Back on Siegel St the gasoline pump on the Apparatus floor was an old hand cranked one drawing Gasoline from a Tank encased in concrete in the cellar ....when we got the 1969 ALF it was Diesel so we were issued a 275 Gallon Tank ( just like a home oil tank ) that was placed on the Apparatus...
A good thing about the International as well as the Firebrand Pumpers was instead of two individual Jump Seats on either side of the Motor they had a horizontal long Bench behind the Chauf & Officer allowing FFs to get on or off on either side of the Rig.

^^^ Not too long after these 1968 Mack Pumpers were purchased by the FDNY the Hose Bed cover frame became more squared off to allow more room for Members on top of the Hose Load both for re packing Hose & or for protection if need be....also a Metal Awning was installed over the Back Step.
