Rescuing an A40 Mack from the Woods Part 2!
After far too long we are back to the Mack! I received permission to get back on this property so I could continue the process of getting this A40 Mack out of the woods.
I want to thank everyone who commented on the last video and provided a great deal of information about this truck that I did not know. I really appreciate those who did that!
It has been raining a lot here so it has become too swampy to drive back there but as soon as I can I will be back making more progress. A friend who is more experienced with a chainsaw will also be with me to help fell the bigger trees growing through and against the truck. The last thing I want to do is drop a tree right on the cab of the truck....

I'm not for sure what year this Mack truck is but I'm guessing it's late 40's. It's been sitting in these woods for nearly 40 years and it's my goal to drag it out. I know this is going to be a big job so I better start looking for a bigger winch... CORRECTION: This is a gas motor not a diesel, thank you everyone for all the information, I really appreciate it!
'75 Chevy Cheyenne C20 Driveshaft rebuild and install!
Просмотров 2,7 тыс.5 лет назад
After going out to the shop and finding huge puddle of transmission fluid under the truck I knew it was time to replace the transmission seal. While I had the driveshaft out it was the perfect time to replace the carrier bearing and u-joints. I wasn't going to do the u-joints initially but after further consideration I decided replacing them was the right thing to do. Unfortunately I could not ...

Making some improvements to the Trailering Special! On this episode I install a new Edelbrock 600cfm carb, replace the old water pump with a bad bearing and finish all the polishing on the paint to make the truck look a little more presentable. Lots more to come!

It's a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado, I have had it a few months and it seems to be a good truck, I forgot to open the hood in the video, but it has the 4.3 V6, I would have liked to have gotten one with 4.8 or 5.3 V8, but for the work I do, the V6 should be sufficient.

    The model 1486A is from 1983 or after due to the lettering and evergreen color & the 4.8 amp motor. The '70s Eurekas had metal handles, 3.5 amps or E.S.P. 6.0 amp motors.

    Our 1945 EH Mack had a factory wood floor. You could probably check with a friend of mine, John Heckman. He is an engineer with Mack trucks. His father was an endline mechanic at the macungie plant for 44 years.

    When I was a baby my parents owned a custom Cruiser almost identical to this. My friends thought it was cool because it looked just like the one the family drove in the movie Poltergeist. Actually Poltergeist 2. Even though they used very similar olds custom cruisers the second one used the facelifted version and of course in the older film they used one pre-1982.

    It held up pretty well for sitting there for fourty years. I just recently went to a truck salvage yard and a lot of them sat 20 or 30 years and were rotted into the ground. And half of them didn't have an engine or trans.
