As for the old engine photo, heres something to confuse things further. I have them adding during the war in 1942 an enclosed cab International, Oren 500-gpm. In 1947 I have them getting an enclosed Chevy, Maxim 500-gpm. The photo looks to me like the International Oren. Of course corrections, additions welcome.

OK, Rusty, so lets say that the Chevy I posted earlier is the 47 Chevy/Maxim(chassis produced 1941-47) and the 42 IH/Oren is this one in a Chuck Satterfield postcard.The IH looks like an open cab, too. FCVFD bought Maxim and Oren custom engines (open-cabs) in the 50's. According to FCVFD's website, the old station was under construction in 1934.
