yarnall Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Here are two D models from the Mack Museum. The green one is for sale if anyone is looking for a project. They also have one they restored inside but I could not find a photo.

Doug Maney Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 What you have there is a second-styling D-model. In 1956 the design was modified to improve the truck including the trim band around the cab and the rear corner windows. The Verti-lift cab could be raised manually or by optional the optional electric pump. A total of 832 D-series were produced between 1955 and 1958. Yours seems to have all of the necessary items, the front grill dish and the side Bulldog emblems. Make sure you keep them secure. My gallery has additional photos of my D-42. If you decide not to progress with the project, let me know. 1 Quote Interested in Old Trucks?
