Hopefully I'll be able straighten out the various chassis and Foam Boss body styles.
The top photo is a CDN Foam Boss Model 1041-1 that was originally built for Iraq, two were built. They ended up staying in Canada and one went to Vancouver and the other to Grande Prairie Alberta. These trucks were built on SCOT CR3 4X4 chassis with a CDN designed cab.
The second photo is of a SMI chassis truck that was built for Transport Canada as the Mark 14. The cab and chassis were built in the SMI Bathurst New Brunswick facility and the cab and chassis were then delivered to CDN for mounting of the body.
Lastly, Six Oshkosh T-44 chassis were delivered to CDN for installation of the CDN cab and body. This is why the Vancouver truck and the DND trucks have a very similar cab style. These six trucks were always meant to be delivered to DND, never overseas. These were CDN Model 1041-18.
To add even further confusion this style of cab was also used on the American LaFrance chassis for the joint venture crash truck that was delivered to Fort Lauderdale Executive airport. This was CDN Model 1041-16
CDN Foam Boss used the SCOT C1FD cab for four crash trucks that were sent to Iran.
A 3000 US gallon capacity crash truck was delivered to Venezuela and it too was mounted on a SCOT chassis but the cab was a modifies C1FD style.
In total eight SCOT chassis crash trucks were delivered by CDN Foam Boss that I am aware of, according to the information that I have from the Nordic archives.
