bulldogboy Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 When I see all your Mack photos from the museum I think that it's a shame that the FDNY Super Pumper and Tender didn't end up there. They certainly were a one of a kind Mack product. bulldogboy 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53647-1955-mack-b60x-dump-truck/#findComment-401160 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx for posting Jim- I KNEW I should have gone to Museum last week. I have seen pix of this B-60X before. I believe this is a Matt Pfahl restoration and he has had it in some of his ads. In any case I looked at chassis no. and guess what-my B is chassis is 3731! I refer to mine as a B-61X as at some point in time it was converted from the EN 464A/TRDX670, to I believe a 673/TRD 720, and then eventually the 673 was replaced with the current ENDT 675. My front axle is the same FA 519, the rear is also a RAD 111 and according to build sheet was same 9.05 ratio (current is 6.07). As my build sheet indicates it was delivered to the Boston branch, and as it indicates original color was green, I wonder as close as these chassis numbers are if my truck was also a Derenzo order. All of my records also indicate the truck is a 56 vs a 55 so as the Derenzo chassis no. is 3 numbers higher than mine, something doesn't foot. No dates on the build sheet. 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53647-1955-mack-b60x-dump-truck/#findComment-401199 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is nice that it survived and might just have to make a trip to Michigan to check it out.

j hancock Posted June 24, 2018 Author Share Posted June 24, 2018 Pretty KooL Bob to have the specs be the same and the trucks take the same path. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

I am waiting over 3 years for him to make good on the second one. Mike.

Maddog13407 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 i think that was one of Matt Pfahl's first restorations. that's the truck Franklin Mint modeled the yellow B61 dump truck and diorama after. maybe not his first cause Jane Anne was but know it was in the first batch along with a B42 fire tanker truck.
