  John you’re probably right it might be an MC. However Mack stopped producing the MC along time ago. It was the lighter duty version of the MR. The MC was too light duty for refuse applications.

  I believe it is the Mack MC chassis. Milwaukee had a bunch of them. They were the replacement for the MB chassis. Mack still makes the MC, but mostly for refuse trucks. John.

  It’s either a MC or MR. It’s the replacement for MB. Cool rig though. I used to drive an MR, thing turned on a dime.

  Last time I saw a photo of that truck it was just a cab and chassis.
