1964 Mack B81 Dump Trucks

[j hancock]

Actually, two 1964 B81's.

B81s always look funny with single axles.

There, I said it.

[Gmerrill0516]

I second that opinion. I like them but they are so massive that they aught to be twin screws but some are not...

[ekennedy21]

I like them, they are like a newer version of an fk

You crazy this time Wobblin, more like B81 single axles look BAD ASS!!!

[b615rich]

They all look good - on 24.00's of course.

[Maddog13407]

that yellow one use to be an SX tandem

[Job41]

A Mack B81 has a high degree of Macho factor whether it is a Single or a Tandem. If they could talk they would say "move out of my way little girly trucks." Yes, I realize there where bigger Macks such as the prime movers, like the MX70SX, but they just don't have the same class as a B81!

Why didn't the body get painted red or black, why green, looks good till you get to the dump

[Maddog13407]

Thx Jim-and if I can master this new OS I will post some shots of Dan doing the restoration

[Red Horse]

[Red Horse]

[Red Horse]

test 3

[Vladislav]

If you continue testing with so nice truck images nobody would say any bad about hijacking.

I'm with the tandem likers.

At least until I go sandblast/paint four hubs with eight rims.

Have done them 12 with 22 to the moment and still have neither truck complete. WTH.

[Red Horse]

Vlad- I'm done! About 6 hrs total time on phone with Apple Support and they still can't figure it out. Like I'm first person in the world who upgraded their OS X system. give them A for effort though. Back online with them in AM! Sorry to clutter the thread but they wanted to see just what was happening.

[Red Horse]

final test!

Niiiiiiiice.

Think a 2010 Granite will be around in the year 2065, let alone working?

[ekennedy21]

That being said, I think I would rather be driving the granite
