Popular Post B MACK 491 Posted April 11, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2016 Thanks. It didn't turn out too bad. I finished it a couple years ago. It took about 9 years from when I acquired it till I said it's finished. "Work sure gets in the way of fun stuff". I did have someone do the upholstery work, It turned out really nice. Yep, west of Kalispell a bit. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maddog13407 2,194 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 looks like it has a 10 speed duplex with a 3 speed brownie box Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B MACK 491 Posted April 13, 2016 Author Share Posted April 13, 2016 Thanks, Power is CUMMINS NHB 335 ( so the tag on accessary drive says), might have to throw some serial numbers out there at you guys. It has a 9 speed over gear main box and an unmarried 3 speed behind it. Not counting the low side, I would call it a 5 and a 3. I'm use to SPICER boxes( I know, wash my mouth out with soap, right). And 7.32 rears. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Freightrain 2,506 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 (edited) Good looking truck. I like the old 5 hole wheels! I know Mack is suppose to have wobble wheels, but I like the 5 holes better. Nice work. Like the colors also. I like those shift tags. I'd like to make something up for my truck with the 3rd stick. Might have to just have it printed(vinyl). Right now I just drew a picture on the dash for my back box just for those "oh shit, where is it suppose to go" moments. Not that I shift it much, but that is why I had to make a diagram. Edited April 13, 2016 by Freightrain Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

There is an outfit in Oregon(??) that reproduces tags like that. Pretty pricey, but I'm sure like a lot of these items the price goes down as the quantity goes up. If you are interested I think I can find the name. Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are! Link to post Share on other sites

carlotpilot 1,479 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 if that really is an nhb 335 you have one of the rarest cummins engines built Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B MACK 491 Posted April 14, 2016 Author Share Posted April 14, 2016 Oh, being a rare engine sounds interesting. I'll get some other close photos and numbers one of these days. I am the 2nd owner of this truck. I remember it hauling logs. It was a local truck to me. The original owner has passed away. I am not sure if he ever repowered it? When did the nhb 335 come out?

I hit on him when he advertised some Mack plates he had done for someone else. 1 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!
