- Quick overview of the 1957 B61 Mack. I want you feedback of what you want to know more about on this truck, or my other trucks. Please comment, rate, subscribe to learn move about the B61 Mack, 1946 Chevy, 1976 Kenworth.
The B61 was a styling masterpiece. It looked like a dog! I've loved these things since my youth and I'm 67. I especially love the sound of those B's that had air starters. Mad Max would have been proud.
Prettiest truck from that era hands down, still working too, nice
A classic rig, for sure! Thanks for your restoration, the Mack deserves it...
I also like the '46 Chevy 1 1/2 ton dump truck, and would enjoy this adventure, too. I also learn on every video.
Loved the B Model. I used to drive a B Model boggy drive in North West Australia pulling a three trailer road train, either cattle or general freight in the Kimberly's when I was a teenager in the late 60's. Spent a lot of time gear changing of course. Sometimes had 100 ton up behind that thing on dirt outback roads
It is a beautiful b61, wish I had one, pity me l live half way across the world from that Beauty.Too old to migrate,,any way those rigs always keep me company at night in me dreams... ❤❤❤❤❤.
Thanks for posting up all of your cool equipment that brings back memories of the good ole days of my youth. I think my favorite is that B61 Mack
kenneth walker your welcome!
Nice Truck, well set up. Very nice work on the steel plates and reels etc.
Victor Hex thank you very much!
Lovin the young ones bringing back the ol school trucks and keeping them alive....
Good job there young fella keep on keeping on
Seeing that time clock brought back a flood of memories of watching my dad's morning routine of putting in the paper disk, logging it and locking the case before he left. Good memories.
The ultimate Bush welding truck
Great Mack love it .i will keep watching thanks
Emil
You like me ever since I can remember, I ALWAYS been diggin the Mack B model
They're just plain COOL , awesome videos always!
Thanks for sharing, keep on keepin on !!
Love the build vids in that you don't go over the top which is great. Any old truck videos are great, would love to see them in action sometime.
Brings me joy to see soviet tractor in the US. Never saw one, equipped with forklift before..
Love the variety of your collection. (mostly the engines)
Jay Swarrow yea we made the forklift attachment for it. Lol
Very cool video I learned alot about old trucks keep doing what your doing.
Used to drive the B model Mack back in early 60`s. Had to be a hunchback to fit in it. It had a duplex transmission and the mechanic heated the 2 sticks so I could shift it with one hand, using my palm to split the gears. It was a real tank but got the job done. Great video and my compliments to you for keeping the old iron going.
Great old trucks.
Sounds absolutely outrageous!!!
Wow, bad ass Mack, I always preferred a Mack, drove a 1988 Biscayne model Mack, 5 speed, she didn’t like hills but on a flat highway, she tore up the road, she was the fastest rig in the yard, never broke down on me, mechanically, came to work one day, and she was transferred to another terminal, bummer. The owner of NEMF had several restored Mack’s, nicely done and a mint green interior, real nice!!
I love learning how you start carbureted trucks. I wish you would not edit out the full startup no matter how hard it is: and always film it from inside like this!
Nice trucks. Great to see the old rigs still working.
That's a SWEET welder,and setup.500 amps ,that things a hoss.
Some very cool trucks, looking forward to seeing more on all of them.
Wow! Amazing sound. Great old Mack. So I commented too soon. I like all of them. But the Mack sounds great.
Thank you!
Thank you for making this video and greetings from western Montana !

i just seen this truck going down the PA turnpike between RT 8 exit and oakmont today. looks amazing going down the road
just_sendit_94 awesome!! Glad you got a quick glance
"It always starts up... usually." (Funniest comment ever, great Mack, great video)
Badass man. Thank you for sharing subscribed. I’d like to see more on your welding lead spools to get an idea on how you made them. Very cool trucks. Utilizing old technology is flipping sweet in my book. Thanks again
Josh Andress ok. We can do that 👍🏻
Love the old Chevy dump truck
New sub here, just found your channel, I love old antique trucks, especially if they are still in use! Just awesome!!
