In 1963 this American LaFrance 100 ft midmount ladder was delivered new to Elkins Park (Montgomery Co.),PA. It was painted their traditional color of Tampa Beige. Originally a semi-cab, the Whitten fiberglass cab cover was added later. In 1974 it was sold to Sellersville (Bucks Co.),PA. The Tampa Beige color was initially retained as per the photo. In 1984 it was repainted all red. In 1990 it was rehabed at the Amer LaFr service facility at Dunmore,PA. The rehab included a new Century cab, new Detroit diesel motor, rebuilt automatic trans and hydraulic outriggers and a new red paint job. In 2006 it was sold to Fieldsboro (Burlington Co.),NJ. In 2007 it was offered for sale again.[/quote]
