  1.  Well  the time has come , the pickup bed is being built as I write .  It will look similar to the ad in the Saturday Evening Post  March  6 / 1943 that  MACK  had . I  am using Wilson trailer deck planks for the floor , because in the ad the slogan was " my middle name is Work " . If all goes well it should be  PETTY  SPECIAL .  I  guess for now it is one step at a time .

  2. The Mack towed a 20 foot tilt deck trailer to our 100th Anniversary Plowing Match with our John Deere 1830 and plow. With the 5 and 4 transmission behind the cummins 3.9 4BT motor the best I could do was 19th gear. Once there I plowed and the truck took part in the vintage display for the day. This winter plans are to get the 1940's pick up bed box made. Hopefully painted by next summer. If anyone has a March 6,1943 Saturday Evening Post Magazine I would be interested. It has a picture of a yellow Mack ED with the pick up box I would like to have built.
  3. I have a few ED parts from doing our 1941 restoration. I have the feul tank , 4 speed transmission, bell housing and a few small odds and ends . If any of these parts would help ,contact me.
  4. my site seems to have been hacked . I got the message like others did, not  my wish.    Is there something being done to correct this kind of content.

  5. NICE WORK I am trying to find a 1/50 scale Mack Pinnacle tractor w/ a white cab Could you help me I do have a collection of 1/25 scale models that I have built over the past years Keep up the good work Dreamer

    1941 mack ed

    It is 2020 and the ED has been painted and the chrome refinished . This past fall I walked by some lumber ,and decided to make a temporary narrow box . We have plans to sound proof the cab this year, and a few other things, if they line up. Again stay tuned in and we will try to keep our site updated as things get done.

  11. We have a 3.9 4BT cummins engine with a 5.9 cummins engine sensor installed in the bell housing. The Mack Tac goes right around to 6 o'clock position extremely fast when it starts up and pins itself at the 6 o'clock position. The electric Mack Tac # is CE17MT4117M and it has a 6 pin connector on the back. Should this be able to hook up to the 5.9 sensor and operate correctly? If anyone has a wiring diagram I would appreciate it.
  12. Got our new bumper (stainless steel) hand crafted by Custom Metal Worx in Lucan Ontario. Had the seats reupholstered in Cambridge Ontario by Apple Auto Glass. Hoping to have the truck painted by next spring. Stay tuned for further accomplishments.

    First Run

    First test run with our mechanic . This was last fall 2017. Found out we needed to tighten up one hose clamp on the rad. Shifts pretty smooth. Recently we got the seats reupholstered. Horse hair removed and proper foam on top of the springs. Looking forward to painting and sound proofing the cab this summer. Looking forward to a few cruise nights with the Mack and 73 Roadrunner.

    Mack ED

    Yes and No. We made some alterations so it will keep up to traffic. The original gears are still in the rear end.

    Mack ED

    After 2 years we are mechanically fit for the road. We've attended a few car /truck cruise nights. It seems to attract a lot of attention. We hope to get it painted by next spring.

    Mack ED

    searching for a vintage Mack ED 1938-1944. would like one in reasonably good shape. We have owned Mack's since 1974 and this seems like a interesting way to round out our experience with Mack.
