Speed Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Hi; I'm Speed,and I'm new to the world of Mack. I just made arrangements to acquire what I'm told is a 1940 Mack EH tractor. I figure this is the best place to learn about this old beauty. Right now,all I know about it is that the owner had it running and says it sounds healthy,the tires are near new steer,about 75% but a little weathered drivers,it's a six wheeler,has a flathead six engine a 5 speed,3 speed brownie,and I'm sure I remember seeing a 2 speed axle.I'll be posting pics as soon as possible,I think I have one I can post now. For now I'm not planning a restoration as such,but I will be driving it whenever possible. (I'm sure THAT'll be a learning experience!) Plans are to install a good flatbed and a knuckle boom on it,as I will be using it to move a variety of things,from pallets,to engines,to cars,and towing trailers for short distances. I look forward to your input as I become comfortable with this od truck. Feel free to remind me I'm a novice in this arena.
