Thanks Miss Flatbed Red. She is a beautiful beast, the B61T Mack is always my favorite truck; because to me as a kid in 1964 the first HESS truck was a B 51 MACK . There was a copyright issue with the Hess truck being a Mack and the years after 1964 were redesigned as not to look like a Mack . A 1964 Hess truck today 2023 can demand a $3000.00 price tag in mint condition. That Sleeper truck cab is one I've never seen.its looking great with the green interior. ♥💚♥
I have driven a lot of "B" models but this has to be the nicest one that I have seen.The worst part is that these were current when I was a driver,damn I'm old!
Good video Red!!! Good Subject. I don't mean to be nasty, but I am not sure what he means about the sleeper being unique, the integral sleeper cab was a Mack factory option for most of the production run of the B model and Ls and Es. There was at least one other coach builder did these conversions for Mack over the years the B models were built. 😊
I like the green colour of the inside.
That is one nice looking classic vintage ride👊😎
Very nice 😊
Sweet Mack
I just love the old b models, particularly the b61s and that one is one of the nicest I've seen, just beautiful. Thank you miss.
Nice Mack!
Twin Stack Black Mack with a sleeper in the Back!! 👍
That's one beautifully restored old Mack. 1 million plus on the old dog! She's earned her retirement.

Lots of class. 👍👍
That's one fine ride
Which trailer do you like best with it?
Beautiful.. Old truck runs down the road like a 2023
Noboy will ever talk about a 2019 KW T680 like this in 60 years
Very nice.
Could anyone direct me where I can obtain fenders for my ‘47 Ford COE?
Love those B models. Thanks for sharing miss!

From. Canada. / Nice. truck. it’s. too. bad. it. isn’t. a. tandem. axle. instead. of. a single. axle. and. a. nice. Long. wheel. base. too. boot. try. riding. in. one. of. those. B- 61. units. Like. I. did. about. about. 55. year’s. ago. I. was. 21. year’s. old. hitched. a ride. with. a. Grimshaw. Trucking. Ltd. unit. an old. B-61. cab. (. very. small. cab. ) day. cab. , he. was. pulling. a. 45. foot. Fruehauf. trailer. with. a Load. on. it. of. oil. drum’s. destined. for. there. warehouse. Located. at. Hay. River. , NWT. mileage. 1. way. 651. miles. from. Edmonton. , Alberta. Canada. too. Hay. River, NWT. / Now. that. was. a. real. trip. most. of. the. highway. ( pot. holes. after. a rain. ). or. nearly. washed. out. from. rain. and. dust. was. so. heavy. I. thought. a. few. times. the. outside. truck. air. - cleaner. would. get. so. plugged. up. , we. would. have. too. stop. and. clean. it. out, I. thought. a. few. times. the. truck. would. stall. from. all. that. dust. entering. into. the. outside. truck. air- cleaner. , visibity. was. really. bad. , had. too. just. crawl. a. Lot. of. time. on. the. gravel. Mackenzie. highway. , the. highway. 43. from. Edmonton, Alberta. was. pavement. too. the. town. of. Peace. River, Alberta. distance. from. Edmonton. , Alberta. too. Peace. River, Alberta. is. 302. miles. North. and. a Little. bit. west. and. the. pavement. stopped. a. Little. bit. North. of. town. of. Peace. River, Alberta. from. there. too. Hay River. was. a gravel. highway. And. that. was. back. in. the. spring. of. 1969 ( Many. Moon’s. ago ). And. you. had. too. watch. for. full. grown. moose. , timber. wolves. and. black. bear’s. also. along. either. highway. going. North. / I. got. too. Hay. River. , NWT. nearly. broke. I. originally. wanted. too. get. a job. on. construction. outside. Hay. River, NWT. driving. a gravel. truck. or. buggy. ( earth. mover ). the. job. supplied. free. camp. accommodation. , the. foreman. Let. me. stay. there. about. 3. day’s. I. remember, but. he. said. if. someone. quit’s. you. have. a job. , I. even. told. him. I. would. do. Labour. work. if. nothing. else. /. fast forward. nobody. quit. , I. had. enough. money. for. a. Greyhound. bus. ticket. back. too. Edmonton, Alberta. from. Hay. River, NWT. so. I. rode. the. DOG. back. south. too. Edmonton, Alberta. , I. knew. you. could. alway’s. get. a. job. truck Loading. or. unloading. at. one. of. the. truck. terminal’s. in. Edmonton, Alberta. or. even. washing. cars. at. the. automatic. car. washes. / Yes. that. was. a. real. trip. I. must. say. , Now. I. Look. back. at. all. the. BS. through. the. year’s. and. places. I. have. been. or. seen. with. an. 18. wheeler. in. oilpatch. hauling. , Log. hauling. , Longhaul. trucking. USA. and. Canada. and. 11. year’s. tour. coach. driver. 76. year’s. old. ( And. still. don’t. know. anything. )By. the. way. those. B- 61. we’re. real. tough. truck’s. Like. the. old. HD. 80. Hayes and. Pacific. and. old. Kenworth. trucks /. Keep. the. shiny. side. and. don’t. have. a. Mack. attack. with. that. unit. / Bill. S. Canada
