Nice truck. You can send your hydrovac to White Post Restoration in Virginia. Mine cost $500 about 4 years ago. I thought that was a little steep but the brakes work great. I had everything redone: master cyl, wheel cyl and hydrovac. Probably $1800 total. I didn't do the hydrovac on my L model and those.brakes don't work as well. I should have it done but I have been too cheap.

Thanks Mike, I will look into it.

Hi Tymack, that's a really nice EE. It never ceases to amaze me how good original-looking trucks like that continue to survive. Is she an older restoration or was she retired and well stored?

Would you like to list her on the E-model registry? http://www.bigmacktr...e-model-owners/

Thanks Andy in West Oz, I am really blessed to have found such a clean truck. Only 20 miles from the house! It has never been restored( a little primer over the bare paint) just stored well for a while. It has 58,000 miles on it. and most of those were off road hauling trees at a nursery, before that it was a fire truck. The previous owner added a dump bed. I plan on getting it running and maybe down the road paining it. I think it looks good in its work clothes. I will register it.

Thanks for the info Rob. I figured I would be better off getting a new system for it. I would like to get it back on the road this summer.

I recently bought a '41 Mack EE. The previous owner put a 300 ford motor in the truck. The vacuum line to the manifold was disconnected when they replaced the motor and was not hooked back up. I don't know if the vacuum pump needs anything (new diaphragms, etc.), but would like to know if and where I could take it to get rebuilt. If its not worth rebuilding, is there a system comparable that I could replace it with?
