Candace53 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Hi we are in the process of finishing up a restoration of our 1963 Mack B67T and cannot find a speedometer gauge. Anyone out there know where we can get one or have one for sale? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryS Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I don't have a speedo but that's a nice truck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 X2 on the nice truck! The speedos show up on ebay from time to time. Some folks here will probably have one also. I have one but it is a little crusty so it should be considered down the list. 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZB755V8 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Nice job on the restoration. A Speedo would be the last thing that I would think hard to find. I have a few all are different but will work. which one are you looking for? What condition is acceptable? Might be able to fix you up. I had my Speedo and Tack rebuilt... big bucks... don't know if it was worth it but looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrybarbon Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Please what was the original engine in your B67, those alloy shutter radiator set ups were mainly for the B615 with Mack 864 V-8 and the B73/75 models. Although, here are some Mason Dixon B models that look same as your B 67, there are no emblems on the hoods to indicate motors such as the V8 for the B615. maybe Mason Dixon had a special build spec for their trucks and with the bigger radiators to cool the motors Any guys know more about Mason Dixon macks, I have wondered for a while what the set up was with their B models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 The first picture of the Mason Dixon trucks appears to feature a Jo-Dog which was a temporary third axle and fifth wheel added to a single axle truck. 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

If it can be cleaned up and works without a major rebuild I am sure we would be very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candace53 Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Thanks to all for the nice comments and tips on finding the speedometer. Really enjoy all the pics posted as well. I will have to get the info on the original engine, I came into the picture after he had started working on Big Green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I'm pretty sure I read somewhere where ALL of those mason Dixon trucks with big radiators were scrapped...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 My father worked for Mason Dixon in the late 50's here in Nashville. The old Terminal Building is still there. I have wondered if my truck was one of those. All I know is that it was a city truck and delivered to Neely-Coble Mack Dealer here in Nashville, April of 62. Guess i'll never know for sure. I got to speak to Mr Coble several years ago, but he told me everything Mack had been tossed, since they went over to Freightliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They helped with a lot of ownership details with my B Mixer. Had owners build order and specs particular to the trucks from the redi mix company that bought it.
