I also remember both '53 and '57 Fords.  Like you, I wish we could find some pictures.

Let's not forget the '70 Ford Sedans....FDNY had them for Staff Chiefs & Marshalls.....NYPD had a whole lot for Patrol.....i had a used one for awhile as my personal vehicle ....very roomy as well as fast (it was the only Ford i ever owned).......glad to see that the FDNY continues to "Buy American"......can't say the same for NYPD w/their Nissan Altimas though .

Bn 50 is a1938 DeSoto;  here's a coupe restored:

Bn 44 (1947) is a pre-war Plymouth, Dodge or DeSoto (tough to say for sure without seeing the front);  pre-war because of the tiny taillights.

The division 7 car is a 1977 Fury
The second picture has 4 chiefs cars in it. The main 2 are a  Late 70s/Early 1980s Chevy impala (My guess is its Car 1), and a 1976 Pontiac Lemans. The background has a suburban and a 77/78 Fury
