Last B Model Mack

[Warren D]

Seen at a local truck show, this is the last Mack B model to roll off the assembly line.  I was told the current owner spent a lot of time, money and effort to track it down and buy it.  Not sure what the plans are for it, restore or leave as is.  All three rear axles are driven.

THAT is VERY cool! Thanks for the pictures, though you do know, you just whetted our appetites! Any more info or photos?

I have been told it was a mixer.  I found a video from last fall that shows it on the road, running.  I have heard that it is going to be restored, not sure if it will remain as a chassis as it was right out of the factory or if they'll put a body on it.  Currently in CT.  I am hoping it will be at Macungie at the end of the week (after all, it IS Mack country) and will be off the trailer.  Was hard to get photos with it sitting up high.

I remember seeing that truck for sale in a very old issue of Wheels of Time  many years ago, and I always wondered what became of it. I'll have to see if I can find it (I'm a notorious magazine hoarder) and scan the ad. Cool stuff!

Spoke with Matt Pfahl this morning at Macungie.  Sounds like the current plan is to restore as it appeared as it rolled off the assembly line, ie, no body.  Not going to happen anytime soon though.
