6 ton 6 x 6 Model NM 4 or NM 6
It's the standard council Mack, some had gritter bodies fitted, some carried grit as ballast on the ww2 bed, virtually all hand hand-operated hydraulic pump on the cab floor for the plough.
Super-reliable - only the cost of petrol killed them, and most got junked with just a few hundred miles on the clock because of salt corrosion and petrol price.
NM3 had hard cabs, NM4 and NM6 had open cabs which councils tinned-over
