Looking for an AC model?


Recommended Posts

It looks like some goodies with the Macks and Brockways, wish I could justify a few more AC's to the wife. Paul

Would be interesting to see that FJ(?) chain drive tracktor with the L-model cab.

If you'll have any chance please make a pic and keep an eye for a final price.

Sorry (or happily) I'm too far from.

been to many of Alex's auctions, he doesn't waster any time. usually twards the end he gets tired and things go cheap and quick. wish I had unlimited funds. only about an hour away from me. Im sure the Mahan crowd will be present which is always nice. they keep some of those really rare ones from the scappers

The R model rescue in the other auction looks pretty sweet as well.

I cannot be at the auction, but I'm pretty sure one of the AB's has the wheels I need for mine. I'd appreciate it if someone who attends can get the contact info for whoever buys the ABs.

Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

went to the auction today. lots of parts, lots went reasonably to. the cream of the crop was the red and yellow AC. I didn't get a pic but it was in the flyer, it was not restored but was painted many years ago. it went for $19500. the same guy also bought the Blue 361 Brockway, I think it had a 671 in it, it was a 361. was fixable. cant remember what it went for. he also bought a 1918 or so chain drive Brockway that was restored a while ago. it went for $13500. the 358 Brock I think might have went to scrappers, I didn't get to see it get auctioned. the B75T bucket truck was rough. cab was shot along with all the sheetmetal. it went for $1000 and I wanna say it went to a good home but I think the scrappers got it. the Sterling Mixer I think they kept. the gray FT chaindrive went for $19000. the one Ab went for $1500 with no engine or trans. the other one went for $4500. A brand new DM cab with doors and wiring harness brought $3500. there was a whole pallet full of Garrett and Schwitzer turbos that went reasonable, $500 or so a box . 6 rebuilt injection pumps in the wooden boxes for 237/300's went for around $500 a piece. I was outbid on that one haha.

The Red and Yellow AC did sell for $19,500 to Cherry Hill Const in Ct, so he saved that from scrappers. I bought the 1919 Brockway for $13,500 and the FT for $19,000 and both ABs, one for $4,500 the other for $800, and the 3rd mack dump body for $500. The Ak went for $3700, not sure to who but I thought Lyons said it was going to CT as well. Not sure what the AC with the modified BX front went for or to who, but i think all the trucks were saved from scrappers.

Many thanks for the pics and the info.

Looks like you got a good bunch of old iron but not for free.

Hope and wish you lots of time and power to rebuild those goodies.

I dont know who got the injection pumps but they were a steal. I heard that same punk when he showed up bitching that the auction started early. Ummm It started 5 min late actually. He just showed up an hour late lol.
