Got my first MJ. Liking it a lot!! Thanks to you guy's ( lurking on your site ) --- I found the rust under the carpet.

Bought it this way and have plans to make it even better, for a wheeling toy. Not my first jeep, not my only Jeep and surely not my last Jeep.

 

Nice Rig! Where in NorCal are you at?

Nothing to special about it, just an old obsolete Mack truck.

 

1959 Mack B61T Heavy hauler:

END+T 711 I-6, 2 stick 15spd-OD trans, 6.38 gears, and 12.00-24 tires.

 

120,000LB GVWR.

 

The Jeep, its a real heap:

:agree: and also your will look really good with some sanding and abit of painting and matching rims

 

Its got 2 set of matched wheel's, just only 2 of each happen to be on it at this time, i wasn't really going for pretty as i was going for functional/Operational this truck was awoke from a year long slumber, and tossed on to the road in 24 hours, hopping it still had some life left to live . . . the shocking part is now after about 3 week's of operation the truck is showing sign's of being far from worn out as i once thought . . . :cheers: strong truck :cheers: but ugly truck :fs1: i'll have to fix the ugly jamminz.gif

An old Mack and Diamond T fan. Everytime I see a junked one I strip the bulldog off the hood and the chrome emblems off the side cowling and all the aluminum spec data labels off the dash.Must have a footlocker full of the stuff. Never owned a Mack but had a '37 Diamond T 1ton and a '47 Diamond T 1 ton.

Can;t remember if Ive posted up the new truck that Ive unfortunately owned for over a year before I plated it earlier this summer.

 

Ol'e time member coming back from Hiatus. HooYeah!

 

'87 SWB, 4.0/AW-4/NP231 30/35 -3.55's. Paid $400 for it Sept 4th of 2008 and when I started working again this past August, it got plated with a new windshield and some new meats.

 

May I present you, The Black Eye
