You are correct. I spent alot of time in that old 'Scope. It's still around in a neighboring county. Interesting note - all3 FD's that have owned it - West Trenton, South Lynches, and Clarendon - all operate white apparatus.

Did Baker or Mack build this rig that way, or was the pump added on the re-furbing ??

It was built and delivered by Mack with a Pump, and was the first Aerialscope with this option. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/3_12_21.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Chatham, Virginia is located between Danville and Lynchburg.
They operated this Mack CF aerialscope as their Ladder 21.
It was a 1970 Mack CF600/Baker 75' with serial number 1128.
Ex- FDNY L107 and L164. MT7103.
Replaced with a Pierce ladder several years ago and from what I understand the Mack is now privately owned outside of Virginia.

I don't know who put the pump on it. But i do know after they had it a while, the frame sagged and it had to be sent out to re-enforce it. The pump was installed when purchased new.
