Force Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 I have done a few over the years, they are not unbuildable, you just have to have patience and go slow and test fit a lot. So they are nothing you put together quickly with super glue as you might have to adjust along the way to square them up and get them right.

Fat Brian Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 As Hakan said, it takes a lot of fitting to get the parts to go together correctly and run straight. I might spend an entire day filing and fitting and adjusting to get the thing to true up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bennyg Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 (edited) I wonder how this would go on the back of anR Series Mack? Ben Edited February 14, 2021 by Bennyg Name lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben The mixer would look great on the R Mack, same era as the mixer. I believe many of us are buying this kit for a conversion to another chassis.

Not tried to start her yet, just looked at the parts Have one too, the plan is to mate the mixer bits to a Autocar truck, cuz IMHO it looks more like a rough work truck. A project for when I retire in 5 or do years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
