  2. Thanks for the info. I called them today. They have one on the shelf, but will rebuild mine for about $200. I am checking on a couple other options but will send it to him if they do not come through. Mike.
  3. Thanks for the number. I'll give them a call tomorrow. Cal Little said he'd look through his stuff but doubted he had one and doesn't know anyone who rebuilds them. Mike.
  4. This coil looks like a little grenade. My mechanic replaced it with a finned coil like I have on my LS85. Me said the original coil was barely making a spark. I assume my mechanic would know if it is open or not. I do not know what that means. Matt Pfahl said they will cut open the old coils and put a new one inside but mine is not the same shape. Gary Mahan had no suggestion. I'll call Cal next Thanks for the reply. Mike.
  5. The coil for my 1925 AC fire truck has gone bad. I can't immagine there is a spare around. It says North East Electric Co Rochester NY. With a patent date of 1919. So with that not being likely has anyone ever had a coil rewound? Who would do it? My local generator shop doesn't. Matt Pfahl and Gary Mahan had no suggestions. Thanks. Mike.
  6. That is quite a project. Someone posted a sleeper cab L mode in similar condition in the U.K. a few years back. It had remnants of yellow paint. I think he became overwhelmed by the scope of the project. I wonder if this is the same truck. Good luck with it. Mike.
  7. This bumper looks just like the bumper I posted. Square fog light holes and all. It looks nice in the pictures.
  8. There are plenty of people on here who know a lot more about Superliners than I do. Post you questions in the Antique section above and you will get your answer. It won't let me post the bumper photos either but it looks nice. The must be too large for the format. Mike.
  9. $400 doesn't sound bad. I was very happy with $260. If you email them to me I will post them. yarnallvmd@hotmail.com. Mike.
  10. I did but I would like one without fog light holes. This one will do if I don't find one. Mike.
  11. There was just an NOS chrome plated steel bumper with fog light holes on ebay for $265. It was labeled as an MH bumper. If you are in that ballpark I'll take it. Mike.
  12. I bought it for my B62 tow truck. Thanks for posting it. Mike
  13. I spoke with Art Cooper about putting starters on old Macks. He uses a Mack ring gear, Delco MT40 starter and cuts the bell housing. He was selling parts to do this, but sold everything to Gary Mahan. You might be able to get the parts from Gary. Art would be happy to speak to you about this. I can message you his number if you want it. Mike
  14. My father used Admiral Merchants to have his RL712 shipped from CA to PA and was very happy. Mike.
  15. Nice. I'd love a rollback but I'm sure it will be out of my price range. Mike.
  16. My AC is a fire truck so it already has a starter. Art Cooper, the guy who does the restorations for John Haines, has ring gears made and out on then he uses GM starters. He has done it with several AB and ACs. I could get you more information if you are interested. Neat truck. Keep the pictures coming. Mike.
  17. My CF 719 had a two speed spicer hooked to the twin turbo 864 when it was built. It gave the department so much trouble they considered junking the whole truck. They replaced it with an Allison. Andy Lieder too a V8 out of a CF to put in the tractor that pulls the super pumper. If the CF had a spicer in it you might be able to get it from him. Mike.
  18. Here is one in EBay. $2000. https://m.ebay.com/itm/Eager-beaver-trailer-lowboy-fontaine-talbert-Rogers-general-single-axle-fix-neck/253225122426
  19. My father's boss told me when Mack came out with the Magnum they kept having problems with them. They kept running into slower trucks.
  20. I think that is Chalmers' truck. If it is it is still in his garage in Cashtown. I tried to buy it but it is not for sale.
  21. My father has a binder full of B model spec sheets that he got from Mack as a kid. I wish he had kept the letters that came with them.
  22. I didn't even know you could read yet alone write like that. I thought that was why you had all those Mack part numbers memorized. Anyway, great story. Now it is time to write one about Gunkel Smith and his descendants. Michael.
  23. The Boyertown Museum had two of these and sold one. I tried to buy it but someone with more connections got it. I think they only got $3500 for it.
  24. He is on the Mack Museum advisory board and has been talking about the update. He is working on it. Hopefully it happens.
