BOB DINGSDALE

quession for you fire truck guys.Some L model Macks had L model front fenders and some had E or A model front fenders.Was this a order or something else.

fastest way would be to take it off and wash it out with solvent or someother good cleaner.then check compressor for pumping oil.

these are all from Hankstruckpictures web site because I don't know how to put mine from camera onto here.There were 80 trucks registered.The LMSW L is a friends Mack.

was the wiper motor above the windshield or under dash.I have a Mack ad of a fleet of B63 log trucks that had wipers on top of windshield.No holes in cowl to indicate that it was a owners job.Very rare to look at.

Gotta love old MACKS

Picked up a 24x36 picture of Tucker Smiths .A BIGBOY pulling a frieght across plains near Green River WY.for $5.00.Nice addition to the train room.

The first ones had 12V71s with Allison 5960's then they went to KTA's with the 6061 Allisons.They were built and designed for Menzie Bay Div of MacMiillan Bloedel just north of Cambell River B C .I think there was 29 built in total.A lot of them are still hauling logs at the north end of Vancouver Island and Queen Charletts.All were built in Ontario plant as cab and chassis then came to Vancouver to be fitted for water tanks,bunks and trailers at Columbia Trailer.

got a picture or model number

yep Hadley horn cover.Anyone need one?

you must be around Jim Whittaker place.Got two logging trailers from him a few years ago.One is now on my LJ in Port.Big truck show at McLeans Mill labor day weekend also Salmon festival.Lots of BS.

I think your steamtown also has a sister to our CPR Royal Hudson too.Ours is the 2860 but isn't running right now.Went from Vancouver to Squamish along the shore.beautiful trip

you easterns have all the luck with big steam.love the big steam engines.specially on my HO layout.BIG BOYS,CAB FORWARDS,611 of NORFOLK WESTERN.all we have here in town is a little saddle tank 2-8-0 on a 5 mile run.logging engine and a 42 ton shay not running.

there is a 52 Mack L on Ebay today under MACK TRUCK .might be of interest to you.

Looking through my july/august 1975 magazine I found a article on a AUTOCAR model DC9964U off-set cab.Has any one seen one back east?Model in book shows a dump truck with Cummins PT 270 high torque rise engine,Fuller TO955ALL trans,SUDD rears,on Hendrickson rubber blocks,FL-931 front axle,Ross HF64B power steering.Has Fruehauf dump box.Question for the Autocar experts?Were there very many made and is there any left.Nice looking truck.

looks like a pressure wash and a new paint job and it will look like a million bucks

I like the paint scheme and colors.good scoop

I hope the yellow one and blue one are on somebody restoration program.

Hayes used the F model cabover cab.Mack called it the Interstater and Hayes called it the Clipper.One here in town,couple up Island.Rusted out fairly fast here same as the Budd cab rusted out ahead of there time.

why with 605 hp would you put 9.59 rear ratio in it.Lots of power to ground but slow.my lj has 9.02s 11.00x22 tires .78 in main and .813 in a box and the only way i can get to 50 is in mexican od.

the CAT looks like a U model mack

thats a long way from a Pete cab.closer to KW.They were made the same place as the first series WESTCOASTER

what letter is after the 4 didget number on browny.the letter will tell you what ratio it has in 3rd.the letter C is .75 overdrive.engine swap should go smoothly.

too hard on tires and too big a fuel guzzle (or too much lead in foot)and always talking to the judge.55 to 58 chev's are mine
