1959 B-series Mack Truck?
Hi,
I was curious if anyone has info on installing an old B-series Mack Truck on a 1992 Dodge W-250 deisel pickup?
My Dodge I purchased new and is now rusted past use. I have this Mack B-series I am going to mount on my Dodge chassis and install a rack body.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,Last edited by mike forte; 08-14-2009 at 07:41 PM.

We managed to get a couple of other small things taken care of. One was blacking out the front of the core support. When the sun hit the front of the car just right that green paint on the core...
