Popular Post Great White Posted Sunday at 11:15 PM Popular Post Share Posted Sunday at 11:15 PM Hello all: We have a chance to acquire a well used Mack AC. It is rough but the engine is not stuck. It last ran in 1980. One rear tire needs new rubber. There are data plates on the seat riser that are not readable. How can we tell what capacity it has and how much it might weigh? Where can we get more information to see if this is a good fit for our vintage fleet before we pull the trigger? I believe that it hauled logs back in the day and has some local history. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74736-1926-mack-ac-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Contact Gary Mahan at the Mahan foundation in Basking Ridge NJ. He and his people probably have the most information on AC Macks in the country. At least they can tell you where to look for more numbers. Once you have a serial number, then contact the Mack Museum in Allentown PA and they can likely send you more information about who originally bought it. 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74736-1926-mack-ac-help/#findComment-561683 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truckcrazy Posted Monday at 01:43 AM Share Posted Monday at 01:43 AM The serial number should be stamped on the top of the frame rail at the front when you lift the hood. It’s about 7 numbers long. Need truck. You should buy it. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74736-1926-mack-ac-help/#findComment-561684 Share on other sites More sharing options...
