  1. Thank you dear friend for full answer and useful comments. I think that you've solved some problems. your talk about B85 , PKD, and others are so near to truth. I've already had some such thought in my mind but I did not dare to say it. But i am so glad to hear these from you. First of all I have a question. do you know NR Mack returned to America or stay in Iran? By displaying these photos we can get new results ! an old 40' mack (with original hood and gril) that we have not seen these models recent years ! so why not today?? another old photo that shows a old mack with a different hood side with NR and Iranian Mack: it is amazing ! today, and a mack interior in iran ! green, like a NR interior.. and dashbord's bulge look like B model : another and different : an old pictures from 1942 : star! it seems L Mack was a military truck too! star! perhaps it is military too. but it seems roof is unusual and painted in other color ! perhaps it was a NR and roof was welded ! nice! but in old photos from 1940' and pehaps 50' those unknown cabin are fewer ! one hypothesis : according to your talk and my though, and mack's corage in iran's roads, i think after ww2 in iran small workshop created for convert NR cabin to public cabin for cilivian and people use. also simpleness body, roof, window, columns, and hood side are a proof for small workshop entity for cabin conversation. on the other side, commercial american mack imported to iran (PKD) and workshop made simply cabin for their. so after ww2 cabin of all models quietly converted to IranianMade cabin ! and we didnt see a NR cabin today ! but it is just a hypothesis ! here is some photos that shows a few old macks stayed more original than others : Look at fenders, light's stand, and hood side! and this hood side : in dashboard photos one of those have a different dashboard's door, like a B model ! also hood side look like B model ! so i think it is possible that these cabin had a relation to B models ! i think our though is very near to truth ! i wish to find the real truth...
  2. hi paul and thanx for your videos. yes these are really like a 32 hot rod ! lol. just a choptop need (joke :)) ) ------------------------------------------------------------------- finally i think these old macks produced custom for iran, because of : uniqe roof, door style, glass, and engine hood that we dont see in other models ! According to Mack owner maybe "LM2DM" is correct. so what the means of LM2DM ? an old iranian proverb says The smoke rises from the stump :
  3. you are welcome. we really like too. sometimes we make a trip to countryside just for see these old trucks.. Unfortunately main reason of old trucks working in my country is expensive vehicle price! for example in iran a modern truck price is almost 80,000$ ! also in iran some old american trucks parts have been rare and owners have to upgrade. of course some owner always work by trucks and they desire to upgrade their trucks! thanx. -------------------------------------------------------------- i found some mack pictures from the past. left truck is same mack! and i found a 1954 mack like LM serries too.
  4. thanx my friend. It really so astonishing that we see lots of this Mack models in iran, but no documents and resource is available about these. some owners may upgrade their truck parts to newer models. such as gearbox, engine, differential, and fuel tanks. but cabin and chassis doesn't change . for example, this is a 1950 mack with original color: yes iranian people love mack trucks. because of this truck's service to the roads , our older drivers known it "Golden engine" ! in some cities such as Tabriz you will see a lot of this model mack near modern Mercedes benz actors or volvo fh12 !
  5. hello to all. i am saeid, from iran. there are some mack trucks in iran(known as War mack) like NR and EXBX . You can see b85 badge on them. But at that time Mack b85 was not produced in America!! I did a lot of searching and could not find its model.. I heard from a driver that their model is "LM2DM," but I'm not sure it is correct. We know that during World War II american trucks used iran roads to transfer cargo to russia. But I do not know that these macks are same trucks or re-entered. Please help me to find model. thanks.
