A little while ago I was looking for pictures of the Mack NO 7.5 ton 6x6 Prime Mover for a future build to go along with my 155mm Long Tom. After searching the net to no avail, I contacted none other than the Mack Museum of whom were happy to oblige.
They sent me a huge envelope loaded with pictures and techincal info along with some line drawings of the Mack NO 3, 6, and 7!
What a terrific surprise.
They also sent some pictures of some rather unusual trucks that I think will be of some interest to our local Gunnie or perhaps Animal.
I scanned a few of the pics to show them off here. Maybe the pics of the Mack T8 will spark a scratchbuild.
Enjoy.

Naturally - I want EVERYTHING they gave you!

Thanks for posting these pic's! Dang now I have to pay the local hobby shop
another visit.

Cheers,

me to please ken

Hmmmmm...did I say Merry Christmas?...and that I am in need of your address, for the Xmas card i'm sending you...very nice...very nice indeed.

hehe

I would be happy to send you each copies of all the material I received. Just PM me with your addresses and I get em out to you lickety split!

In the mean time, here's two more to pique your interest:

Animal wants pictures of trucks!!!! #:-) I would love some of the 8X8 truck. This looks very interesting.

Hmmm... Since I posted these pics last evening, I've received 14 requests for copies! Okay, I have access to a copier - at work, but I just can't run off that many copies since there are close to 30 pages per copy.
What I will do in the next day or two, is scan all the pages, upload them, and provide the link to which you all can download to your heart's content.
I do hope this is acceptable for all interested.
Thoughts?

I forget who it was but either ADV or Azmith made a resin kit of it a 10 years ago, had one but don't have it any longer. Cost was about $125. Was a pretty decent kit, just needed a bit of work, and modeling skills for a decent model. Haven't seen the kit in at least 5 years.

Hi Ken,

Can you send me all this interesting documents?
If U are planning to build an Mack No there is good pics on Tanksheaven from a preservated Mack NO in Marshall Museum (Netherland=Holland)
No I'am working on the Azimut kit.
Cheers

All,
I have had great luck with the Mack Museum as well. They sent me a whole packet of line drawings, photos, etc for a M123A1C 10-ton tractor as well. They were very generous and happy to send it. Thanks again to the Mack Museum.

Hello Gino
I like the work in your showcase, would it be possible for you to scan the whole packet for the M123A1C 10-ton tractor as well. I would would really appreciate it if you could please.
cheers

Wow, this post is near 10 years old. Give me a day and I will dig up the papers they sent me and I will re-up them.

Great work there Michael.
