41chevy Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 They're made by Bristol Pewter. I'm missing the M-75SX, but do have the the others in the set including the 1910 5 ton, Mack Junior, DM 600 Mixer and the Cruiseliner. Very nice and tough to get. Rarely come up for sale.... ever!!

Doug Maney Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Wasn't the DM mixer a Hardhat model, not a Mack release? I have one of the DM mixers as well, but never thought it was a part of the official Mack set. Quote Interested in Old Trucks?

I'll look under it for the makers mark with a mirror. I got them all when Mineola Mack was bought by Gabrielle in the 80's and all their dead stock was sold off.
