Colomack 6 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I bought an old 74 f model Mack last year and am trying to get a few last things tied up for it's DOT inspection and I need a driver's side windshield, I have not had any luck finding one anywhere. Does anyone have any leads or contacts? Thanks in advance! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Superdog 5,906 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Very hard to find,any glass shop I've ever checked with has had no luck,check with anyplace that specializes in parting firetrucks,the CF used same windshield. Nice looking western F,what are the specs? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nice looking western F,what are the specs? Thanks for the replies, I got a few leads to pursue. I picked the truck and trailer up out of an old guys yard. Hadn't moved in 20 years but spent a lot of time with line and air valve replacement etc and drove it home. It has a small cam Cummins, maybe 350hp? Not sure there is no data tag. 13 speed Eaton and Rockwell rearends. And my favorite is there is what appears to be remnants of factory A/C! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ws721 390 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I had a Gentlemen approach me about F model windshields. He said the last 2 he bought were $1400. Cant verify that. Nice looking F! Love the 4 headlights Quote Remember if it's got a hood it's no good! Link to post Share on other sites

I believe it is still there, I'll have to look next time I'm at the truck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know much about these models or anything old Mack wise but definitely learning a lot with this project! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
68-f-model 268 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 If you have a source for the F model windshield gaskets please share. A nice looking Mack that you found. 👍👍 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully it'll be hitting the road for it's maiden voyage after a laundry list of repairs in the next couple of weeks, I unfortunately do not have any contact for gaskets but a local glass old timer says it shouldn't be a problem to reuse it.
