This could be a really nice truck--V8 motor and 10 speed.

Should be the original 864 V8 (aside from the parts that is a rare collector item). If its running you can keep it running by treating it nice!

I would drop the bumper and gin pole.

Bumper is counter-weight for the gin-pole. Gin-poles are very handy to have around. Easy to find something with a 5th wheel, hard to find a good gin-pole truck.

that thing looks excellent id like to have it,,,and yes i would leave the boom,,bob

 long as the garage door is darn high to bring inside; or the bay is long enough when boom is lowered.

Well my DM is around 8-6 door is 10 ft don’t think it would fit and there’s always Mrs mower lol

Neat truck, appears mostly original, motor is likely 865. Mack stopped making the 864 before this 1968 R model.

865 would have a turbo on it.   terry

Yes on the 865 and 866 the top of the valve covers are flat and do not have the vent tubes

Thanks for the clarification, contrary to the information I read Mack made and fitted the 864 at least to 1968 and more. It would be interesting to find out when Mack stopped producing the 864 and last year an R model or other Macks had the 864 fitted. We had a 1964 B615 without it's 864 because the motor was cooked by the owner, which was common here in Australia for the 864's. We imported a good 864 and sadly we sold the B615 with the imported 864.
