1955 MACK TRUCK/TRACTOR B30
Before we tell you about the details of the fantastic restoration on
this 1955 Mack truck/tractor B30, first we would like to tell you about the
first owner. It was VB King who used the
truck to use trailers in his company yard. (Note this vehicle never saw any heavy use). The second owner used it very little. Finally, the third and current owner has
owned this car for close to 50 years and before retirement used this Mack B30
for light farm work.
Secondly we would like to tell you about the gentleman who restored this
truck. He is a true perfectionist as can
easily be seen in the details of the restoration. This gentleman restored this truck in the
late 1990s or early 2000s. He traveled extensively
through the USA and Canada to locate original parts for the restoration. Fortunately for this very rare truck this gentleman
did much of the work himself as it would have been much more expensive to give
it to a restoration shop at the current labor rate of $75 - $125 per hour.
Now to let you know about this truck and its restoration. The truck has its original six cylinder
engine and manual transmission that were totally rebuilt and are in excellent
running condition. Note the 68, 034 miles
on the odometer, although not documented the current owner believes these to be
the original mileage.
Here at MissChiTown we get a lot of pickup trucks that we market for
other collectors on eBay but this is the first time that we have had a tractor/truck
and what an amazing truck it is!!! The
gentleman who owned the truck and had used it on his farm for some light farm
work, after he retired decided to restore the truck to one of the most
beautiful Mack trucks in the world. He
tells us that he had restored it to like brand new condition. (We find it hard to believe that a brand new
Mack truck could have looked this good)! Again, the man who restored this truck was a stickler for details due to
his perfectionist personality.
It is interesting to note that since the truck was restored, this truck
has not only NOT seen any bad weather but has not seen any water – period! It is only dusted off when the blankets come
off. The truck of course is kept in a
heated garage covered with blankets.
Again, the history is that the current owner purchased the Mack B30 from
the second owner who used it very little. The original owner only used it to move around trailers in the company
yard and again it never received any heavy use. The current owner restored the Mack in its original green paint color both
on the exterior and interior. As stated
previously the Mack B30 was totally disassembled and sand blasted and
completely refinished to the original colors. You can certainly see in the photos the high quality restoration. The owner methodically starts this truck once
a month to keep it in great running condition. The truck was last driven last summer as we previously stated the
private seller only drives it in nice weather.
So, if you have a museum or you collect trucks or have always wanted to
have one of the most unique trucks with one of the finest restorations then
this may be the pièce de résistance for your collection. Tractor/trucks are big and hard to restore
and very expensive to say the least. The
owner of this tractor/truck has placed a very low reserve on this truck that
undoubtedly would not pay for even 25% of the restoration costs if done at a
professional restoration shop at around $100 an hour. It is a very, very rare opportunity!!!
The truck is located in CANADA about 150 miles from Detroit, MI USA
