Looked at this old Mack today.


Recommended Posts

This is a pretty cool old truck. Is a 76 R700. The old bloke who has it put a brand new cab on it in the 90’s and the superliner bonnet at the same time. Paint seems poor but chassis and cab are completely rust free. 
Has a 320 cool power, 12 speed and 44’s with eagle claw.

How’s this... The old bloke said he put a brand new cab on it in the 90’s, I was curious so I asked him how much it was. He said about $3500 for a bare cab back then. How times have changed. My drives door cost me $2200.

Is it in hibernation? Do you know what motor and gearbox it has?

Yeah it’s been park up for close to 20 years. Only just been de-registered. 
it’s has a 320 cool power and a 12 speed. Couldn’t make out the diff ratio.

Yes Mack tinware isnt cheap

A fella I know with a series 1 Superliner he has had from new reckons it only seems like yesterday you could buy a brand new E9 for 20 grand 

I remember Mack advertising them for that sort of money

Aluminium Mack step tanks 350 bucks, should of stocked up on those
