Production of the MB ended in 1978. Were there no dataplates/stickers in the cab? Depending on the actual year, there should have been Howe or Grumman ID, as well as a Mack plate under the dash.

There were no stickers or data plates anywhere on that truck to speak of, 3 of us climbed all over it trying to find the build plate.. there wasn't even a Howe tag on it, I only know it is a Howe because Patrick commented on the picture on Facebook LOL.

Information was obtained from the driver who pulled everything out, having said that I defer to your knowledge on this.. if you show 1,750 pumps than I am going to go with that!

I have the rig listed as a 1975 in the Truck Records from New Lexington while I was employed there..... The Crew Cab Enclosure was done by 4-Guys shortly before Bill Love retired and started New Lexington with the Saylor Brothers.....

Mechanical engineers build weapons, whereas civil engineers build targets.
When the man at the door said," Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms", I, naturally assumed it was a delivery!

Thanks a bunch Tim, I knew someone would have the record on it with the official information... this piece is currently for sale if anyone is interested. They are looking to get $16,000 out of it, includes hard sleeves and generator.

Potomac Heights in Charles County, Maryland had a 1991 Pierce Dash, E71, 1250/500 that I believe they recently sold to Newburg, also in Charles County.
