Nice job Sam! Sure is crazy seeing every firstline number on an International medic now. Will have to start getting used to that.

Sam, swing by 52. I painted the wheels black. It looks pretty tough.

Who's building the boxes on the Internationals? Those look really nice.
Trav!

definitely Horton. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Well if Horton were to sweep the country, then Allied Specialty Vehicles (they own the E\-One, AEV, Wheeled Coach, Road Rescue and Horton brands) will be a very happy company indeed.

Thanks guys, I thought they looked like Horton, but I wasn't 100% sure... I had no idea ASV owned Horton, I thought they "owned themselves" but I know, a lot of that behind the scenes stuff goes on with companies, I just had no idea.

There are very few independently owned ambulance manufacturers in operation. One example is PL Custom/Rescue 1 which remains under 100% family owned and controlled business.

I had no clue. I've always liked the way the Horton boxes look, and it's what I kind of grew up seeing. ...interesting information - thank you!

I would have to agree with you on the light set-up you like. I Love rear lightbars on the box along with clear LED's.

Not that I was ever aware of. Pierce at one time in the early to mid 1980's did construct the raw aluminum body module for Horton. Somewhere in my mess of negatives I have several shots of Horton boxes lined up outside the "41 Plant" in Appleton ready for shipment.

Just to let everyone know, there will be a BCFD "Fire Apparatus Photo Shoot" on Sat July 23rd at @ 3 PM at The 414 Fire Museum on Gay Street. If you was there the last time, you know its a good time, and a great spot for Posed BCFD Fire Apparatus.

Me and a friend are attending this,what king of turnout from bcfd is there??
Baltimore City Fire Department - Fire28 - 07-19-2011
However much we can get moved there, amongst all the usual calls and such. The quicker the rigs get photographed, the quicker they leave and a new 1 shows up.
Baltimore City Fire Department - Guest - 07-19-2011
Assiit Chief Heibuch typically will call and ask what we want. Pm hungrybus or bfd photo guy and ask they are running it.
Baltimore City Fire Department - Guest - 07-20-2011
Is the shoot still going on even if it's 100 degrees like they keep saying?
