Frank:
The re-tractor/tiller refurb looks like an Ahrens-Fox, particularly given the Dahill hoist, airtanks and compressor. The photo was taken at the Long Island City Mack Factory. I believe that Coopersburg's 1942 pumper was a rehab of an older Ford "AA"/Hale "Minuteman". Coopersburg also had a 1920's White/Hale, but my photo of that rig was taken in the late 1940's-1950's, eliminating it's use in the rehab. The '42 Mack was in service until Coopersburg purchased a Mack R-608F 750 gpm pumper apx. 1970.
