Measure the frame rail outside width. The 848 is 34” 849,850 is 40 wide. Judging by your pics your looking at a 848.Lol. I have a great wife and I have a continually growing collection of yard art. I actuallly just bought three Mack B series tandems to save them from the scrapper. Two diesels and a gasser. One is suppose to be a rare B87. Also picked up 4 International R210(Red Diamonds) tandems(one with a real nice dump box and hoist) and a R190 single axle. I might grab the Kenworth K100 with the log loader in the pics. The 1960ish White cabover in the pics has a Cummins 250 and a Road Ranger RT- 910 tranny. I have a line on a free KW924 with a 8V71 that is missing the rear diffs I could use for the engine and maybe tranny for the 848/849. If I got the 848/849, it likely would be for free of very close to that. The farm is literally a 10 minute country road drive so I likely wouldn't even have to pay to haul it. Just use a loader or rig and the cost of fuel. The big question for me is whether the missing body parts can be found?? My other concern is what the truck would weigh in it's current state? We'd have to cross a single lane country bridge and I'm concerned about the weight of the truck and a loader towing it. Lastly, what would distinguish it as being an 848 and not a 849?
