BCFD Medic 11 2011 International 1 of 8 [/quote] 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.

looks like Horton to me [/quote] definitely Horton. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='  ' />) I wish Horton would just sweep the country. hahaha. can't you tell I'm a Horton fan? I was crushed when Lex fire moved away to Braun and now Excellance. The Baltimore boxes look good, but clear LEDs, and maybe a lightbar in the rear (in addition to the existing lights) would be even better.

People complaining about spam in the spam mail box... Huh, what'll they think of next?
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.

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 Love rear lightbars on the box along with clear LED's.
Wasn't Horton owned by Pierce Years ago?? <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ambulance.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

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.
Mechanical engineers build weapons, whereas civil engineers build targets.
When the man at the door said," Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms", I, naturally assumed it was a delivery! 
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.

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.

Assiit Chief Heibuch typically will call and ask what we want. Pm hungrybus or bfd photo guy and ask they are running it.
Is the shoot still going on even if it's 100 degrees like they keep saying?
