Firebuster Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) I'm a retired Richmond, Va. Firefighter originally from Western Pa. I'm looking for one Mack in particular. It is a 1955, maybe a '56. It was owned by Evans City, Pa. and was bought way back then with Civil Defense monies in the '50's. It was in service with the Evans City Volunteer Fire Department until 1981 or 1982 when it was replaced and sold to the highest bidder. The borough lost many records in a flood in 2004 and so far we haven't been able to find a thing like registration, serial numbers or who the high bid was. We believe it went to a used apparatus dealer in the south, possibly Texas. We believe it was then sold to a volunteer fire department in West Texas possibly. We have very little to go on other that a couple of pictures. Anyone know how to find an old Mack that has been lost for 30 + years?

cf685f Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Sorry, I grew up in NWPA and am a Mack Firetruck guy and haven't seen it. Did they have a lime green CF at one time?

Firebuster Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 No Lime Green anything. Red until this was replaced with a Yellow Sutphen.
