 5 gallon of fuel and pumped up the fuel with the primer and pulled the old girl and she ran and had brakes. So 14 years in the field and we drove it home.

Everyone I have met in Mack land have been nice and helpfull. Go luck on your R.
