Ed, I know you won't want to hear this but, with some care and preparation, I know you can catch most of those draining fluids, not for any reason other than it's the right thing to do. It's so good to see the twins together again. Hope they both turn out nicely.
Lets go Greta!
Fully agree Timothy, atleast ED if you don’t Care about the envioment don’t show it in public
@@KlausLaybourn Oh my god who cares

Probably less toxic than herbicides. I hope you don't buy anything from China!!!
I'm a simple guy, I see a firetruck from the 50s, I watch firetruck from the 50s
I drove the crap out of that truck back in 1989 when I was in recruit school. I really loved how simple it was.
Your channel deserves to go big! Thanks for the update; I'd watched the previous revival of Truck 10; that exhaust note brought back memories...I can't help but wonder what the original Seattle Fire numbers were for these two trucks...From 1969, when we moved to Seattle, 'til '81 when our closest station, 38, replaced the old Mack w/ a new KW w/ (I'm guessing) Detroit 6-71 power, Engine 38 was usually first on scene to any incidents in our various neighborhoods (Hawthorn Hills, Laurelhurst, Ravenna/Bryant--Station 38 was at the top of a very steep hill, on NE 55th and 33rd Ave. NE, and that old rig handled the hills just fine!) Occasionally, the old Mack would turn up to fill in, when the new Engine 38 needed repair/maintenance.
Interestingly, I watched another video of a Mack fire truck (Kleps Garage), that one being in Ohio, and a ladder truck, pretty much still all functional...His truck had the original Mack "Thermodyne" 707 cid six-cylinder gasser, and it sounds entirely different to these Hall-Scott-powered rigs (the H.-S. sounds much deeper and more "rumbly"...Also, I'd imagine the H.S. powerplant had more HP and torque than the 6-71 and 8V-71-powered KW rigs Seattle began to put into service ca. 1970 or so (they also had a few older KWs w/ Hall-Scott power; one ended up in Langley, on Whidbey, as a backup engine).
Glad to see these old beauties getting some TLC and being driven!
These were engine #245 and 246! Awesome that you knew these trucks, everyone thats talked about them have said nothing but good things about these old rigs! Very impressive. These Hall Scott engines were definitely the power house of the era making 350 hp and almost 1000 tq Im told they out performed all the diesels and other gas engines at the time. Thanks for sharing and thank you for watching!
You either have really lenient, or really deaf neighbors man. Loving this truck.
Drove one of these old trucks as a parade truck for a volunteer department. The double clutching is difficult at first, but you'll get the hang of it. Also, you get a little more power with both ignitions on at the same time. Can't beat an old B61. One of my favorite big trucks. But then, I'm kinda impartial to them. 😁 Would love to see these beauties restored to their former glory. Got to love driving the older vehicles. My daily driver is a 1951 Plymouth Cranbrook.
"Double Clutching" is the key to not lugging the engine.
Those WIX sock type oil filters each take a quart of oil. My FWD holds 22 quarts of oil.
Your engine sounds good.
You should have activated the horns.
I live in New Zealand where I was a fire officer an grew up loving fire trucks,your trucks are totally the greatest,thanks heaps for the video
I love these ideas on the firetrucks please keep them coming
love the modern comfort machines as does the next man, but there is something special about reviving old machinery and seeing it run.
A Gorgeous pair of trucks, we also have a pair of sister trucks, 2 1942 Sterling HD110 Navy tractors from WW2, 6SRKR Waukesha flat head gas engines (Both seized beyond repair), they've remained together for over 80 years although one had submitted as a parts truck for the other. On another note we too have a couple Hall-Scott gas engines, 2 480s out of fire trucks (1 seized and the other is the replacement) and a complete V12 defender (think about an engine the size of a VW bug). Great content cant wait to see more!
Thats awesome! We would love to get our hands on a defender! Idk what wed do with an engine that size but theyre really cool! Haha
@@Edward-Thaine Ours will eventually go in a truck, my dad was offered it when looking for a replacement 6 cylinder, certainly a gem, 2281 cu. in. ~700 hp of gas guzzling monster, a true gallons to the mile engine
that video was super, love those old firetrucks, can't wai for your next one and your description was super
Way to go guys, loved your determination, looking forward to more.
good video but next time, think about bringing a can for all this old gazoline ...
Long hood forward is a B71 diesel 671or B70 gas job 707e engine,I love B model mack trucks,it's just something to live for, love a mack truck.
Cool trucks can’t wait to see you detail the inside the cabs and the engines
Imagine people's looks and thoughts rolling down the road in that bad boy.
in our latest video taking it to a gas station the looks we got were great! haha
Nice to see old stuff come back to life,
I hope so and thanks for sharing. Off to work now.
Nice! Looking forward to the next ones! Can't wait to hear the sirens wail!
My friend that's when a machine was a real machine and not a pleasure craft.
