  1. He was the salemen for long Island and lower Hudson valley for over 30 years. he shut down many bids because he told the town's and villages he sold to that the truck's were being traded in to Mack. Mack is in the new truck market not used so he wrote into the contracts for the trade in. He had a warehouse in Clarmount NH were he stored the so called trade ins and resold them to north new England town's in VT and NH. That's how I lost my bid on my My Mack that I tracked and found in a small town in NH. He did not make a lot per rig but there were a lot of rigs that went up there. The white ladder that paul is talking about is the 1956 B85 from Briarcliff Manor and the white engine also came from there. The dept that had my Port Chester B-95 had looked at the white B-95 engine from Briarciff but it was to long to fit in there small firehouse.

  2. Left Port Chester NY [CONN Line] 330 AM for a trip to West Sunbury PA [420 miles] to pick up my outboard motor. In and out by 1030 am ,a stop in Pittsburgh for lunch then back on the road for home . Used state route 22 eastbound to 99. While on the way home I spotted a bunch of new Mack's on my right Watts Mack I found you ! that was me yelling as we went by in my Pick up . End of story thank you. p.s. photo of some ballpark out there , not Yankee stadium ?

  3. I believe the 1000 and 1250 pumps required the hall -scott engine to supply the additional H.P. for the larger pump and the hood is actually 11" longer than a regular 'L'. you have to get Harvey Eckard's book on L model macks ,try amazon or ebay for it.

    Also check the spaamfaa website often for L's ,that's where I found mine.

    1250 and up ,not 1000 as my rig is a B-95 with 707 and a 1000 gpm pump

  4. That is a unique truck....I spent some time there on Saturday checking it out. I was also curious when the boom was added? It's in really nice shape....also wondering why they left it on the trailer....

    loadstar did I meet you at the park, photo or cake ?
