D2Denny Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I have a several hundred page Mack Salesman's book from the early 60's. In searching out other models that have a RADL 515 rear, I came across these pages on pricing for the then newly announced F Model. Enjoy! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Man, some of the stuff wasn’t as cheap as I would’ve thought. Thanks for the post. I actually had a 62….. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67RModel Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 A heater with defrost was a $185 option. 🤣 I guess if you operated only in Southern California or Florida you probably wouldn't need it but you would really be pinching pennies not to select that option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydawg Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 So if you didn`t order the heater,did you not have defrost? You`d think a defroster would have been a legal requirement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Back than heater delete was common. My 65 falcon came from Florida and had heater delete. No heat/ defrost/vent controls in dash at all. All it had was the fresh air boxes under the dash with a door you opened for fresh air on floor area .

67RModel Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Plus it says it adds 47 pounds of weight to the truck. 47 pounds here. 23 pounds over there. 34 pounds back there all adds up. If you were running bulk haul or paid by tonnage I could see where shaving all unnecessary weight off the truck could be very significant over the life of the truck.

mowerman Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I can remember for a years when I was a kid and a young teenager car ads would a lot of time include R and H all the way up to around 1970 … you wonder with this design what took them so long to design a conventional to match… Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
