Truck 2 in New Haven once operated this 1964 Seagrave 100' TDA, that was rebuilt with a new Seagrave tractor in 1976. Mark A.Redman photo - Juergen Kiefer collection.

I'll agree with the 1976 cab, but the trailer is I believe a 1957 model. Truck 1 was a 1956 Seagrave 100' tiller that saw service until 1984 when it was replaced by the 1984 Sutphen tower. Truck 2 was a 1957 Seagrave 100' tiller that had its cab replaced. As far as I know, these were to only 2 100' sticks in New Haven prior to 1960. Truck 3 and 5 were Seagrave 65' junior aerials, Truck 4 recieved a 100' Seagrave tiller when they purchased a 1960 model from Greenwich in the 1970's. As for Truck 6, I'm not sure on that one, will have to do some research on that.
