  1. Thanks guys. It was sold to the CIA in 1949 and used until it was sold at an army sale in the UK in 1967. It has USAF numbers on it and came with a mobile command unit but that is like Swiss cheese. Going to restore it as original as possible but I'm sure parts will be hard to find. Got to dig it out, free off the brakes and drag it home. love a challenge !
  2. I am not sure how original I am going to keep it. I think it may depend on how tough it is to get parts. I would love to get it back to the way it was the day it left the factory. I think it may be worth more but now I have it I am not letting it go !just going to take it one step at a time. Will keep you posted as I go along. just need to remember to take photos as I go.
  3. Yup ! Edinburgh Scotland. I'm an optimist ! Any ideas where I can get parts from in the UK? Thanks for the help and advice. Also the warm welcome.
  4. This is my new project !!!!!! cant wait to get it home and start the restoration.
  5. p.s just had a thought, the winch on the front is a monster ........ so it can pull its self out. now just a small matter of getting the engine started.
  6. I am in Edinburgh. This is the first Mack I've ever owned so its going to be an adventure Just finishing off restoring a series 3 land rover but I am sure that is small potatoes compared to the truck. Got to dig it out and give it a good pull with my land rover....... we will see who wins.
  7. Thank you, I am going to need all the advice you guys can give me. Will keep you posted with my progress. Stephen
  8. Just to let you all know I have secured the old LFSW that is in my albums. I am well aware how much work it's going to be but any and all hints or tips would be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to hearing your advice..... how to free the brakes off would be a good start.
