San Bernardino National Forest, Model 61, IH
The Model 61 is simply the Model 60 using a standard cab truck, with the addition of an enclosed crew position at the front of the pumper body. This resulted when the major truck manufacturers suggested large crew cab trucks were not profitable, and they were going to be discontinued. Although crew cabs never were discontinued, this crew in the pumper body style lasted into the early 90s with the first batch of Model 62s.
