I just need to add something here. Most of the OLD timers here know what a MACK truck is. Now go back a few more years 20s&30s and you get CHAIN drive rears with a huge #180 chain. I hope that is the correct number; they are almost the size of a pack of cigarettes. My dad has one of these beasts from 1929 and has been doing a slow restoration. The rear wheels are solid tires that are 16"x40" and with the drive gear weigh around 1/2 ton.The 300U had all it could do to pick one up. OK here is what happen. The hood on these trucks are of a very pretty slope design. Many hand formed hours of work. Start up this four cylinder beast to show it off. Go down the driveway and make a left turn into the field."to turn around" Ruts in same field. Top bolts in hood not in hood! Hard rubber tires and ruts are a great combo! Hood starts to bounce! NO NO NO! Hood flies through air. Hood goes under 1/2 +++ ton rear left solid tire........People watching DO NOT DARE laugh. Took almost a year to fix that hood.
