Loadstar

Sounds like it's in nice shape

Happy Birthday!!!

Great information.....Thanks......I guess that was in your neck of the woods. Its nice that MADDOG93 has managed to keep two of the trucks together....Pretty amazing....maybe he needs one more?

Saw this one on Pa. craigslist......Looks Nice!!!http://allentown.craigslist.org/cto/3821697500.html

This Isn't a Mack but I thought Someone on here might like it....http://nh.craigslist.org/cto/3735433875.html

Also saw this Nice L Model on E-bay.....http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1950-MACK-FIRE-TRUCK-/221227244933?_trksid=p3984.m1431.l2648&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&forcev4exp=true Thought of "Bulldogboy".....I think its in his neck of the woods.

Came Across this on Craigslist today.....Hope this link works..... http://providence.craigslist.org/cto/3816249454.html If not it was on R.I. Craigslist

Greg, Sounds like your gaining......best of luck getting her running!!!

Those are some great points all of you hit on......I agree with Yarnall.....first and foremost is the enjoyment of owning And working on an antique truck. As far as showing trucks......I wondered how guys moved their trucks around? Seems it would add up quick no matter which way you went. As for me I'm content seeing the nose of the L model peeking out of the barn.....and the smiles the kids have climbing all over it.....

Happy birthday!!!

So how did those who attended the "Spring Melt" make out?

Carl, fifth overdrive......by the way how's the International coming?

Paul, nice looking truck!!!

. Don't know if it helps but my truck has a 5 speed..........part number..... TR-6710

Happy birthday Vlad!!!

Happy Birthday!!!

I went to a local town auction last year.....they had two loadstars. One was a 1600......the other was a 1850 I think ....both were pretty much junk....if i remember correctly they sold for over a grand each.......sounds like the one your looking is a good deal!

Great information....Thanks....I had never heard of a Herbert hose clamp either, or a Hux tool. I did get a brochure from the Mack museum with a generic list of equipment. Also the blueprint they sent had the locations of a couple different things.....such as the "Scott air packs". There are a few brackets (holders) I haven't seen before.....one compartment has 3 or 4 aluminum rectangle holders around 3"x5"...... Maybe for some type of flashlight? Also the Mack museum sent a picture of a truck with a slide out draw in the back for a safety net....I thought that was pretty cool. I saw an old picture once of guys training with one. Talk about trust! Anyone ever jump onto one??? Hey F.w.d........ Whats the OVM seat?

Looks nice!!!

Happy Birthday!!!

Thanks guys....... Sounds like a trip to the Spring Melt would be worthwhile.......F.w.d..... I agree with the pick head axe.....I usually carry the "Irons" or a Denver tool.....depending on if we're running with the truck.
