Quebec City, Quebec
1962 Thibault 100 ft.
This was Thibault's first custom rearmount on their AWIT chassis. They had built others using Marigus and Merryweather ladders in the 1950's on their earlier chassis. It was also the first custom rearmount aerial in North America where the entire vehicle was built by the same manufacturer. It was delivered with manual jacks which were replaced with hydraulic ones at some unknown date. Montreal got a similar one in 1965 - Ladder 405. There were only two rearmounts with this AWIT cab before Thibault switched to the Cincinnati cab.
