Its werid because when i think back to the 1950's i subconciously think of everything in black and white or really dull colors from what i have seen on TV, sometimes i forget that the world was just as colorful and vibrant as it is now, its nice to see these old trucks today in HD, Thanks for the vid.
Every time a old Mack fires up and is ran down the road a Angel gets there wings my wife said I must be watching a Mack video cause your smiling ear to ear another awesome video brother keep them coming I am subscribed for life
I remember my first ride in my uncles 1957 Kenworth. It had a 270 Cummings and triple sticks. It was so awesome riding on the haul roads with shear drop-offs while he had one arm through the stearing wheel while he was down shifting. And the jake doing its thing at the same time. That was one bad ass logging truck. Regards from Ody Slim
Was it a 15 speed triplex with a 2 speed or a 10 speed duplex with a 3 speed for the 3rd stick? I can’t seem to find any videos of people legitimately driving a 3 stick truck where the third stick isn’t something like 4 wheel drive low and high or something. There is an “18 speed 3 stick” video floating around but someone took a modern 18 speed and put the splitter air switch and range selector air switch on aftermarket sticks and that doesn’t exactly count. Or was it something different like a 4 + 3 hooked to a second 3 speed? I asked because Mack had a couple 10 speed duplex transmissions like the TRD-72 paired up with the 8031C or 8035G 3 speed brownie. I just can’t find videos of anybody driving one. Not that and not something really crazy like TRQ720+8031C providing 59 different ratios of which you might only use 17 of them if you’re not heavy and maybe 24 tops if you’re overweight.
Im sorry. It was a 1957. Got my numbers mixed up. I was to young to know what trans. It was an 18 speed triplex. Thats all I know. I have pictures if anyone wants to see them. It was streched out to make room for a log loader. @@dustinfurness2155
You really know your tranny's. Its funny you mentioned Mack. I worked for Mack for 30 years at the Baltimore parts Distrubution center. I was lucky enough to get up to the test center in PA to bring back the first CH model ever made. Also got to drive a lot of experimental trucks to include the first 500. It was bad ass. It could go over Dans Mountain overloaded without even downshifting. @@dustinfurness2155
Good morning guys a bit early for it's a damp Friday in the UK that mack truck I a great looker I love the way the hood lifts up and the cab window leaves back a nice little project nice whistle on her engine have a great weekend guys for her age it's nice to see survivors thanks Andy
For about a week I drove an old 'R' model Mack dump truck with twin sticks. While it was cool and sometimes a little fun, a week was long enough for me. Kuddos to the old timers putting in 10-12 hour days back then. You did a great job shifting that old girl!
I'd love to drive one of these again. It's been about 50 years.I'm sure I'd be rusty, but with a little practice I think I could do it. This looks like so much fun! How many people know how to work a transmission like this these days?
I thought this channel was amazing before, but this channel gets better and better every episode! Seeing these old trucks reminds me of playing in my great grandfathers old White WCs and Autocars when I was a kid. Those giant steering wheels. I didn't grow up around any old Mack's (my great grandfather didn't like them too much lol) but I love how they look and sound. Can't wait to watch more of your videos. Love how that old Peterbilt 351 with the 6-71 sounded. Gotta love a Detroit, screaming like a demon, and an old Mack barking like a bitch. Someday your gonna have to find some old Brockways and some old Whites lol
Absolutely! I hope we do!!! And thank you I really appreciate you loving the channel! I'll be doing my best to keep them coming and making them better and better!
Dad always said you had to loop the left hand through the steering wheel while working a duplex transmission. That way you could kind of steer at the same time. Me, I never mastered it. LOL!
Another truck that has sat for a long time but cranked right over and ran like a champ But it's a Mack. They can sit for three times as long and start up if you have fuel, oil and battery, just the basic necessities.
Love it learned on a B mod 1958 thru 62 models duplex triplex trannys then later R models with power steering 237 over slow shifting 5 speeds they were great tractors good but all hard trucks ,I wish a had driven Kenworth or Peterbuilt I probably be still driving ,40 years was enough but would love a nice B like that now as a toy just as it is,it would be a huge hit at any truck shows,thanks for the show.T-MAN
O-H-I-O Porter greetings 🇺🇸Another truck come to life! WOW! So, is this For Sale? I bet it was fun to drive, even with the WOBBLY wheels! I could see you bouncing quite a bit, but driving this old truck was worth it! Even getting behind that big steering wheel is a thrill! Looks like it wasn’t in too bad of shape either. Good stuff! It reminds when I was 14 & was looking at an old B model Mack for my FIRST truck! It had sat for years & the guy got very rude with me, so I walked away from it! I had cash in hand & was ready to drive it to my uncle’s house. Probably glad I didn’t buy it. Thanks for sharing! 🥰🤩✌️
673 with a turbo was 250 HP factory., Pretty good for the time. Next you need to find a Mack BCR Kit. In the late 60;s and early 70's Mack made the BCR. It was an R Model cab and hood designed to bolt on a B model Chassis. Used the B model steering box, and had a clutch pedal that went down through the floor (very early R did too from 66-68). They were pretty easy to spot if you knew what to look for like the B steering box and The B fuel tank mounting
endt 673 These are great little engines made for the twin stick transmissions. I drove a 1964B 81 tandem dump truck during the blizzard of 1996 here in New Jersey. It had the 18 speed quad box and the 250 Mack engine. I would drive that B 81 dump truck every day over any new truck.
@@eddieweigel9490 Steve up at HighPoint Garage in Union City ran some of those B-81 dumps up till almost 2010. NJ had a "Constructor" Tag that allowed you to gross out 70,000 on a ten wheeler, but limited you to I think it was 45 MPH. NYC had an even bigger yeaarly permit that allowed you to gross 100,000 on a ten wheeler. Lots of those trucks ran 24" tube type tires, 65,000 rears and a 18,000 steering axle.
I remember in the late fifties when I was about 10 years old, I went with my father to work on a "take a child to work day". He was a truck mechanic at the local Mack Truck dealer. He took me for a ride in a B61 and gave me a lesson on how not to shift a twin-stick.
My dad drove a B61 Mack with a 5x3 tranny. I was 8-10 and would ride with him sometimes. I thought it was cool how he would use both hands to shift, but to this day, I don't understand the 2 stick thing. I eventually took up truck driving for a living with a single stick, 10 speed road ranger.
@@Only4Trucks Would love to, but right now I'm not doin' the best I can financially. Been tryin' to get back on my feet after gettin' out the Navy back in April this year.
Thank you! We really appreciate that! And we plan to for truck shows next year! Any chance you have any trucks to be interested in doing an interview style episode with us?
Great old truck, but IMO these turboed B61's sound better with a single straight 5" pipe going underneath and exiting just ahead of the front bogies. Better sound, near the ground. 😁
@@Only4Trucks Yes I know, I do too, but a single with larger diameter would sound a bit better I reckon. Absolute best sound I ever heard was an old R600 flintstone with a 5 inch pipe underneath. Straight pipes underneath have this natural reverb because the sound bounces off anything close by and echoes around the truck. Sheer eargasm LOL. Love your channel.
Man my Dad owned a B61 and loaned it to his brother and my dad went to get it back from my uncle and he got mad and busted the windshield and Dad drove it from Covington KY to middlesboro ky which is about a 4 hour drive with no windshield 😅
