MorrisMe: When you contacted Seattle FD did you get the truck number for each serial number . I have pictures off ebay of three of Seattle's units and one that was in bone yard in SPANWAY WA. Would like to get chassis numbers of the 3 off ebay and truck number of the one in SPANEAY to go with chassis number I haver. If you have this info could you email it to me .

Also in the 80's or 90's MENSEY BAY DIV. put a V-12 ROLL'S in a MACK CL350 log truck. Don't know what results were .

In 1955 MacMillan-Boedel made a deal with England to trade lumber for English items. They were ROLLS-ROYCE engines, LAND-ROVER jeeps and pick-ups. AUSTIN 11/2 or 2 ton trucks. All our HAYES HD's from 1956 till 1960 came with ROLLS-ROYCE super charge (@275 hp)or N/A(@200hp) engines . Our division had two WASHINGTON log loaders with N/A factory equip ROLL'S in them. Later in the 50's they were replaced with TURBO models @300 HP.The LAND ROVERS were bad for catching fire and being aluim. would melt. The AUSTIN'S were OK but crews wanted FORD's or GM'S so treated them as such. The ROLL'S were a good engine but hard on valves and over rated on power.Bottom end was strong except for oil pump gear and crank.

2stacksuperdog: The Hayes family went into logging buisness by buying out PAT CARSON BULLDOZING and were hauling for us out of the CARMANA -WALBRAN area then took over all the logging around 2000. They did have a fleet of ugly green VOLVO's hauling out of the drylands then out of the bush.They are noe out of buisness.

All our HAYES'S came right from the factory. We even went to the factory to see them built. We started buying Hayes's in 1956 with 4 H D side cabs tandem log trucks with Hayes trailers, 12foot bunks, 275 ROLLLS-ROYCE diesels 5+3 trans and 4640- TIMKEN rear ends, 12:00x24 tires. All were purgused direct from the factory. There were quite a few Hayes's built in 75 . Some were carry overs from 74 and some were new orders . It wasn't till late summer of 75 that there was even mention of closure. There were other divisions in our company who started buying Hayes's earlier ,1948 20-19 models. Mainly we were Mack-LMSW-L with some Mack- LMSW-Ms bought from a contractor.

LOUISGBONE: You are wrong as to when Hayes shut down. It was in SEPT, '75, not '74.I got my H D X in OCT 28,'74 and we got our last HAYES H D X in OCT '75. The next trucks to be bought by the outfit were PACIFIC'S. 3 P-16 W's with 3412 CAT V 12's. in 1979. Then no more till 1989 which were 5 PACIFIC's P-16's and 1 CHALLENGER. Hope this clears the air.

high binder: yes there are a few left. one here in my town. tandem flat ,day cab picker boom. also we have one of the first model COE clippers in the truck collection.Have truck show coming in late AUGUST faeturing HAYES's 100 birthday . More than likely will be a lot of them there. The "crow bar" HD model produced between 1948 and 1952 was the start of HAYES's HD popularity. Then in 1952 they designed the HD model which they made till closeing. The two model HDX's were the HDX with 34 inch frame rails for standard trans, and allisson power shift trans and the WHDX which had the 40 inch frame rails to accomedate the CLARK 8000 series power shift trans. I drove a HDX from 1974 till retiement in 2000. Same truck all the time. Started out with 12V-71 with 65 injecters then in 1986 was replaced with CUMMINS KTA525

maybe to stop oil can vibrations from flat sheet metal

My brouchure of a A-54SW shows rad cap on outside of shell behind bulldog. Also a A-54SW log truck in this town in 1954 had rad cap in same place as yours. I know that the A-40 had cap inside of hood but smaller engine so probably smaller rad. The A-51, A55, and A-50 maybe had external caps also because of bigger rads.

with the updraft carb @ 170 hp it's a early 55 or older. middle of 55 they went to a side draft carb @185 hp. also has low chassis number. have fun with it.we had a b-60 in march 55 with updraft carb and second b-60 in may 55 with side draft.both mack yellow log trucks
