Howie - these old shots are awesome!!!! I hope you will share some more soon!!!!


Massachusetts Fire Apparatus - Guest - 07-01-2008

Will see what I can do. I think I can muster up a few more.

Great stuff Howie! I wouldn't mind seeing more as well, the Gloucester stuff is truely awesome. If I'm correct that Pirsch tiller is the one that was later paired up with the 1966 Mack B tractor which now pulls the 1985 LTI.

I don't have alot of info on the older north shore rigs since I am not a native "oniontowner" (from Danvers.) Any help is appreciated though.



Here are a few more. I'll be away for a few days - but will try to get some more posted while I can.
