Hi Guys....Finally going to check out the Ls85 talked about in a earlier post. The question i have is whats the procedure for engaging the pump? Theres no water in the tank and the condition of the pump is unknown......would like to see if the pump engages........only for a couple seconds...Thanks....

I went to reading Pa, craigslist..........all for sale section......open cab pumper.......if I was better at this I would post a link......

Saw this on PA. craigslist......Looks Nice

Wish it was closer ! Asking around 5500.00

saw this ad on craigslist....looks nice!!!!!

Thanks art......good solid advice....I'll have to make sure it's mechanically sound!

Nice Looking fire truck!!! Im Looking at one very similar to yours....Im new to this.....trying to figure out what to offer? Thanks

I will certainly keep you guys up to date. Thanks again for the advice........Im starting to believe its the mack from kittery ME. Has anyone ever seen this truck before?

The LS 85 might be from kittery....the build sheet says it was shipped to Portland maine. If it is from there, does anyone know anything about it? Seems to me a town like that would have held on to it. Bulldogboy The Amherst truck is Awd....750 gal. Pump 300 gallon tank....just over 10k miles....how do you know so much about it? Thanks again for the input. My email is miraarchery@comcast.net Picture of the trophy winner would be great.

Thanks to everyone for the advice....it will go a long way in making a decision. The guy emailed me the build sheets ..........just waiting to hear back about the current condition. Hopefully next week i can go check it out. If it still has the original engine its a 707b..Is that a faily solid engine? The International in the picture is from Amherst New Hampshire....Engine 4. Thanks again for the Help.

Sorry I'll have to work on that!!!

Here's a picture of it.....I think?

Hi, New to this site........I'm a firefighter in southern Mass. I came across a 50s Mack LS-85 For sale. The truck is registered and running and supposedly in good condition. Wondering what you guys think a good price would be ? I know it's hard without seeing it but just looking for a ballpark figure? I figured it would be something cool to enjoy with my sons. Any suggestion would be appreciated......Thanks
