Those single axle Seagraves are my favorite looking and sounding trucks FDNY has had.

Only thing about the 80's Seagraves they did not have a great steering radius compared to the Seagraves with phone booth.

This was one of the last Mack C models from the early '60s. Their double headlights are distinctive. E45 had one of these. If the photo is from the Bronx it's likely the truck is either L31 or L38. Any idea what borough?

Almost identical to the 1936 model Mack except for the roof on the cab and Subway style straps across the back step. I believe this was the first frontline FDNY apparatus to have an enclosed cab.
