The Columbia George Museum in Stevenson, Washington has some logging equipment.
1921 Mack AC Log Truck
The Mack AC was the first to carry the name “Bulldog” which is from the French-style hood. It is powered by a 40 hp, 471 cubic inch gasoline engine. The radiator is mounted behind the engine rather than in front. The engine is started with a hand crank.
It has a top speed of about 17 mph. It has hard rubber tires and a chain drive.
Shown above is the hood.
Shown above is one of the well-worn hard rubber tires.
