Yes it does, looks like the same day & same photographer. I have a few of these from the same area with no credit on the photos. Jerry Bell was on a list of photo credits. It did not specify what exact photo (if there were more than one of the same rig)

I would like to know who took the photos so I can put this information on the scan. This is one of the reasons I post them, also any vehicle information is a help.

Bensonville IL 1975 Pierce Imperial # I-633 LTI

I think that I may have posted a Pierce-LTI photo of the same rig previously.

Well, The chassis were pemfab. But as it was told to me by the Ret. Lt. Nowhere on the chassis decal did it say Imperial In the original specs it was a pemfab chassis

Pierce may have removed the Pemfab decals. I do know that other manufactures have done this.

Any ideas where these are now?

Bill F May know. But the Tower was replaced in 1998 with another Pierce and the engine was replaced around the same time. I left Bensenville in 1993.

Anybody have a pic of the 1973ish rear-mount Truck 313 from Owings Mills VFC of Baltimore County. It was Grove aerial with Imperial bodywork.

Interesting. Thanks. Answered a few questions I have had. Now I get the term "Cincinnati Cab" as well.

TCM has supplied cabs to most major manufacturers of fire apparatus for many years. Many of those cabs have their id tags somehwere in the cab but I also understand that some don't. TCM web site is http://www.truckcab.com/
