Well considering all your efforts and hardworking staff especially the deadline he gave you was ridiculous and working under an impossible timetable. You guys certainly earnt your money but I wouldn't have spent that amount on it. Great work guys! You should be very proud of yourselves!😁👍
@@GreenJeep1998I agree buddy. The time he gave them in the beginning was a joke on it's own! Let alone him bringing it forward and expected the impossible by adding more work! I would have charged him twice that amount! Plus people should be held accountable and once the design or decision has been agreed upon it shouldn't be allowed to be changed by the customer unless it's mutually agreed upon with the staff. Giving businesses unrealistic time frames is not fair and they would have been under so much pressure restoring that old Mack. When people rush a job there's more pressure and stress put on that person or their workers and he's just lucky they managed to pull it off. There's nothing worse than rushing a job especially a custom restoration job.
Some people ain't got the time but there pockets are deep I done this with my business an told other customers I got a huge check if you wanna drop then fine but money comes first especially from a huge client you been serving since the start. That guy is huge in heavy haul loads an got the beat record on book. Never lost a load never damaged the product an never was late his fleet his work. Get it done.
I wouldn't work for a boss like that unless I got $1,000,000 a year for my trouble. It's basically abuse but folks have become conditioned to it for years.
@@UltimateTruckersNo Sir I just drive for a friend a 1988 Mack R 686 SX tandem dump truck I drove DM RD B models over the years Nothing like a mechanical Mack
I dropped $16 on my 1076 R Modal (day cab) Artic White paint job. 2 weeks later, I'm scuffing the hood, and matt blacking it. lol! It took him 3 months, but worth every dime.
@@rickstrandberg6398 There's nothing quite like a E9 v8 here in the UK we got Scania v8s that sound nice but not quite the same, we do get E9s in older Renault Magnums pack Mack v8s but we never see Cat 3408s sadly I've seen a few at truck shows.
Plenty of 3408s in Australia. Not a great deal of them in highway trucks. There is a UA-cam channel of a bloke with a cabover kenworth that does roadtrains with a 3408 in it. Gm something his channel is called. Maybe someone reading my comment can stear you to his channel. Though getting rarer, there is still quite a few of these e9 v8s getting around Brisbane most of them i see are either pulling tri axle tippers or they're truck and 4 axle dog configuration tippers (pretty sure you call them truck and pup, similar). There was and still is plenty of superliners in Australia though they're getting rarer to see. The truck in this video was very popular in day cab configuration for the oil companies towing B-double tankers when i was a kid. They were light tare weight and 500hp and at the time nothing was really close. Superliners were also very popular across the board as roadtrain primemovers and heavy haul work.
Im guessing you guys are in Australia. Where are you getting parts for these old macks? I'm 20 minutes from the Mack plant in macungie pa and we have a hard time getting parts.
Its nice to have money. Worked hard and enjoy. My supercharger on my built 427 maloo is already 30k and that was last year. Dont know how long ago this was done but today money 70k wouldn't get you that far.
The original Pimp My Ride. All they did was put pretty lipstick and pretty useless shine on a pig. Didn't fix the actual mechanical problems that the vehicles had to begin with. I can only hope this not the same outcome .
This kind of stress related drama is bull, it's just like American chopper back in the day!😮😢, I didn't make it to the end of the video, and wouldn't watch a whole show for sure.
This Mack looks unrecognisable! Do you reckon this makeover was worth the $70K?
Yes, I reckon it was worth every cent.
If he kept pushing up the time line and adding more work, I’d say $70k in any currency wasn’t enough.
yes, that is SUPER badass!

The trucking company went bankrupt years ago. He had the best looking trucks on the auction block.
I know I think he kept 2 or 3 of them.

He did build himself back up now
That wouldn't suprise me lol.😅
He didn't go bankrupt, McAleese bought the company and went bankrupt
That R model Mack looks gorgeous. 😮 they R series has always been my favorite Mack truck.
It was great hey! Had some good character to it. What do you like most about the R model Macks?
It's a Valueliner.
There is something call A contract. Get the owner to Sign one and Avoid his Nonsense with Constant Charges and Rushing the Shop Owner to get job done.

