I just saw enough of it here to know it's a Mack F-Series with a really thin cab. |

Between the big GM with the stubby wheelbase and the giant Mack with the tiny cab, there are two very cartoonishly proportioned trucks here. |

It could be also a Brockway version? -- Last edit: 2016-05-01 19:58:52 |

Brockway versions are pretty rare. I don't know if they had them with lifted cabs above the front wheels, though. |

I've done some research on web and I noticed that the Brockway cab overs may have existed only on semi truck versions, I can't find any pictures of them on a mixer. And even semi trucks are rare as you said before. -- Last edit: 2016-05-12 13:00:12 |

Looks very familiar with this one from Wikipedia? So this can be a Mack F-900? Another one from Flickr (Model "F995SX with Rex mixer body" mentioned by the uploader). -- Last edit: 2016-05-12 13:22:13 |

Ddey65 is right, these are Mack F-900's and they belonged to a company called Certified Industries that was based on New York City, these are some other additional links to confirm about: •Hankstruckforum •Scale model on www.allreadymix.com •www.allreadymix.com Link 2 •www.allreadymix.com Link 3 (Following the 3rd link) •Some pics from Flickr: Source Source Source |
