Cheers for filming your antics again mate🍻 I beat you to saying fuck when the Mack's filter went for a shit.😄 Would it be worth giving the roof a coat of rubber roof paint to stop the leaking temporarily?. I'm subbed to ORDU and Diesels Down Under. Them and your channel are my favourite Aussie truck channels so far👍🏻

Great stuff mate. Yeah I wasn’t happy, the day was getting on and I wanted to keep going. The roof does need something like that yes. It was pushed in so over the years it’s held dirt and water and eventually rusted out. Thanks for subscribing him. He’s a great bloke and got some interesting stuff coming up. I watch the Diesel Down Under bloke also. Good channels. I’m not sure how many Aussie blokes are actually doing a variety of old truck, tractor fix it channels. It’s mainly American blokes that I watch

Love old Macks 🙂 The Maxidyne inline-6 always sounds smooth but brawny. The main 5-speed ‘box (I think) has synchromesh but the 5-tonne Maxidyne flywheel and very slow shedding of rpm when the power pedal is lifted makes it redundant to all but the nascently patient; double-declutch unless you have an extra day to get there or you have Jacobs brakes that are working 😆 Great to see another survivor earning its keep 😎

Great stuff mate. They aren’t bad to change if you take the time between gears. This one is no exception apart from the fact all the brakes are dragging, I will eventually fix it.
