@@TumaTime Love the Intro on this one too! :) (AF Vet!:) Sorry I been MIA as of late, in Just over 2 yrs! My Father and All Three of My "Fur Babies" have all died! My Youngest Cat, my Albino Squeak was the last, just over 1 month ago! So I have dealing with that of course. due to all this CXovid-19 remaining crap, Increasing Prices, putting Manufacturing behind 8 mos to a year or in some cases more, Behind. Equipment at Auction going for in some cases 10 times what it's worth! I quit the auctions for awhile, found some Land in Florida, so been busy with that! I have my Dead Father to Thank posthumanously (I guess is the word!) for it too! But I digress! Anyway, so why I been MIA. But great Video, as always! :) Like I said; Love those Fire Trucks! :) Take care my friend!

The Macks were likely used by Curt Weldon during his congressional campaigns. He was a volunteer firefighter and part of the Congressional Fire Services Caucus.
First truck is about a 46 to 50 E Mack. Second is an L model, same years. Maxim is a 1958 or so, dual headlights were a requirment starting in 58. On a side note, Mack, Ward LaFrance, and Crown all used Maxim ladders on their aerials.
They look great after all these years later thanks job well done you should be proud love respect and appreciate you guys thanks I wonder if they still work right ?! Joe
The first Mack truck is in the post WW2 1946-1950 the 2nd Mack is also around 1947 the Maxim is sometime in the late 40's to 1950& the International is late 1960's to mid 1970's. The first Mack is a municipal pumper, the second one appears to have several ladders,so it could have been a "quint" or 5 purpose truck maybe for rescue equipment also: the international looks to be a municipal pumper; I didn't see enough of the other truck to tell what it was; but they all have history & it would be interesting to know what department they were from & if any of them would be worth restoring? Thanks for the brief look at some historical trucks!
