    FDNY Chief Officer Cars and Vehicles

      This is a 1968 Plymouth, the reason why it's not a '67 is the little side marker lights on the front and rear fenders that were on the 1968 models from all the car manufacturers.

    You're right on the '57 Ford.  Also notice the Ward LaFrance C.D. pumper at the right.

    USS CONSTELLATION Fire at Bklyn Navy Yard 1960

      I have the WNYF (1st Issue of 1961) with a load of stats like how many hoselines (65), air cylinders (640), etc. but only mentions that 4 fireboats responded.
