An AC Mack. My dad had a friend who used one (with a second one for parts) at his gravel pit up through the mid-1970's. He used it every once and awhile when his equally ancient Northwest dragline would pull a really huge rock out of his gravel run- one that had been pushed there and left a few millennia ago by a melting glacier- and into the old Mack it would go.
