    Ain't that the truth!

    A Haldex RW2000X reman water pump may help you out. See if you can compare factory casting #'s. The 711 is a Thermodyne engine. https://www.haldex.com/en/na/water-pumps/mack-/end-673-675-676--e-6-engine/rw2000x/

    Heavy iron for Worcester Sand and Gravel.

    Interesting tank and step configuration on the tandem units.

    Nice bit of information! If you have a friend (or a helpful enemy) in the police dept. or DMV, they could possibly try running the info and see if the VIN is still out there. Good luck in your search.

    Using the name Maverick is probably better than bringing back the Pinto name.

    Would be more interesting if it still was a tandem axle tractor as originally built.

    Classic lines of a work ready truck.

    No bushing that I remember. Things may be just tired from lots of shifting. In the tower there is a large spring which pushes up on the stick. The tip of the stick that goes into the trans. is rectangular in shape with slight radius where it fits into the shifting rails of the trans. The tower spring could be weak making it seem sloppy? If the tip of the stick is badly worn you could get a better used stick. Hopefully the slot in the shifter rails are not badly worn, that will require a bit of work to change out. Remove the cap screws and pull the stick. See what you have got going on.

    Good score! Disc brakes were an available option.

    You getting this one too? 😀

    Nice pics of dogs getting dirty! Load to the top of the sideboards and then some.

    Yup, the AP six cylinder engine was developed in 1926. It was used in fire equipment, buses and the model AP heavy duty dumps and rock trucks.

    Use regularly available pump diesel and add Power Service.

    I will speculate that it is a late 20's Mack type 15 fire truck utilizing the 150 HP Mack AP gasoline engine.

    Good looking trucks shown at Ballston Spa 2018.

    Ford sure is shooting a lot of darts...

    No Kemp connection that I know of. Fellow in Mass. had the truck and my recollection is that he got it from a well drilling outfit that had used it or was planning on mounting equipment for the trade. Then about 15 years ago, the quad cab found a new home in Redding, CT where it is now for sale.

    Here is a picture of the above green quad cab when it was with a previous owner. Sorry for the picture quality.

    New decoration for the man cave.

    Dr. Detroit and a different type of Motown sound!

    Nice clean look!

    Maybe he passed them! The story goes that the rain west of Utica got pretty nasty and the traffic slowed down so the speed differential was pretty close. I can't imagine making the trip on 90. I would have used 5 or 20 both ways!

    Bet there were several stops to top off the tank!

    It has been around the block a few times. The previous owner was on BMT for a bit. Some pics show Bud wheels, some spoke or a mix of the two. https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32507-37-mack-ej-wrecker-rare-model/ https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33172-ej-model/
