Around 1959 they changed to the squared off fenders that this once has, and in 1970 they changed to a more flat windshield with a different grille design. So this is about a 1959-1969 model. The lightbar on the truck is too new for this scene though, it's a Federal Jetsonic from the late 1980s or early 1990s. It's a Maxim S, and it looks to be a mid mount (probably 75 foot) ladder and not a pumper. -- Last edit: 2010-12-05 06:34:56