I wanna hear about all your trucks and projects. 👍 Awesome work you do.
LOL awesome. We can try!
Awesome man, we ditched cable years ago. TH-cam videos at the end of the work day! Love learning from TH-cam ! Would love to watch your builds. Two good video makers I have been following to learn from is goonzquad for there builds and there editing format. Also Andrew camerata for his camera equipment and his hard work ethic! Hope to see more videos from you. Kevin murano, Connecticut!
love these old mack`s.i think they are the coolest
Awesome video. The 46 Chevy is very interesting.
That’s a nicely sorted truck. Those old B series are beautiful.
Citationtech thank you!
B- model Mack’s were the prettiest trucks made
They also kicked ass as fire trucks in numerous countrys!
I'm retired after 45 years on the road, when I was in my early 20's I drove a couple of B-61's, they were very cool and not antiques at the time lol. My only problem was I'm 6'1" and they have a very cramped cab for someone tall. I enjoyed the hell out of them though. ;-)
Awesome video awesome truck
All cool stuff! Just to have property and storage and then have at it and enjoy it.
Excellent work! Maybe crank up the welder someday!! The slant 6 is great!! It must be a '60s vintage Hobart? Keep up the good work! You're an inspiration to me!
Jonny Dingo 1965 Dodge Dart engine. Just removed it off the truck today. Sorry!
I see that your from PA you need to bring the Mack to the Mcungie truck show in the spring and to the Mack show at Gearheart machinery in Litiz PA in October
Andrew Ward remind me. I’ll try.
Awesome trucks love the Mack the kw is awesome to.
Cool truck man!
Thank you!
The trucks are nice love the start up on the Mack would like to see any peterbilt from the 40's 👍🏼
Dennis Balliram yes same
The most amazing thing is the red soviet style "Belarus" tractor next to the truck. I didn't think that they were sold in the US
maran13 lol. Yes Belarus tractors are sold here. Not common. But there are dealers
You should bring the Mack to the Mid American Truck Show! Would love to see it in person
Garden Tractor Kings when is it?
@@95Cummins2500 it's at the end of March here in Kentucky, not sure how far it is for you to come to Louisville Kentucky tho
Sweet Truck
Love your truck man keep up the update
Great work !
it sounds so cool when you start it the gallop
that is such a cool truck! I want to have one just like it, but have a custom made bed.
that is too Cool ,i love it.
That truck is awesome.
Good job on it.
In the cold weather push in the clutch so you don't have the drag of the cold transmission on the starter.
Hey man I love to learning about your 1946 Chevy dump truck and your 1957 Mack b61 and your 1976 Kenworth w900a could you please do more videos on them in the near future I would be looking forward to that
Love the old B models. At one point you shut the door and the solid sound was amazing. I had one and it did the same. Transmission? Single stick, duplex, triplex, quad? I have a ‘46 Dodge 1.5 ton truck and I also used to have a ‘80 W900 A model KW. Keep it up!
Nick Kercheval Mack has a unishift transmission single stick
That's a badass chevy dump!
That has to be one of the coolest weld rigs in the world man. Im about an hour north of you. I have a auto repair shop in Oil City. Man im really good with electronics and shit with cars / trucks. You ever need something lemme know. Fast Eddie's Diagnostics & Repair.
Awesome! Thanks for letting me know!
@@95Cummins2500 I also do instrument cluster rebuilds and color LED conversions of gauges.
I love the video as well. Lets see the engine of the Mack. Restore that 76 KW! I was born in 76, nice truck like it is.
Love this truck! I always like seeing and hearing it pass my house!
Lol. Thanks man!
Can't wait for the Kentworth build
Don't hold your breath. That is a long project truck
Years ago I drove a B-Mack fire truck. Love the video without the music. Music takes so much away from the information.
Excellent
Mack for life
Nice truck! the cigarette lighter shootin out made me laugh
Nice vid, would like to see you working on the trucks or your day to day work. Thanks
Instagram I keep up with more often if you have that.Schultz Ornamental Iron is the name to search
I'm 46 b was the first truck I ever drove quadplex 12 year's old ended up with her so to me you got a b truck back on the road
love the channel man ! just found the channel keep up the great videos.
