That "rare"1974 Mack would scare me to acquire and depend on right away. Lots of "engineering" there. Originally an eastern V8 truck, with a later hood panel installed to stuff an intercooler behind it. I like the idea of what was done but lack of attention to detail really shows up. I've never seen a "splayed frame" Valueliner but maybe they were produced. Certainly not until the late 70's was the series released. Rather it is probably a later model hood on an earlier chassis to make the intercooler fit ahead of the radiator. Lack of attention to detail really shows itself on this build. I think overspray from paint work on the air intake hoses, frame rails, back sides of the personel doors, etc. really detracts from a selling point. This one is "dolled up" to make it appealing and I've seen this seller do this same thing to trucks several times.
