I found this Mack sitting on the side of Newport Hwy outside of Sevierville, TN on Saturday.

Benjy, I'd be willing to be this is Chassis # 1333. I shot it in Oak Ridge, TN sitting at a car lot back in early 2007. Back then, it appeared to have been freshly painted and possibly being restored. It looks pretty rough now! I've posted it a few times on here, but nobody has any idea where it came from. Maybe somebody has figured out where it came from by now...hopefully?

Ran up on Former Charleston W.Va Eng 9 (Or maybe Engine 7...or...Both?) in, of all places Ivor Va. The rig was at All American Auto Parts, the same place I found Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock's old 700 Series ladder.



The sun peaked from behind the clouds at just the right moment.

Pump Panel. the rig had an Akron Foam System installed.

And the reason I wasn't sure where this rig last saw action. It apparently was both Engine 9 and Engine 7 at some point in it's history.





   



If ya look at the Stations and apparatus page on the Charleston W Va Website, there are a couple of shots of ALF Centuries with the same graphics.

I found this truck Saturday morning on Highway 27 West about 10 miles west of Lincolnton, NC. Sorry no drivers side shot because of the large dog on that side. The only information I could get from the guy next door was it was a 1958 Dodge and it came from the Cleveland Community FD near Statesville, NC.

Here is my contribution to the thread. Went to South Jersey for Thanksgiving to spend time with the in-laws. I found this one from Glassboro at the intersection of Route 40 and Route 55. It was lettered as Glassboro, a community near this location.
