The type of wheels needed for the White truck

Looking for a few parts for a 1915 3/4 ton white truck project, need a handbrake and quadrant and a set of correct 24” wooden spoked wheels and rims that take pnuematic tyres 

front wheels have 10 spokes and rears have 12 spokes, any condition would be acceptable even if only good for paterns

thanks mike

Hi, ive been told most mags can be altered to run either way ?, sorry i cant be of more help, two of the whites i have are unrestored and the earlier chaindrive models, both have the eisseman mag, and the third white is a small 3/4 ton 1915 model which also came with an eisseman, 

do you plan on a full restoration? or just a mechanical one? would look good either way i reckon,

Hi, well i finally got a set of front wheels and the other parts i needed, as for the mack in the background all i can tell you is its in Massachusetts, the 4 pierce arrow trucks were sold to another collector and he has broken up one of the rougher trucks for parts

i bought the parts from him, you can contact him through the pierce arrow facebook page, his name is Artie and you will see his posts advertising the pierce arrows for sale, he could tell you perhaps how to contact the man with the mack?

pictures of the front wheels, light brkts, L hand engine panel, gear selector and stick and the cast spring mounts for the front bumper.

Got a freind who has a lead on some pierce arrow parts trucks that along with two other running pierces are all for sale but as one lot, making the logistics of moving etc that bit more of a challenge,

the one with the winch has wheels i need but the greasecaps are different and the truck needs its wheels to be moved obviously, there are some other mechanical parts to go with the trucks,

Im interested in one of the running pierces and the smaller parts truck has parts i could use, you can see the front wheels were solids but have been chopped and adapted to fit pneumatics like mine, all this comes down to price i guess?

Had this engine side panel offered to me for sale, so I bought it,   also had some pictures sent of another pierce arrow unrestored in ca, a XB model but its not for sale, seems to be a few pieces still out there to be found?  must be a frame out there with a set of front wheels ? just got to keep looking.

Just an update, spoke to the museum staff the truck was picked up by its owner a while back as it was on loan, i asked if it would be for sale but have not heard back so assuming it isnt available,  back to the drawing board,

Hi from new zealand, my intetest are trucks from the teens to the twenties, and i hope one day to own an AC mack,  i know of one in a museum here that was imported about 20 yrs ago, other than that im not sure any others came here ?  I do have other early american truck projects and aim to restore them one day, well thats the plan?
