Yes it would. I'm talking to the owner now and trying to get it sitting in my driveway

[1958 F.W.D.]

I think I have seen this one before- if it is one in the same, it is an ex-FDNY rig and is only geared to do top speed 43mph +/-

For that money, it would be cheap to regear it. I suppose it is a 237?

I'm not sure... If it's a 1971 and the body is original, it's not a FDNY spec body for the year. in the early '70's I'm nearly positive that the drivers side would have had compartments as low as the officers side and there would have been two or three lengths of hard suction over the wheel well. I don't think FDNY started buying Mack engines with full height driver side compartments until the Ward79's much later on. I could be wrong though so feel free to correct me.

Ya It's a 237 and governs out at 55 but I have a higher gear rear end if I need more speed

Ok if thats the original body then it absolutely is NOT FDNY.
