Popular Post Daniel Rischard Posted Wednesday at 05:39 PM Popular Post Share Posted Wednesday at 05:39 PM Hello . I am Daniel from Luxemburg (Europe) , i am new to BMT . I'm a mecanic and US car fan but since a friend showed me a picture from a b61 that was for sale in Nürnberg (Germany) i knew i must have this one . There are not many in Europe . It is a lot of work and money to bring the truck back on the road , but i have time to do it . I found BMT on the internet , great site , very informativ for someone who doesent know much about Mack . I will take pictures from the progress of the restoration and post them . Thanks Daniel 3 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76669-daniel/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted Wednesday at 11:39 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:39 PM Welcome to BMT. It would be interesting to know how a truck from Poughkeepsie NY ended up in Luxemburg??????? There are some Mack collectors near you in Holland, who have an occasional show. Contact Vlad (from Russia) by PM or email thru here as he has their contact information. 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76669-daniel/#findComment-595988 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cruiseliner64 Posted yesterday at 10:33 AM Popular Post Share Posted yesterday at 10:33 AM Holland is the go to country to import vehicles from outside the EU as their import taxes are less than the rest of the EU.However the vehicle must be regestered and kept in Holland for 6 months before it can be moved to another EU country.If its a big money vehicle the savings can be worth it....

Daniel Rischard Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago Thank you for the info . I found a grill in Germany on ebay and some sheetmetal parts for a R -Series truck . The guy who had the R-Series parts had a adrress in Holland , Willi Gaffert , I called him and he sell me a cabin with doors and some small parts . He has an N-model lug truck , find it on youtube . I found an other R Mack in France with a endt675 engine that i bought for the engine . There are some other b- Macks in France but very rusty and expensive . I have a R-600 dump truck too with an end 673 engine , bought it from the first owner , will post some pics later . Wanted the front brakes , never saw a truck without front brakes . I can not registrate a truck without front brakes in Europe . The guy who i bought the b61 told me that had some freinds in NY . Had some other trucks Chevys and a Firetruck wiht 2 stroke diesel all from NY . Sorry for my writing , i'mnot used to writing in English .
