Mack Trucks Museum

2402 Lehigh Parkway South, Allentown, PA 18103 (map it)

Mack Trucks Museum, Allentown PA

What year did the Mack Senior model debut? When was the first Mack diesel engine produced? When did Mack adopt a bulldog as its mascot? Or a little closer to home: What transmission was outfitted on your grandfather's 1940 Mack? If you've got questions - and perhaps a vehicle identification number - there's a pretty good chance the Mack Museum has the answer in their archives. In addition to being the authority on all things Mack, the Mack Museum also restores and preserves vintage Mack trucks and memorabilia for all to enjoy. Visit website >
