Hi All
My name is Mark (52) but everybody knows me as Gobby. I live in Bodmin Cornwall and although I usually stick to classic cars (prewar MGs) I’m currently restoring a 1944 Mack NM7. My Mack is an ex Rutland snow plough and used to be in the Leicester Council transport museum and was once owned by Dave Crouch. It is currently being returned back to its military guise for the first time since 1947. It still retains its original 12 litre EY petrol engine and I have the original build details from The Mack Museum.
Regards
Gobby

Hi Bill
Quite different beasts really (I’m restoring an NM) with the NO having a different rear suspension set up and a different front axle. NM & NO built at the same time but the NO is a much bigger truck (same engine).
You will find 186 photos of a Mack NO walk around on the link below - they should help you out - very good photos - just keep pressing ‘more photos’ and you can click on each photo to get a bigger version. Hope that helps

Terry Wood - would love to see your NM and know more details etc
If you use Facebook just search Mack NM7 and you will find my restoration page.
