I took this photo recently in Speyer, Germany. It's a Mack that was used at a local quarry. It looks like an M-75, but what is it exactly? The engine data they give seems dubious to me (8 cyl, 850 hp, 27L displacement - 35 t curb weight, 55 t net load). And here's a Kaelble for good measure.

Dear Christian: Trucks Planet has an excellent info on the Mack M-Series (Matchbox and Zylmex issued one,and the site helped me to identify them),including brochures with dimensions,specs and all. See below: www.trucksplanet.com/ Nick K

Thank you Dwight (totally forgot about Ralph's kit!) and Nick. So far, the trucksplanet site confirms my suspicion that the data doesn't add up.

The orange one with the single axle and a 55 ton rating would be the M55. Ralph sells the M65 and the twin screw M75. I'll be posting some photos of the M65 in my completed thread. If you know the capacity (GVW) of the M series Mack in question, then you automatically know it's model #.