Awesome truck great vid .
Awesome video, very cool
Now you see why they went with these massive engines with a massive motor,torque but very smooth to operate. Need to look into seeing if you can fins some original photos.
the department where i started my career had a b85 mack its the first fire truck ever drove back 1987
Live old Mack's
Love the trucks
Awesome 💯👍👍👍👍
Wow! Definition: Patina=Heavily Rusted! Never A Good Look!
Oregon fire truck museum has a mack painted green
Greetings from Delson Québec!
Do a video detailing them washing and polish
you*re good! I like you!
Im glad you got these fire trucks running it would be nice to see if they could eventually be fully restored or maybe even painted i like the looks of old fire trucks my brother in law was a volunteer fire fighter and emt but sadly he passed away in 2019 he hung himself after an argument with my sister i had a fire tattoo done in his honor im guessing these trucks only carried hoses and maybe some shorter latters in back i seen a video where the open cab model actually had an 85 foot latter and was i think 40 feet long or maybe these are trucks that hold water
Hey brother be careful of running ethanol through those engines. Non- ethanol gas would be best👍👍👍
10 percent of ethanol gas will strip the varnish build up from inside the tank. It comes out like cheerleader pom pom ribbons.
I do it everyday all 16 not that bad.
Did you really just dump that old fuel on the ground 😮
It came from the ground
@@zonie1953 try to drink that organic gasoline and let natural selection hapen lol
What do you think happens to all the cars rotting in the woods when the gas tanks finally leak?
@@DeadReckon it destroy environnement.
@@Contribuablevener The planet was here before us, it'll be here after us. All that's gonna be left of us when we're gone is a thin layer of plastic on the fossil layer.
it still boggles my mind those 1091 Hall Scott motors use 4 liters of gas every kilometer, half a mile to the gallon.
Do you plan to do a full repair or restoration? looks like in that area a couple of fire trucks might be handy if a forest fire occurs.
I love old firetrucks!!
👍🇺🇸😎
Who pours gallons and gallons and gallons of gasoline directly on the ground? That is insane.
Good condition for its age
Gasoline runs out of the tank just on the ground in the wood😮😮😮 in Switzerland you get a free entry one way to the jail for that !!!
In my openion and saggistion make a content b mack 21 for cleaning the machene and clean them on preassure wash
Love that motor ,where did the fire fighters sit ,there seems to be only 3 seats ?
Two FFs rode on the back running boards, hanging onto handrails...They did this in Seattle up until 1983 or so, when one FF was flung off while cornering, hit her head, and died. Enclosed cabs for all FFs came along about then, I think.
Called a Beaver Tail, that area behind the hosebed had a solid bar inside a hollow tube the width of the bed. From it four FF were able to ride
I change my oil down by the river
I have a I have a 1954 American of France open cab 700 series fire truck
The 🔔 quit working 😮
lol please dont dump a bunch of old gas on the ground
I know people will probably bust your balls with the gas hitting the ground but it came out of the earth anyway love the trucks
Wow that's nasty.
As much as it sucks seeing fuel or oil dumped on the ground, it's nowhere near what the giant corporations get away with. As Carlin once said "The planet's not going anywhere. WE ARE!"
I'm working on a 53 b75 mack gas engine any info on where I can find hydraulic brake components?? Be much appreciated!!
Im not sure, big mack forum has lots of good info though!
Antique Truck Historical Society (ATHS) is a wealth of knowledge and old timers with knowledge.
A company in St. Clair, MO rebuilds your master cylinder by boring and then sleeving with copper to accept off the shelf size master cyl kits. You wheel cylinders are probably Wagner or Bendix and have casting numbers. Rebuild kits are still available. The co in St. Clair are specialists in hydrovacs.
I always had good luck with parts stores that never threw away the old parts application books. Today with the internet some child behind the counter would rather tell you they don't make it anymore than ask the old guy next to him how to help locate it.
Leave them under the pine tree's they will rot away
Too much, gear bix tight and not performing up to snuff? Should be able to speed shift if possible.
so is this miles per gallon or gallons per mile?
Gallons per mile 😁
Wear the corners off of the tires.....
If you lived in Michigan and drained that gas on the ground and got caught you would be paying big for a clean up
Do you guys own all these?
yes
Why wouldn't they
Why would ever let gas spill on the ground? A minute in and I'm done, poor judgement
Karen
did you forward that fuel on the ground?!
Stop dumping fuel/oil on the ground. That’s horrible pollution. What’s wrong with you?
Karen
Gas/Oil straight on the soil? What the hell, dude…… not cool!
Karen
Там такие деревья растут большие, а вы рабочие жидкости прямо на землю сливаете! Больше деревья расти и радовать людей не будут! Печально….
On the ground? Really? We can do better!
Karen
You sure dump a lot of fluids
