Cool picture, judging by the cab & fenders it looks more like a MACERPILLAR. Thanks for sharing the photo ROY
Yep thats a neat set up for the job at hand, they built better rat rods back then! 😆😎
That's pretty awesome! Probably not going to whip out and and pass anyone but props for cobbling together a creative solution back in the day. 5.1L isn't much motor either. Thanks for sharing the pic. I wonder what the history of the truck is? Where? Who? Why? Anyone that knew is probably gone by now.

What do we think that round hub-looking thing behind the rear wheel is?
looks like the landing wheel for the 'trailer'.
I believe the truck is a Mack AB. Looks like it fits together pretty well.
That's really a good looking rig. I wonder if it still exists today. It would be a wonderful show piece.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
