I think you might be correct.

The Ford F-600 "Booster Truck" looks to have an Imperial Body.

Ah the memories. This was the first fire company I joined (1983). This was the second out engine from Independent's Willow Street Fire House. The Mack MB was first out. The TASC was floated between the two other stations. The rescue squad did vehicle rescue back in those days so it was used more as a utility truck then a true rescue.

Looking at the body work...especially the rear fenders...I'm thinking it's either an Oren, or maybe a Maxim.
And I agree, Scott, awesome stuff...gotta love the oldies!
Engine 1 to all units, we've got a glow in the sky!
If God's not a Hokie, Then why do the leaves turn Maroon and Orange in the Fall?

I think this rig was sold at the begining of the 1980's to the then NEWLY formed Holland Township Fire Co in Hunterdon County.This is the only shot I have of the rig when Station 15 used it as Engine 15-62. Can anyone confrim this?
