Scott- additional info:
This is a 1949 Ford F-/Hahn, 750/650. The front-mount pump is an Ingersoll-Rand Cameron. The full width enclosed body was just coming into being at Hahn when it was built. It has pump-and-roll capability therefore it is still in service and used for field fires. The ladders and hard suction slid into the body at the rear. The booster reel is in an open compartment at the back step. Port Clinton (Schuylkill Co.),PA is the next community north of Hamburg (Berks Co.),PA which was the home of Hahn. This truck is essentially unchanged from the time it was delivered.
