Description
1955 MACK LTL with Cummins NHS supercharged engine
Part restored, very rare Mack LTL.
West coast “lightweight” model with aluminium suspension mounts, chassis cross members and other parts.
All hard work done. Needs prep and painting, trim, glass and door furniture to be put back in, interior to be done and wiring and fuel line put in. Plus any personal touches you want to add.

Losing my storage in 2026 so sadly it needs to go and it would be great to see it finished and on the road!
Happy to speak to genuinely interested parties. I may be able to arrange transport. Not currently running as engine needs wiring, plumbing and priming plus throttle reconnected
Real presence and a real bit of American trucking history
Have factory build sheet from the Mack museum in Philadelphia (they also have links to parts suppliers) and the parts and operating manuals for the truck and engine
