Mack F-900 15 yd Challenge mixer. Long gone Certified Industries, NYC.
IH Paystar CMC mixer
Looks like new again. Fla Rock used it in Tallahassee for 6 months, sent it to Gainesville to get fixed up and painted and they kept it another year.

Diamond Reo Giant C-1166B Duetz air cooled engine. Guys told me it would run 80mph. Too fast for a concrete truck in my opinion. Used it only a few months and saw it in Orlando at Fla Rock's for sale lot a year later. 6 months later it was gone.

More of the mud.
Me driving the other day. FSU campus in Tallahassee after a day of rain. Fun, Fun, Fun
80's Pete 348
80's Pete 348 MTM Tuck Away mixer. This was MTM's answer to the patented Challenge Boost a load. MTM purchased Challenge in the late 80's and the Tuck Away was discontinued.
60's Mack H-81 10yd Rex mixer.
Can anyone identify the mixer? A Smith maybe? Never seen a front pedestal quite like that. Hard to tell about the rear.

Mack DM, 10yd Challenge mixer
Mack RL, typically a weight saving western truck, this one was originally a boost-a-load set up but the mixer was replaced with this Smith, a 300gal water tank behind the cab and a tag axle fitted behind the tandems. What the heck, it works.
