"the Green Phantom" had a 500 GPM bumper pump when I shot it years ago, looks to still be there. That Dodge is older than 1976, maybe a 1966?

MY MISTAKE ON THE YEAR. IT WAS A TYPO IT SHOULD BE 1967. IS THE GREEN PHANTOM THE GMC ENGINE?

"The Green Phantom" is the Dodge (written on the front fender).

Interesting. This is either an older Ward LaFrance body, or a damn good copy of one! I have never heard of Hayden before, so I did a little research. There is a company in Darien, IL of that name who has been involved in the fire protection business since 1947. I wonder if they were the WLF dealer back in the day, kinda like Fire Fox was down in Houston?

I HAVE AT LEAST ONE OTHER LISTED AS A HAYDEN. IT WAS A FORD TANKER FROM THE 70'S AT SOUTH STRABANE TWP. (WASHINGTON COUNTY). THAT ONE WAS A STAINLESS STEEL ELLIPTICAL TANK.

This is a Ward LaFrance purchased from McCormick Fire Equipment in the 70's.

I have no idea other that someone who may have done some work on it. I just remember when it was purchased back when I was in PA. Dick McCormick had sold this Ward LaFrance unit and a Ford front mount engine to Oklahoma FD around the same time.
