I show Gilford owning a 1972 and 1979. Looks to be the 1972, definitely not the 1979 - that would have had the wide cab.

Howie, the '79 ran as E-1 and is now sitting on Rt 16 in Albany, NH at a construction company in REALLY rough shape. I got some pics of it posted earlier in either this thread or the Maxim one back in August of this year.
For the life of me I cannot find my notes on the Gainesville truck. Since I didn't shoot it, its not in my photo database of specs. The Gainesville Seagrave and a few others were in a warehouse unable to start at the time, so I took a few quick notes/job numbers, but I have no idea what I done with the paper.

The second one is a 1954 Ford / Pirsch that originally came from somewhere in Alabama according to the guy at the junkyard. The cab was taken off by him and put on a pickup truck. The pirsch serial number is PE-72. Drivers side.

This one came from Palmetto,GA according to Bill F's Pirsch database, delivered 8/15/1955.

Been meaning to stop and shoot that myself, but I never notice it until I've passed it.
As for the ALF in Brentwood, it has been there close to 30 years. Has been a restaurant most of that time,albeit different types. IIRC, it may have been a Patchogue engine.
Where was the Merrick quad? I may know some people at the LIAFAA who might be interested in it's whereabouts.
You were a short distance from my house when you took the Brentwood pic..
Stay safe, Brothers.
Kill 'em all, let Allah sort 'em out. NEVER forget 9/11/01 WTC, Pentagon, Pa. Avenge the acts with NO mercy.
Thanks to ALL the Brothers who were there 9/11/01 and afterwards. Words can never say what appreciation we have for you all.

We are in the process of replacing 8 Freightliner engines. Here are two ols reserve pumpers that are hearding to auction. Firstup is Reserve Engine 63 a 1988 Spartan E\-One that once served Engine 4 in Catonsville. The little 6v92 has had it.
Next up is Reserve Engine 69 a 1990 Grumman. This engine served as Engine 8 in Fullerton. The twin to this wagon was sent to Engine 9 when new. Again motor shot in this one too.

We brought that Mack back from upstate Roxbury in Nov. 2008 with the hopes of restoring it as a parade rig. So far no luck getting it done, but at least she's in town and not still sitting in the field.
