1974 R600L Mack Gold Bulldog 

313476 original miles 

Mack engine Model 7 ENDT 676

9 Speed 

Camel back rear ends 

This truck was purchased by my Grandfather in the early 1980's. It was used as a dump truck up until 1997. We took the box off and it's sat here at my farm since. Motor is good. I start it once and a while. All the parts on it are stamped Mack. I'm asking $6,000 for it. Just a number. Tell me what you all think it's worth. 

Thanks

Did they have the plastic dash in 1974? I thought they went to that later

According to Wiki Google, 1973 the cab was given a extra few inches (wouldn't mind a few extra inches myself 😉) and a plastic dash

The big shock was it says the Superliner was released in 77

 73 was the change over year. i have seen early made 73's with steel "round" dash, and later builds with the plastic dash.
by 74 all macks i have ever seen had plastic dash.

I read somewhere in 66 they continued the manufacturing the B model on account of they had so many  parts they needed to use up a bunch of them…  so people were probably getting a really good deal on the last years model  at that time

Bob, many years ago a friend had a 66 Dm 800 on a b81 frame. With a V8 and  allison automatic trans.

That truck was a real bastage getting parts for