That is way cool, how about a drive with next time. Thanks for posting this.
Love the looks of these old Macks. The ole 46 Chevy is very cool! Curious, can you please explain just how a jake brake works? Tom
I this run across your channel you have good videos so l SUB and turn the bell on be safe
Thank you. Much appreciated. and I mean that!
Keep uploading your a great content creator love it!
You reall y ought to push the clutch in to start it so you aren’t turning over the cold transmission., drain more on the battery, love your B61
This is absolutely perfect. Loved watching the build. If you're on Facebook. There is a page called. Vintage Truck Marketplace, you'll see tacagraphs on there. I picked up 2 for my old rigs and they work like a charm. You don't see much torsion bar suspension on 70s trucks. Some old rig collectors might be interested in the torsion suspension and axles if you've thought about selling them.
Thanks for the info!
The Chevy is a keeper!
i agree,you tube should be for learning.
Sick looking rig brother
Cool truck. And especially, our tractor Belarus there))
The frames on the KW and Pete may be identical if you need to swap the power train and suspension
That sound!!
Great videos Emil! I'm curious to know what engine is powering the KW and if the Mack needed much engine work or maintenance?
Kenworth has the small 350 cummins. Engine work on the mack?!?!?! Fuck.....That's a story in itself lol! Make this short and sweet. When I got it, suppose to add a battery and it will start up. Every fuel line was rotted, I fixed those, went to start it, I had a stuck valve, bent push rod. And one valve was hardly even there it was so old and rusted it was about half the size it should be. Sooooo yea everything on the engine sucked. Oh and the injection pump plungers were all locked up and the injectors were all junk. So lol. Hope that answered some questions. Now, runs smooth.
Let's see that truck at work, welding, driving tough to job 💪
Joel Sotelo about 2-3 times a month I post pictures of it working on my instagram account.
Very cool vid
Hope you make more videos and not so many slideshows. like to see you spray the bed you built with maybe some spray bed-liner under all the things you put on it. maybe even the floor of the truck also. I wonder what color you are going to paint the truck?
Great video man. I would like to know the size of material you used of the old Mack floor build. Because I have an old GMC 9500 truck that I want to put a floor like the one you put in the Mack. Would also like to see more on the kenworth as well. Thanks for the update. 👍😎
MHFtractor 1/4 diamond plate for the bed of the truck.
I got a GMC 9500 1968
6 wheeler dump and redid the floors, cab its got a 671 Detroit
I WAS WONDERING THAT, YEARS AGO I SEEN A MACK THAT HAD A MACK 626 IN IT AND IT WAS A 6 CYLINDER TURBO ENGINE. IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN I THINK THAT THE 400 SERIES WERE V- 8'S. I WOULD LOVE TO BUY A MACK LIKE THAT TO PULL MY 35' FOOT 5TH' WHEEL TRAILER. WITH A ENGINE LIKE THAT, IT WOULD BE NO PROBLEM. I WOULD BE COOL TO HAVE A 5 AND 4 TRANSMISSION.
That old speedometer was a tachograph, used to check speed and hours you drove etc...
WHAT I LIKE TO KNOW IS WHAT MOTOR U GOT IN THAT MACK AND THAT KENWORTH. THAT OLD DUMP TRUCK U HAVE IS PRETTY COOL TOO.
350 cummins in the Kenworth. 673 in the mack
Best thing about any car or truck is the sound. That's why the new ones suck.
e d lol. Exactly!
Love the "B"... Never paint it.
that really show how smart some folks are cold engine been sitting guess how long and start it up racing the poor old cold old thick oil in crankcase engine, yes sir that will make one sound off
John Harrington you a idiot. But ok 👍🏻
Beaut ol rig! Automotive quality started to declide after the mid 60's.
Man you gotta clear coat that old Mack!
Let's see the Mack doing some work
Nice Welding Rig.
Please upload more even if it's not much... holy sh!t he responded
Lol. ok
Would like to see how you made the reels thank you.
