The City of Cullman, AL has had a fire department for many, many years. This Mack would have to have gone to one of the small VFD's with a Cullman mailing address. Was the dealer involved called "Good Hope"? They are located in Cullman. I've photographed several Mack C's in Alabama over the years, recording the serial numbers on most. Do you have the number for the former Parkesburg rig?

Dave & Mike,
I do not have the serial number on the truck. I always thought it was purchased new by Parkesburg. Maybe the company in NJ ordered it, but never took delivery of it ? Most likely was purchased by Good Hope. You know how good some info comes out of organizations when you ask them a question in regards to prior apparatus. I would lucky if I get the right state most times.

I think it was out of service well before the Bronto was even ordered. I thought that a collector had purchased it, but sadly no. Anyone know where it served in the FDNY.
