Hahn...post them if you got them.
Quote:Compaired to hundreds of Hahn cabs, or Thousands of others builders cabs like Mack, Pierce I think 40 would be a few.



When you look at it like that, Frank, I guess you're correct. This subject has come up several times before and the point I was trying to make was that the big name "experts" had said that there were only about 20 of them built, but my research has confirmed more than twice that number. There are still 3 or 4 more that could be out there that I haven't been able to confirm whether they were 84's or 84/92's or 92's.

Anyone know the whereabouts of this rig today? It was replaced in 2002 by an American LaFrance. Freeport always had a diverse roster and had some of the best looking rigs on Long Island. I'm always curious as to where they wind up after the village is done with them. This rig had a 1500GPM sister 1987 Hahn which was just on e-Bay for a second listing having been just replaced earlier this spring.

I believe I have "found" another 84/92! I just got Walt McCall's new book for Christmas and there is a shot of a Hahn/Superior on page 254. The rig is/was in service as Engine 219 in Bostonia, CA. It's listed as a 1984 there, but in the "Southern California Fire Service Directory", it is listed as a 1983, with capacities of 1500/500. If anyone has a pic they can post, I'd sure appreciate it. The photo in Walt's book is small, making it difficult to positively identify it as a 84/92, but I think it is. Hahn sold five custom chassis to Superior during the time the 84/92 chassis was being built:



HCC-72, delivered 8-31-82 Unknown

HCC-77, delivered 12-29-82 Unknown

HCC-80, delivered 6-3-83 Unknown

HCC-96, delivered 8-20-84 sold to Fullerton, CA

HCC-97, delivered 8-20-84 sold to Bismark, ND (92" cab)



The Bostonia rig could be HCC-80. If anyone has pics of any of these Hahn/Superior rigs, please post them. Thanks!

And it most likely is, that date I posted was the delivery date of the chassis by Hahn to Superior. Nice shot!
