Yes, if it weren't for the Soviet Union, we would still be driving with two or three levers of control Indeed, in the Soviet Union, for the first time, a gearbox handle with gear shift flags of increased and reduced gear was patented
is that a meet tag on the glove box? and what club is it or meet? I have a garage wall full of them from the late 70s till the 90s for the north jersey chapter of the ATCA
Although many years have passed since the production of this truck, its engine is still healthy and working as it was at the time of production. I have rarely seen an old truck that works as well as this one.

The Mack quad boxes are very useful they where great in the b81 “mixer” concrete trucks for curb pouring the idle pulls it along at a perfect speed I drove a 1964 b81 tandem dump during the blizzard of 96 here in NJ for 2 days switching off with my buddy nothing like the old BullDog Mack’s I would take a old Mack over any new truck today for work
It's great to see a young man messing with these old trucks .My farther drove one of those for years in S.E. Mass. LOADED with sand and gravel . He earned every penny . Shifted all day long . Hot Hot in the summer , Dragged a canvas ov er every load. Your truck sounds nice.
I hear ya. Being from Brockton, (late 50s, into the mid 70s,), my father worked for Mack in Boston, till they closed the plant in 66. I remember him working Macks on the week-end for Campenellis, doin brakes and clutches. and my uncle had a B-61 dump, that came to the house sometimes for work. I was amazed by these trucks, and the men that could drive them. Love these B-81s too. Really cool machines. (Especially needed that "AC" on the dash)
I had a 58 b75 I really loved that truck it had a 262 Cummins with a quad box had to sell to pay hospital bills someone got a good truck with that one.

You Know You Did A Day's Work In That Cab ! Thanks For Your Posting! Glad To See Younger People Taking An Interest In Old Iron!
I don’t exactly remember but something you do to the under the hood to stop the engine heat from coming in to the cab on these b81 trucks

When you can float a quad box you are that Damm good!!!
Bulldozing!!!
Guaranteed to keepyou up at night
Now, that's a work truck. All day everyday.
I never drove B81 but I drove a bunch of DMs with quad boxes . Log trucks and dump trucks. 711s and 673s with and without turbos. Good trucks.
Great trucks and great motors - never driven a DM but would love to.

I do believe that was February of ‘96. I was driving a tow truck on the GSP, 24 hours straight.
Is the front brake limit switch in or out. Hahaha! Remember those?
Yeah, I even had a few R Model tractors that were built new without front brakes. At the time some people considered front brakes unsafe
Yes, remember seeing them in the trucks my Dad drove in the 60s and 70s
Yes I do 😂
Thats a sweet mack!
Drive it like you stole it. Nice ride and great video. Drove these for years.
