Not sure it's the same truck![[Image: theoutfit1973avi_snapshot_014052_20150328_184711.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/5982/theoutfit1973avi_snapshot_014052_20150328_184711.jpg) |

Different. The main pic is a TDA (tractor-drawn aerial; also known as a tiller). Tillers do not have any fire hose or pumps, but most newer ones have pre-piped waterways fed by an engine. It's likely the engine behind it. |

Kinda leaning towards Maxim. It has the same curvature as a Pirsch, but the grille looks like that of a Maxim (Pirsch's is horizontal versus Maxim being vertical). Some of the Maxims did have similarly-styled noses, but they began to feature quad headlights vs duals seen here.![[Image: image.40.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/19541/image.40.jpg) ![[Image: image.41.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/19541/image.41.jpg) |
