Quote:1962 Mack C-85, canopy cab, 750/500. It was purchased at a price of $22,000, Mack diesel, 5-speed manual transmission. It was rehabed by Swab in 1982 for $38,000. The pump may have been upgraded from a 750 to a 1000. It sustained minor damage on 6/16/92 when it was parked to close to a working barn fire. The officer side got scortched. It was sent to a local paint shop to get it back in service as soon as possible since the 1971 Mack CF was still out of service at this time. It was sold in 7/93 to a dealer in Al who sold it to Cullman, AL to become there first piece.
The City of Cullman, AL has had a fire department for many, many years. This Mack would have to have gone to one of the small VFD's with a Cullman mailing address. Was the dealer involved called "Good Hope"? They are located in Cullman. I've photographed several Mack C's in Alabama over the years, recording the serial numbers on most. Do you have the number for the former Parkesburg rig?
