Title: SOLVED: si_760 - Mack - DMM 6x6 - by Langendorf
Post by: sichel on December 29, 2024, 06:58:42 AM: The excavation for the garage foundation easily fits in here.
Manufacturer and type of truck are one question, manufacturer of the ‘wheelbarrow’ is another.

Post by: sichel on January 06, 2025, 04:05:02 PM: Yes, Bill is right, it is a Mack DM, even a DMM.
Locked for Bill for five attempts to find the manufacturer of the body.

If a truck specialist like "Bill d isere" leaves the search to someone else, you can be sure it's a tricky or impossible one. Thanks "Bill d isere" for this nice assignment even though my guess for the base vehicle was incorrect :-X

Anyway back on topic:

Guess#1: Heinrich Hecker KG?

Post by: Alfa_Japan on January 10, 2025, 01:16:22 AM: Langendorf?
Title: Re: si_760
Post by: sichel on January 10, 2025, 05:13:27 AM: Bingo! It is a Mack DMM 6x6 with substructure by Langendorf from Germany. This is your next point.

Post by: Alfa_Japan on January 10, 2025, 05:22:15 AM: @sichel thank you for the point, yet I think the point belongs to my French truck expert pal @Bil d isere since I even had the base vehicle wrong.

Regarding these Mack DM trucks with Langendorf body, there are currently 3 of these vehicles for sale, but then in a 6x4 configuration, on the "Machinery" website. Those vehicles are located in Sontra Germany.

Post by: Bill d isere on January 10, 2025, 07:14:31 AM: I knew there would be better than me here. This point is entirely Alfa's, amply deserved by his research work.

I briefly drove a Mack DM as a tractor in the last century. We were far from today's assisted driving techniques, but boy was it enjoyable!
