DESCRIPTION:
Five Stars Pictures, specs and production data. Exactly what we were looking for in a reference source.
Also included is a section of surviving "old warriors", mostly restored and preserved for posterity.. There are also other 4x2s and 6x4s, along with 6x6s, 4x4s and 8x8s. Among the models featured are: the Model AC Bulldogs of World War I; the EHs; NMs; and NOs. Vehicles include load carriers, fire and crash trucks, wreckers, refuellers, tank transporters, mobile cranes, dump trucks, buses, prime movers ("Gun Toters"), double-enders, semi-trailers and armoured half-trackers. A pictorial and factual survey of MACK military vehicles of almost every kind, from 1911 to the present day. Of special interest are the ex-Army MACKs, surplussed and readied for civilian employ, some of them metamorphosed beyond recognition, invariably with new cabs and bodywork, diesel engine transplants, chassis conversions and other alterations to suit the operators in countries around the world
