Just noticed that both sides L & R of equipment compartments are body work by Pierce. The lap doors, drip rail, tread plate flare on top of the compartments, Slam D-handle latches, brown/chrome marker tag above the rear electrical outlet, and brake arrow tail lights. All of the Mack CF's that I have seen until the late 1970s had the trailer tail lights extending on a piece of thin metal from the side of the rear body. The inside rear body including the rear compartment appears to the Mack. Could the side compartments suffered rust damage?
Great Find Lindsay, thanks again for sharing your photos love seeing the full apparatus detail of the lone star state.

I saw a Pierce logo on the pump panel but paid no attention to it.
The rework of the cabinets may have been due to rust as it came from PA.
This is only the third yellow apparatus I have taken pictures of. I normally don't shoot yellow, but since it is a Mack....
