this is not the same rig. chassis CF611F10-1742 was an FDNY, Ex-E73 and then E10. then Glenn Springs-Pauline, and also Inman. that rig was a 1975.
This rig is a 1972 or a very early 73, you can tell because 1972/early 73 was the only year that those bullet type rooflights were installed. the cab has the slanted canopy roof, FDNY's 1972's were fully enclosed. that could have been changed with a refurb.another thing is the body, it has the beavertail body. FDNY's rigs did not have them and I have never seen an amthor rehab with one. it also has a booster reel in a spot that an FDNY rig could not handle one. but the biggest thing is the pump panel. its not an FDNY pump panel. FDNY rigs had 2 large compound gauges, this one has all small ones. that detail would not be changed in a rehab.
if anyone sees the rig again, if they could shoot a clear shot of the pump panel plate that would be great, and also take a look to see if the original horn button is there, the original department will be imprinted on it.
