I am a long time member of the Milwaukee Fire Historical Society.  We own several fire trucks to include shop built, Peter Pirsch and a 49 Mack model B open cab pumper. It is currently in a local body shop.

It will need a complete rewiring.  I owned a 55 Peter Pirsch pumper for 10 years.  Compared to a commercial truck / car, the wiring was straight forward / simple.

Where does one obtain wiring diagrams?  Board members directly responsible may also inquire.  Assistance is appreciated.

B's started in 1953.  Maybe an L model?

Here is a pdf of a commercial B wiring diagram.  The link will get you there.  Obviously there will be some fire only wiring that will be specific to your truck vs. a commercial chassis.

It doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

 Go into the BMT WIKI section (enter through the "BMT WIKI Button" on the header.) You'll find B model wiring diagrams in the  Antique & Classic Mack Info  section