There is a reason why they went bankrupt and are out of business now.
@@yosefortez4009 they are back
@@yosefortez4009 who went bankrupt??
You know he’s boss has money when he pulls up with a duramax right hand drive
Rhd is aussie standard
@@Bubbaj226 but they have to convert them to RHD
@@jmg_2_slow74 They go to Australia lhd and have to be aftermarket converted?
@@Bubbaj226 yes from what I search
That truck turned out amazing! Yeah, the customer was completely ridiculous with his demands!
The mack looks great hey! They did an amazing job with the time they had too
I wouldn't work for a boss like that unless I got $1,000,000 a year for my trouble. It's basically abuse but folks have become conditioned to it for years.
I wouldn't hire you
What a crazy transformation! Good looking truck
Looks unrecognisable hey! $70K well spent. You own any trucks yourself?
@@UltimateTruckers We actually lease trucks!
Unbelievable job that old BullDog Mack looks fantastic ain’t nothing like a BullDog Mack
An epic transformation hey! Worth every penny I reckon. Do you own any trucks yourself?
@@UltimateTruckersNo Sir I just drive for a friend a 1988 Mack R 686 SX tandem dump truck I drove DM RD B models over the years Nothing like a mechanical Mack
lot of work put in to the truck in a short time came awesome 👌 beauty on the paint job and sounds choice 👌 👍 😀
These guys did a great job restoring the truck in such a short time, hats off to em!
It is a very beautiful R Model for sure.
Stunnin hey - was cool before and amazing after!
I dropped $16 on my 1076 R Modal (day cab) Artic White paint job.
2 weeks later, I'm scuffing the hood, and matt blacking it. lol!
It took him 3 months, but worth every dime.
that mack is a moustrosity of a truck. Is incredible how a classic truck can turn into a exclusive a beatyfull and i think even powerfull truck
In America 🇺🇸 it takes one person tp paint. How many it take to change an light 🤔
How many E-9 v8sare in australiyer? Are you guys hoarding 3408s' also?
@@rickstrandberg6398 There's nothing quite like a E9 v8 here in the UK we got Scania v8s that sound nice but not quite the same, we do get E9s in older Renault Magnums pack Mack v8s but we never see Cat 3408s sadly I've seen a few at truck shows.
Aussies are big fans of a Mack superliner! Would your dream to own be the E9 V8?

A great job
The boys did an amazing job hey - the Mack looks unrecognisable!
Sometimes you gotta tell the customer to naff off.
Im guessing you guys are in Australia. Where are you getting parts for these old macks? I'm 20 minutes from the Mack plant in macungie pa and we have a hard time getting parts.
Sucked in mate
I was wondering if we could see the Perth locomotives move.
That was an epic journey hey - keep your eyes peeled for it on our channel!
thanks.
Nice 500 v8
Its a classic hey - Love what they did with the truck, looks unrecognisable!
Super superov 👍
Why do folks open hoods so hard? Can't imagine why support cables, and or springs, ever break.
Meanwhile, I send my car in to get a few things painted & it takes 4 months.
Its a sad reality hey haha

Trying to create drama is fake video. Viewers easily see thru this.
Jon is a flog
So are you
I'm a Canadian and I'm not sure what a flog is, I have a pretty good idea but I need a definition LOL
Mate he worked hard his whole life. Why call him a flog just because he has something nice?
Kelly still owes money folks will never see. He earned the flog title.

Ultimate truckers is the channel bud!

The original Pimp My Ride. All they did was put pretty lipstick and pretty useless shine on a pig.
Didn't fix the actual mechanical problems that the vehicles had to begin with. I can only
hope this not the same outcome .
hate this kind of televison, always on rush, never on quality of the work
This kind of stress related drama is bull, it's just like American chopper back in the day!😮😢, I didn't make it to the end of the video, and wouldn't watch a whole show for sure.
Don't waste money on that ugly junker find a 379
