Whiskymack Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I'm trying to find images of the underside of an F model cab. I found some part book images on this site which show the construction of the cab but I was hoping that someone who has access to one would be able to tilt the cab and take a few pictures of the underside. This is for another of my model projects which I started years ago and then shelved. I made the basic cab shell but need to add the interior and underside detail. I'm intending it to be an early Western model with the old metal dash cab. Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry T Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 This is the only pic I have that shows any part of the underside. Maybe Mike Harbison (Superdog) will pop in. He has this truck now as well as several other F's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) This truck was posted on here for some reason and at some time. I don't remember the matter of the fact but suppose the pics would be of help to you. As you can see this is Western F (FL?) and has aluminium frame rails.

h67st Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 An F model western with a Detroit! That would be a cool truck to have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxidyne Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Continental Baking bought a couple hundred in the late 60s, reputedly at least one was still on the job in the late 80s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskymack Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 Thanks for the images. I'm still hoping to get a view under the passenger side if at all possible. I don't think it is symmetrical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david wild Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 This will make you sick, Al Wheeler who was the Mack dealer in Las Vegas years ago, God rest his soul, was a super nice guy, bought a Superliner with E9 from him anyway he had a backyard at his shop and had probably dozen Hayward F models back there, after he passed away they all were scrapped, being in Vegas the sheet metal was perfect, I let the person in charge of cleaning up what a brain dead I thought he was, we have not spoke since.

(no great loss) It is sick but it goes with VegasVegas is all about the shinny new things. Trucks are just to get a job done and when they are old they are scrap.Living in Southern California I have found that it is odd that there is not a single yearly truck show I Las Vegas that features antiques.

Well according to the plates that gem is located in South Dakota even though the door says North Dakota.
