It was known as "The General Ike". Originally red. Owned by Larry Taylor

That is not owned by Larry Taylor , it is owned by a man who lives in Winter Park FL, he is ex Westchester County NY. It is at that location for a few years now for the repaint back to red and restore. Will make it to FL at some point. It is called " The General Ike because the President himself comissioned the rig in 1957. I belive that it was at his summer hometown and was on duty for aircraft landings. I was told by the owner that is the only President to comission a fire engine to this day ! My B-95 is a few # away and is also a 1957 and both rigs are in the B-Model Mack Fire book by Harvey!
