It was known as "The General Ike". Originally red. Owned by Larry Taylor
[/quote]
That is not owned by Larry Taylor , it is owned by a man who lives in Winter Park FL, he is ex Westchester County NY. It is at that location for a few years now for the repaint back to red and restore. Will make it to FL at some point. It is called " The General Ike because the President himself comissioned the rig in 1957. I belive that it was at his summer hometown and was on duty for aircraft landings. I was told by the owner that is the only President to comission a fire engine to this day ! My B-95 is a few # away and is also a 1957 and both rigs are in the B-Model Mack Fire book by Harvey!

Gettsburg also named their steamer the General Meade and I thought that the L was named after another general. Not sure. I knew President Eisenhower commissioned it. As for the B-Model, last month, I was told it was at Lady & Taylor, I was told he had it there. I wasnt told that it was being refurbed. Its nice that it is being restored though.

Re-size it.

same problem as me, dont have the software. Any recommendations?

Open it in the paint program on your computer. Top bar says image, scroll down to resize/reskew. In it, it will say resize. I always do 50/50, and then repeat the process doing 50/50 again. It should be a good size for posting then.

Engine 10 got a 1983 Mack High Pressure (3 stage) pumper after this. The Lime Mack went to Engine 4 and was one of 2 that were painted Red & White. It went on to become a spare and then sold from FDNY to Frenchtown, NJ.

One of 3 to be repainted , as said engine 4, engine 45, and engine 46 also.

One of my favorite B-Models. 1953 B-85. Arnold Engine No. 2. Served until 1976 when the engine seized. They borrowed New Kensington's 1949 L-Model for a a year until their new 1977 Mack CF was delivered. The pump and the body from this rig ended up on the 1958 B-Model chassis that No. 1 bought.

[/quote] Do you mean a comm chassis, then added the fire body and pump to make a engine out of it ?
